Miami Dolphins: GRADE: B- Jake Long fills a need at left tackle, and I liked Bill Parcells' selection of Clemson DE Phillip Merling with the 32nd overall pick because he's solid against the run. The pick of Chad Henne in the second round tells you Miami is not sold on John Beck; however, I'm not sold on Henne. He has accuracy issues and a long delivery and he isn't mobile. I do like his toughness and he does have some of those intangibles you look for in a quarterback. Defensive end Kendall Langford is a big body, but I thought he was somewhat of a reach after an average senior season. Shawn Murphy really came on as a guard and he could battle for a starting spot. Jalen Parmele was a workhorse at Toledo, a big running back who also has some speed. And Lionel Dotson was a good seventh-round pick who should be able to help at nose tackle.
He likes most of our picks and only a b-? lol. weird. He's not good at knowing and explaining why he feels so-so about our picks.
I don't care what they rate us, as long as these boys produce on the field, the Win column will be the only rating I'll care about.
I would have made it a B, rather than a B-, but I can't really argue with most of his comments. We reached on the second day.
