Some of you regulars here have been doing mock drafts for 7 months or so and have probably done hundreds each. Guess what? That day is actually here, so that means no more mock drafts for at least 6 months. What’s more important than that is we will get a glimpse as to how this organization will be run by GM Chris Grier, and the new staff of Head Coach Brian Flores. Unfortunately, the team can’t be rebuilt in just one draft and undoubtedly, some will be frustrated with what they choose to address in this first draft of the rebuild process. Rome wasn’t built in one day and either will our team.
My impression from the regulars here at finsmobunleashed is that the majority of you feel we should and will address the trenches, OL and DL first, and then go on from there. Most of you know me and know that I disagree with that. No position on the field is more important than the QB, and since we don’t have a QB (please don’t tell me that stop gap Ryan Fitzpatrick is our QB), we need to finally get that franchise QB. If I haven’t heard a thousand times “Tank for Tua” I haven’t heard it once. We’re not tanking, it’s a long process taking a team apart and then filling the roster in the guise of the GM and Head Coach together. We Dolphins fans should know this well, we’ve been doing some form of this for the last couple of decades (without success I must say).
You all know I want a QB, and that QB is Dwayne Haskins. Yes, I’m aware he only played 1 year, but I feel that’s overblown. Either the guy has it, or he doesn’t. He understands football concepts. He has above average arm talent, with not only the ability to put NFL pace on the ball but NFL touch as well. Yes, he doesn’t run well (fast), but I want my QB throwing TD’s, not diving for the endzone and getting clobbered like Carson Wentz. I love his delivery, and I give O Rob props for noticing that it’s similar to Dan Marino. Relax . . . The way he squares his shoulders and drives the ball with his hips reminds me of Marino. Maybe because he was throwing to receivers like Duper and Clayton helped him, I’m sure it did, as Parris Campbell, Terry Mclaurin and Johnnie Dixon made up a fearsome group of WR’s.
I know some of you will disagree. We can get the best OL in this draft, and what does that give us? Tunsil is up and coming and becoming one of the better LT’s in football, and say we draft Jawaan Taylor, so now we have a legit set of bookends. Still a huge void at QB. So you’re thinking build up those trenches even more, so we take a DE/LB pass rusher in RD 2, and then a DT in RD 3. Some of you want to window dress your mocks and justify them with a 6th RD QB and say we addressed the QB position. Well, maybe you did, but it’s pretty unlikely.
Next year has at the moment 3 highly touted QB’s that will be in the 2020 NFL Draft. Tua Tagovailoa, Justin Herbert and possible Jake Fromm if he comes out after his Junior season at Georgia. If we draft our QB for the future now (Haskins), and we finish this season in the top 5 for next year’s draft, which is very likely due to the lack of talent here, we could be sitting in a place of high demand come April of 2020. Just imagine Fitz plays most of the season, and then somewhere around game 14 we give Haskins his first game action and after learning behind the veteran Fitz, Haskins acquits himself very nicely and continues to do so for the next 2 games. So now we have our franchise QB ready for 2020, and we’re sitting at #1 – #3 in the 2020 NFL Draft. I see multiple draft picks coming our way, and I mean multiple ones and 2’s. Y’all want to rebuild, THAT’S how you do it!
Anyhow . . . I can dream. Enjoy your draft day, I hope we get what you want, or something that makes you just as happy! GO DOLPHINS!
Another few players I hope we’re interested in . . . DT Dexter Lawrence, DE/LB Chase Winovich , OL Tytus Howard, DE Charles Omenihu, DE Justin Hollins, CB Michael Jackson (2 gloves!), OL Yodny Cajuste

Goodell sounded like Bob Griese trying to say Kley-lin’s name, sheeesh
Allen isn’t a lb is he ?? 😳
He’s edge
Oops. I nailed the position 😜
Bucs: Devin White
Maybe one too many vicodin today for Goodell
Martinis
Whites a good pick for them
Tennessee Walker
He’ll look like “Weekend at Bernie’s” in the late 20’s, they’ll be dragging him out there
LB, getting interesting
So can the Giants ignore Josh Allen? I think not.
1- Cardinals: Kyler Murray
2- 49ers: Nick Bosa
3- stej: Quinnen Williams
4- Raiders: Clelin Ferrell
5- Bucs: Devin White
No trades yet
Mike E,
I have always had a huge respect for the articles you write, the time you dedicate to this blog, and the love you have for everyone here. I look forward to reading them as you document the process for the Dolphin fans during the season. Typically, I love it as you seem to state the facts you’ve gathered and objectively convey them. I think you keep me informed and catch me up. Awesome!!! I trust you more than the media as I tend to get my information here.
Today’s article was unlike any other I have seen you write. It was very opinionated and I disagreed with that opinion. That’s all I’m saying. I thought we were allowed to do that here.
For the record, I submitted an “anonymous” article on Bully-gate and it was never published. Administrators knowing my identity must have deemed an anonymous author as not good enough. Oh well.
Shit…now I’m going to have to read Mike’s article.
lol…it’s ok….just trying to apologize.
Josh Allen or Dwayne Haskins here for the G-Men. Hmmm…
Giants: Daniel Jones
Okay then
Wow
Hah Hah hah hah
What The Fuck???!!!
WTF???????????????????????
Their QB of the future.
Holy Shit.
Reach
Better than Lock and Haskins
WOW
Nice, thank you Giants
Just WOW

Giants fans looking like WTF just happened?

You guys are dumbfounded but that kid is a good QB prospect. This isn’t shocking for me
That’s 2 unexpected picks, dropping talent downward to us.
That’s 2
We just need 2 more bone heads and we’ll have a “NO trade back” player!
Denver and Cincy, with Lock and Haskins… will Haskins drop to 13????????????
Past
please please please
Perfect. We can trade back and get a bundle,
PUsh us down a superstar then.
Jags on the clock. Gotta be an O-Lineman, right?
Krishna

I didn’t think what you posted was mean spirited

You are an admin — seems if we go and find the bullygate article all is good….. and would be a great read now. But all meant in good heart regardless.
He sure does and I acknowledge that…….wish I could be at the fest and take him to dinner. Mike E….you know that! Right?
Jags OL ??
Jax needs Oline!
Hope they don’t
Krishna,
Enjoy the Draft, my friend! Address your grievances AFTER. You’re a good dude, IMO!
There’s no grievance….be clear about that and don’t spread rumors.
I had him rated higher than Haskins or Lock.
Sheesh, watching this on ABC. Why are they talking to Talyor Swift in a clown bathrobe?!!!! Talk about the f’ing draft picks!

O hate when they take their kids with them always makes me nervous
They drafted Josh Allen and his family apparently
Hey — if I had a kid that age would bring up too, but then would hope didn’t have one at his age (hope that doesn’t sound harsh).

5 picks
2 players
Oliver and Haskins
as Toba said, probably Fant but maybe Hockenson.
Krishna – Of course you’re allowed to disagree my friend, I wouldn’t want it any other way. You don’t need to apologize, I was offended by anything you said whatsoever. I can see what you’re saying about my article, I gave what others POV’s were and shot it down, but was just stating my opinion on the matter, I’m more than happy to listen to rebuttals. Keep on truckin’ bud! I appreciate what you said as well, thank you for that.
Dick
Lions: TJ Hockenson

Actually they need a TE too so maybe Fant.
Feeling terrible like Oliver or Wilkins goes to Buffalo.
Wyo – I’m gonna get a fatty when we draft Haskins.
Both Oliver and Haskins are on the board
Which is the thing of pig dreams
I want Oliver
This draft is working out very well for our needs
Yessir!!!
Look what the cat dragged in. 🙂
Oliver is someone they really liked
I’d lean to oliver here too
Will Haskins get past Denver and Cincy?
Washington may trade up in front of us
Good luck to yer Islanders buddy. It’s wide open now
Oliver if he’s there
Skins trsde with us to get Haskins?
Lock to Denver, Haskins to Cincy or Washington in a trade up.
