How would you grade the Dolphins draft?

I think he was likely speaking in terms of production and overall ability, rather than as a complete physical clone.

 

I'd give it a B
I liked that we added Stills and Parker but I would have picked Gordon in the first.
I actually like the Phillips pick, our run D should be MUCH better this year and we should be able to free up our LBs with a really good Dline. We have to stop the run better, period.
Seemed like some of the later guys will make the team and contribute. I really think Stills will be good for us and including him in the draft I think makes it a lot better. Ryan has a lot more weapons than he did last year.

 

Yeah. More about the production. I'm no expert on parker but I want to see how much separation he can get in the NFL. If he can get separation he could be great but if he can't he'll still be good but nothing special imo.i only saw two games of his and that was my main concern with him

 

Those are valid concerns but let's be real Hitman Hartline had trouble separating from snails. If Parker can run a few basic routes he'll be an upgrade.

 

Adam Schein NFL.com seems to have really liked our draft.. giving up #1. I think maybe he just really has a crush on Parker.

Chambers never had a real QB throwing him the ball his entire time in Miami. I'm pretty sure Miami had multiple starting QB's every year he was in Miami, in fact. And a new offensive coordinator and system to adapt to, every couple of years. Chambers isn't Jerry Rice, but he was a very good receiver. I wish Marino had him at some point in his career. Fact is, Chambers could of been a 80-90 catch, perennial 1000 yard receiver if Miami could of ever settled the QB situation. *See Wes Welker and his evolution to a 1,000 yard WR under Brady vs. a 60 rec receiver in Miami with Joey Harrington, Culpepper, etc...

Parker may or may not ever live up to the #14 pick, but if he's Chris Chambers 2.0, he'll be super productive. *I'm not saying he is Chambers 2.0*

 

C for the draft, until proven otherwise

 

You could say that for every team's draft every year though. That's the opposite of fun.
