The 2018 NFL Draft is just 2 days away! What better time to take a look at a position the Miami Dolphins have largely ignored or failed to adequately fill in over a decade! Nope, not QB, although I’m sure some of you feel that way, no it’s TE! If you just look at the names we’ve had in at TE it doesn’t seem nearly as bad, but trust me, we didn’t have that player when they were producing or healthy. Julius Thomas, Jordan Cameron, Dion Sims, Charles Clay, Anthony Fasano, David Martin and finally Randy McMichael. McMichael was our best TE out of this group, and David Martin was a nice #2 TE, but the rest, fughettaboutit! It’s time to change that, and this particular draft has pretty decent depth, and I’d feel pretty comfortable with at least 3 prospects, so we do have a chance of finally drafting a TE early that will help this offense and make a major impact as a receiver.
Mike Gesicki 6’5 247 Penn State
Mike Gesicki would be my first choice at TE. He’s not the best blocker at this point, in fact, he may be the player least likely to block, but I do think he may be the most dangerous receiver at TE. You can teach a player to block, but you can’t teach speed and athleticism, and Mike Gesicki has that in spades. At 6’5 247, with long 34″ arms, Gesicki ran the 40 in 4.54 seconds, put up 22 reps of 225, had an amazing 41.5″ vertical, a very fast 4.1 20 YD shuttle, and a 129″ broad jump. This kid screams explosiveness. Gesicki made his presence felt as a Junior at Penn State, and had his breakout season. He finished with 48 receptions for 679 yards and 5 TD’s, a very nice 14.5YPR. In his Senior season, Gesicki caught 57 passes for 563 yards and 9 TD’s. Mike Gesicki is the highest rated TE at NFL.com by a slight margin at 5.92. Besides the long arms, at the end of those long arms are some big mitts, 10 1/8″ mitts. I think Gesicki could be the missing piece that gets our offense going. Having that fast TE threatening the seam will open things for our running backs, and also our other receivers. We haven’t had a TE commanding any attention in far too long.
*********************************************************************
Hayden Hurst 6’4 250 South Carolina
Hurst is also a very athletic TE prospect, He was actually in the Pittsburgh Pirates organization as a pitcher, but left baseball and walked on at S. Carolina as a TE. Hurst finally got his big chance his Sophomore year, and he took advantage of that chance and finished the season with 48 catches for 616 yards and a TD. His Junior year was pretty consistent with his last season, 44 catches for 559 yards and 2 TD’s. The one negative about Hurst is he will be a relatively old rookie at 25 years old. Hurst did well at the combine as well, though not as good as Gesicki, running a 4.67 40, and a 31.5″ vertical. Hurst is a better blocker than Gesicki, and at least has blocked, unlike Gesicki who is mainly used as a receiver. Hurst has very good hands, registering only 1 drop against 100 receptions. Hurst is rated at 5.90, 2nd highest rated TE.
***********************************************************************
Dallas Goedert 6’5 255 South Dakota State
Dallas Goedert has a lot of receptions on his resume, and many of them one handed acrobatic grabs as he is pictured making above. He’s got talent, and although he’s Rock’s favorite, he worries me a bit. First off, he played at South Dakota St. where he was a man among boys. The guy covering him in that pic above looks smaller than me! This is what worries me, he hasn’t played against tough coverage, and bigger defenders, and he surely will in the NFL. An average LB in the NFL will likely be heads and shoulders better than anything he’s faced in college, so I think he has some challenges ahead of him. Goedert didn’t run the 40 at the combine or his pro day due to a hamstring injury, but he did some drills at his pro day. Dallas had a nice 35″ vertical and a 10.1′ broad jump. He also ran a nice 4.06 in the 20 YD shuttle, as well as a quick 6.87 in the 3 cone drill. Goedert’s best season was his Junior year where he caught 92 passes for 1293 yards and 11 TD’s. He’s rated as the 3rd best TE by NFL.com at 5.87
***************************************************************
Ian Thomas 6’4 259 Indiana
Thomas is one of the more well rounded TE’s in the draft. He’s a good receiver as well as a good blocker as an in line TE. He doesn’t have great speed, but he’s fast enough. He actually has a remarkable story as far his upbringing, after losing both his parents at 9 years, and being raised by siblings. He’s known as “Humble and focused” at Indiana, and scouts say he loves football. Thomas had his best season as a Senior after he transferred from community college a year earlier. He caught 25 passes for 376 yards and 5 TD’s. Although he didn’t perform the bench press at the combine or his pro day, Thomas is considered a powerful athlete. He has good run after the catch ability and is very physical separating from would be tacklers. Thomas does need coaching on route running and may have some more upside in that regard. Thomas is somewhat of an unfinished product having played only 2 seasons, really 1 full season of college ball. Thomas is rated at 5.82 at NFL.com
*****************************************************************
Dalton Schultz 6’6 242 Stanford
Schultz is actually at the other end of the spectrum from what I want for the Dolphins, because his actually a better blocking TE than receiver. He may be one of the best blockers at TE in this draft. His receiving stats are relatively dismal, his Senior year totals were 22 catches for 212 yards and 3 TD’s. He wouldn’t be the guy I’d want as our 1st TE, but I wouldn’t mind him as our 2nd TE, with Gesicki spread out or in the slot. He was a big part of the run game at Stanford and relied heavily as a run blocker. He has the size, and I’m sure he’ll add even more weight once he hits a regular NFL lifting routine. He’s expected to go around the 3rd or 4th RD, and honestly I wouldn’t mind doubling up on TE’s, although MarQueis Gray isn’t bad as a 2nd TE as a blocker either. Schultz is rated at 5.70 at NFL.com
************************************************************
I know some of you have your favorites later in the draft, but I think it’s crucial to our team’s success that we get one of the top TE prospects in this draft, meaning IMO either Gesicki, Hurst or Goedert. I feel if they pass on these guys, we’ll end with yet another JAG at the TE position, continuing the tradition here in MIA of ignoring the TE position.
PS – If you intend on attending this year’s Fest game, please vote on the poll on the right side underneath the 2018 schedule. This way we can choose a date early and get those reservations taken care of! Thanks, and happy voting!
Finsmob Unleashed 
Armando has very good sources within the Dolphins org and I like his reporting when it’s about what he hears is going on. But like many sports pundits, opinions are just that like the rest of us.
There is some new buzz out there that this draft only has about 15 what they call blue chip prospects or translated to 1st round grades even though you have to pick someone. So as some here have said, just take the BPA at # 11and move on. Or if you get an offer to trade down and acquire a couple of extra picks, that could be an option too. The compensation would have to be worth it, not just to do it.

But we’re talking Football!
Which means – No need to trade up and get Rosen, he’ll be there for you at #12. NOT!!!!
Rosen sure is the red-headed step child going into the draft. But who the heck is this guy talking to who will say what the Phins will or will not do if Rosen is there? Seems smart guy in the know would say, “just hoping Rosen falls to us…..might even trade up for him.”
Stanger – I don’t buy that Rosen is anything but a top 10 pick. I’d be willing to bet some big bucks with anyone who thinks otherwise.
Think right now teams are throwing out a whole bunch of stuff and at least some reporters grab on cause it make s for something to write about. At the end of the day, chances are something like the Rosen drop looks like this:
When I see reports on a guy “falling like a rock” shortly before the draft, I believe the truth is the exact opposite. Lol
I agree 100% – In fact, I think any reports, even guys moving up. Boards are set, they don’t fluctuate at this point, it’s just false drama
Yep — few days ago it was your choice as to whether it would be Mayfield or Allen who would be falling to us. Guess we know it won’t be Darnold.
I think those of us who know what we’re talking about KNOW that Josh Rosen isn’t going to drop like a rock.
This is just another media narrative (FAKE NEWS) to get more people to tune into the Draft. Create false controversy, the more people will tune in… and I’m TIRED OF IT!!!
Josh Rosen — by nearly EVERY account — is the most pro-ready QB in this draft class.
He screams BUF or ARZ to me.

Not EVERYONE, just half of everyone.
Lets see how can i create a rumor…well an L.A. radio station in the 80s did this, Jackass Jimmy Kimmel was the sports guy at that time, they made up a word to see how far it would go. The word was jackhole and it could be heard on tv and radio by people that had no idea the word had been made up.
So yeah, that’s what is happening with anything that’s getting legs now.
what I am hearing if Josh Rosen is…………..
He is hearing it hear, but that doesn’t matter. I read it on the internet it must be true.
And before the draft
Rockphin is exceedingly handsome, is about to win the lottery jackpot and have 100’s of beautiful women lining up to spend time with him.
WOOOOOO HOOOOOOO! NICE! Glad to hear that!
I hate all Boston teams, but that city is beautiful. NHL game 7 about to start.
“I’d be willing to bet some big bucks with anyone who thinks otherwise.”
huh, really?
Damn, did posting that pic break the blog?
Brady, any Brady will do that.
Actually Rosen would be damn near perfect for the Giants!
Sony Michel is still one of my favorite players in this draft.
Along with Shaquem (the fact that he’s a UCF player only makes it easier to love him)
So, Josh Rosen had 33 turn overs in 30 games and no one sees that as a problem? two concussions and a shoulder injury doesn’t bother anyone?
I know. I’m thinking about taking Mike’s action
But they love his arm too much though
You guys wanna in Ocala Howie style give a final guess of who our pick will be?
Oinkchibald Snoutington
Mike Gesicki TE, Penn State
You must be thinking what you’re always thinking – a trade down.
Some day the’ll listen to my prayers. 🙂 Would take Geskicki a 2019 first and maybe some spare change like a 2018 4th in a second.
Edmunds, not who i want, but…
With a trade down to 15, Vea, and id be ok with that pick, but no Vea at 11.
T minus 24 hours (and ten minutes)
Is he from UPig?
Yes
Home of the Porkers
Not worried about Rosen’s concussions, Brady has had about 47 of them.
Wait, he hasnt been sacked that many times in his career, the league wont allow it.
And those are just the ones Giselle told us about

And I even funked up yet again!!! SMH @ myself! 😡

Oh Edmunds was still there. I thought he was gone.
I have this feeling, and it is only a feeling, kind of similar to that feeling I get late in the season when the Dolphins have a lead and the game is critical to making the playoffs and there is 4 minutes left in the game….
that we are going to trade down and pick a boring pick and make me stay up way later watching to see them pick a boring pick
Good for Ruben!
One less team needing a LB!!!!!!!!!!!!
You really believe her, I doesn’t change anything.

“So how about we appreciate the so-called “Cracker Jack GM Decoder Ring” peeps we have here? I think we have a LOT of good and intelligent posters here!”
M – It’s nothing personal. I just can’t help myself when people take themselves too seriously. Especially when they make declarative statements as if conjecture was fact. I have to make fun of them. In the interrogation world it’s called “Pride and Ego Down” and it is used to elicit a particular response.
You talkin bout me?
Ha – You are about the last person here to take yourself seriously. You, Rock, and Piggy are more like the class clowns.
It’s Snoutington not Snortington
I hear Chris Foester is a big fan of Snortington
I fixed it
Son, I have no idea who our 1st rd pick will be. I was just talking to a friend who is a Giants fan and he wants Barkley. I said until we see what the Browns and Giants do 1-2, we’ll all have a better idea how the rest of it plays out. Jets at #3 take a QB no doubt. Then what happens at 4, 5 and 6? Those are the trade up spots unless said teams want to stay put. To me 7-11 then goes one after the other.
Not sure if we have something up our sleeve or we’ll just stay put. My guess is we will likely select in no particular order – Smith, Edmunds, Fitzpatrick, James or Ward. I wish the TEs were rated higher but it seems they have 2-4 rd grades.
None of us know, come on man, put a name down and roll with it.
I’m saying Minkah because 3 maybe 4 QB’s may be gone and James, Nelson, Smith, Ward and Edmunds are off the board. Of course Barkley long gone as well.
Obviously Chubb gone
Mayock, in his mock, had the Raiders taking McGlinchy leaving Edmunds available but it they take Edmunds that leaves Minkah for us.
BOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Your Picks:
Round 1 Pick 11: Smith, Roquan, ILB/OLB, Georgia (A)
Round 2 Pick 10: Goedert, Dallas, TE, South Dakota State (A-)
Round 3 Pick 9: Ragnow, Frank, C/OG, Arkansas (A-)
Round 4 Pick 23: Bates III, Jessie, FS, Wake Forest (A+)
Round 4 Pick 30: Falk, Luke, QB, Washington State (A+)
Round 6 Pick 35: Jackson, Justin, RB, Northwestern (A+)
Round 7 Pick 5: Atkins, John, DT, Georgia (A+)
Round 7 Pick 11: Neal, Siran, SS, Jacksonville State (A+)
Mayock has Ragnow going in the first round
He’s a dick!
He can’t spell Daniels!
That’s funny
Sonny – Son of Ferrell for me please
👍
Edmunds, Terrell (SS) Virginia Tech?
Son, I like Minkah.
The problem is…who doesnt.
What am I supposed to say? He asked for a pick. LOL
When defenses play in sub packages 65-70% of the time why am I looking at LB with Alonso, McMillan, Anthony, Allen and Hull? If McDonald doubles down as a S/LB and we have Jones who is the same, I’d rather have a DB who can add more coverage. We’re not playing 3 LBs most downs. I get the LB desire, but I think Fitzpatrick makes the most sense. I’d trade up a few spots to get him too because I think he makes us a better team.
Exactly how I feel, he’s on top of my wish list, but I don’t think he’ll still be there.
Who will be our first round pick? One name only.

Happy Draft Day! Happy now at least, can’t tell you how I’ll feel about 10PM tonight or so
Ok, since we haven’t done it yet, I think it’s time to create the list.
PLAYER YOU WANT / PLAYER YOU THINK WE PICK
I’ll start . . . . Mayfield/Edmunds
Smith / Edmunds
Did my picture of Barkley in his mask post yet? I had a hell of a time loading it.
Please!
The way I’m thinking is that Mayfield is the kind of spark, the leader type that energize this offense. Tannehill is a good guy, but he’s not a charismatic leader. Not every QB is. I think it could present an excellent scenario for us as well. Tannehill manages to hold off Mayfield this season, and plays well. We then have a tradeable commodity for next season, hopefully a high pick worthy commodity. That’s a prefect scenario. We trade Tannehill who played well and proved healthy at 31, and we have our QB for the next decade, a real leader. UNfortunately, I don’t think we get Mayfield, but getting Edmunds to me is an excellent consolation prize. I really like him, and would be thrilled to have him here.
Son, are you gonna play the game? Want/Pick?
I have to decide who I want. I gave up on wanting a QB, there’s no way we take one, the love for Tannehill is immense.
So I’m torn between Smith, Edmunds and Minkah
If Cleveland takes Mayfield I wonder if the Giants take Darnold instead of Barkley. That would leave only Allen and Rosen for the AFC East.
Or as has been on here they trade it to Buffalo. My hope is the Gmen take a QB, that leaves the jets with 3rd choice.
I don’t think that changes the Giants strategy. I think it is Barkley all the way. I think they still have a window with Eli and signing of Solder seems to indicate that want to put more pieces around Eli. What better piece than Barkley
I’ll play mike,,, Barkley/Barkley/Barkley
Minkah, Edmunds – Mike
with the departure of Joe Thomas the Browns need a Tackle, they are thin at CB and WR, so Barkley may be safe after 4
Barkley is gone at 2
Unless you believe the hype Mayfield goes #1.
Doesn’t change what the Giants do imo and I don’t believe the hype. No. 1 is between Darnold and Allen
Player I want: Josh Allen
Player I think we pick: Derwin James
I can’t beleive I’m the only one who wants to select Oinkchibald!
Least surprising headline to day: “Offensive tweets from Josh Allen surface hours before NFL draft.” He tweeted stuff five years ago like “@FelipeeeeMelo_: Bout to show up these Niggas at pong” and used the same N phrase a few other times. No indication he was talking about actual people of color.
Please may he have a bong mask.
There’s a lot of talk today about Mayfiled going #1 overall
If that happens it’s going to shake up the draft a bit
I am not buying it and if Cleveland does that well there is a reason why they are the Browns
He don’t FN know
Cleveland would be better off drafting Barkley no. 1 and taking a QB 4 be it Mayfield Darnold or Rosen than drafting Mayfield at 1
Agree, if you don’t know who to pick wait until #4.
Long as you are cool with three of the four QBs would be a way to go. Have a feeling the Browns will have their guy though. Just human nature, especially when talking franchise QB.
This makes only if they have the top 3 QBs rated relatively even
So why in the name of smokescreen should we believe this? This is what I’m hearing…WTF is that? Should we now disregard all the BS that’s been put out there, because some hack says it like that?
When did Mayfield become the darling? Whole lot of mocks had his the faller out of the top 4.
Matt Forte on NFL radio yesterday rated Mayfield the #5 QB behind Lamar Jackson because Jackson is the superior athlete
I’ll be pissed if Buff or jets get Darnold, because Clev can’t figure it out.

Matt Forte on NFL radio yesterday rated Mayfield the #5 QB behind Lamar Jackson because Jackson is the superior athlete
I don’t want to bach Matt Forte, but that is just fucking stupid to say.
Tannehill is a far superior athlete than Tom Brady. So what?
In terms of draft potential you tend to rank by those with superior athletic skills. The draft is more about projection of talent not college production. Also Tom Brady is an outlier. He is the exception not the rule in terms of draft projection
Remember those little gold fish you could win if the ping pong ball bounced right at the carnival? If they are released in the right lake they can grow to 2-4 pounds.
This guy looks like he has Hulk hands
Bass go nuts over goldfish, it’s illegal to use them as bait in S FL
I’m guessing illegal cause they are viewed as an invasive species……reason why the article I read was there. They get big enough and can push out the locals.
Barkleys Devalued position “RB” may cause him to slide, I know TBaum wants a stud RB like he had in NY which BTW carried them to 2 AFC champions, It surely wasn’t Sanchez who carried them.
If there’s a way to get Barkley i would do it!
Seems only way to get him would involved a trade at least to #5.
with Denver, Exactly, we give up James whom Elway covets
Alright time for my daily routine. Off to the gym for an hour of cardio, then to radiation and then for an afternoon nap to deal with the fatigue. Hopefully then I can stay up and watch the draft tonight. Talk to you peeps later
I’m surprised you can handle cardio with radiation!
I think it is important for me to keep my stamina level up but I am wiped out in the afternoon. Peace
Get well my friend
Stay green, Brother!
Light at the end of the tunnel.
Mike E,
Want: Quenton Nelson
Pick: Roquan Smith
If Nelson falls some…that is the only trade up I would favor, but am talking like up to #8 or #9.
Do we have a change in draft strat from a last minute gas mask again?
Allen/Rosen
Anyway, Polian questioned why so many had QB as Miami’s top need. Said “What’s wrong with T-hill?” “I see nothing wrong with him outside of his injury.” Said if he never got injured, he would be considered at the bottom of the top 10 in the league but because of his injury, they say that Miami needs one. Sure, you draft one but for Miami you can wait. If you are not rebuilding then you build around who you have like Jax has done with Bortles. Says he feels Miami’s top need is TE, DT or LB. Says Miami needs to solidify the TE position. Says when Indy doubled down on TE when they took Fleener, Luck flourished and that is why the Pats would always go out and sign a F/A TE to pair with Gronk. Also said Miami needs to solidify their DT rotation. What I took from this is he feels it would be a mistake for Miami to draft a QB in the 1st.
I was like WTF, he has been reading my mind and wondered if any of the Tanyhaters heard this. LOL
I think Mayfield is the best pick the browns can make
He’s the safest
I never really cared for the top of this an class
When it comes down to it, down the line I can see a player like Falk or Rudolph being the best qb in this class. I think Mayfield has a chance as well so I like the lick for the browns if they are going to take a qb
Darnold is just not my cup of tea. I don’t think he has any business being the #1 overall pick
I have real issues with Allen and Jackson and their accuracy
I think Rosen can be good . He’s got a few warts but he’s another guy I think a team can build around – if his head is on straight. But is it?
Alright I will give you the non pork want/need
Want Nelson
Pick Edmunds maybe Ridley
I would be happy with any of those
I don’t think the Ridley thing is as crazy as most
I would actually be pretty happy with any of these guys: Mayfield, Rosen, Smith, Edmunds, Nelson, Ridley or Guice
A little less enthusiastic about a safety but still happy about fitzpatrick or James
Im pretty open this draft

Completely true there have been many good QB’s who have no personalities at all, or that are not liked.
Eli Manning comes to mind. NO charisma.
Tom Brady is a dick, players still believe in him.
BailBondMIke, What does Polian know? There are people on here. They have eyes…..and they disagree…..
😉
Anyone else think this is a lazy take from a professional sports writer
I like the Allen and Mayfield comments, the other 2 I agree are lazy.
Mike, put me down for Minka/Minkah
You want to spell his name wrong but you think we will spell it right?
lol yes
Rock, I know. Everyone has been disagreeing all frickin’ off season. LOL I just happen to agree with him and there might be one or two more who do (Tim, help me out Bro) but the majority on here probably don’t agree with what he said. I think we all agree with him on the TE situation though.
Mike E, thought Nelson was considered out of the equation. Put me down also for wanting Nelson and picking Smith.
It’s kinda fuzzy Mike – I think it was intended to be a realistic want, but there are no guidelines, so I changed it to Nelson. Like I think there’s a shot we can get Mayfield, it’s just not likely
Reason I don’t like Rosen is I watched him in the game last year when they lost to Memphis when they were ranked at the beginning of the season. He got out played and out gunned by Riley Ferguson. He made some real bonehead plays and really bad throws under pressure leading to two bad INT’s costing them the game. It was Cutler like. Good call Armondo.
Rosen does make one nice TD throw to a TE on a seam route but he blew the game in the second half with 2 bad picks.

Don’t know what happened there. Can’t copy and paste on this POS computer. Anyway, I don’t care for Rosen.
Sonny – Since you’re Italian, did anyone in your family say “minga”, like WTF?
That’s all I think of with Minkah Fitzpatrick

I think Mayfield is the best pick the browns can make
He’s the safest

Disagree. He has the lowest ceiling of the top 5 QBs. Safest is probably Rosen as he is most pro ready and able to start day 1
Yet Rosen is least right now the 4th man out. But QBs are a weird thing…..two of the top four — if not bust — will have a pretty average to blow NFL starter QB career. And these guys have been inspected by “the experts” since they were in high school.
Speaking of lazy, that 2 out of 4 won’t make it is as lazy as it gets. Use past draft stats…cime on man😉
Rock – Good teams have good leaders, and Mayfield was a great leader in college. That’s undisputed. He wouldn’t be a great leader unless he played well enough, but that combo is huge.
Tom Brady is a dick, but he’s a great leader. His teammates believe in him, listen to him.
Staying realistic I’ll go with Fitzpatrick/James.
Tim wants a safety
I think Fitzpatrick would add a nice dimension to our defense because he can play some corner, nickel and safety. I don’t think Smith will be there for us but possibly Edmunds. I also think we can get a LB in other rounds. For some reason I keep thinking it will be James though.
I’m guessing after the night is over we’ll have a real nice LB to talk about and how he fits in…..but gonna be a whole lot more discussion if we go QB or trade up (QB or not). Trade down and we will all be happy, cause that just makes sense. 🙂
WYO approved!
