6'3 260lbs with 4.7 speed, I like the measurements, know nothing about him besides that though.

Love the recovery and TD at the 1 min mark...and that was vs Clemson, not some small school.

I like Dorin but he's a major tweener.

well, i guess we just found our 260+ OLB .... will have to go back and check -- but i think Boomer had this guy as a 'person of interest' in his column

Mike Mayock, NFL Network

The Dolphins just took Chris McCoy from Middle Tennessee State, another small school DE projected to convert to OLB in a 3-4 defense. McCoy has a quick first step, is a natural bender and has a great motor. Like most of these small school conversion projects, he's undersized.

Maybe Mayock is referring to him being undersized for a DE but as a LB he's a beast. Well physically, one site has him listed at 6-4 Wt: 277. . I'm looking forward to seeing these guys compete. I'm also secretly hoping one of these guys replaces Crowder.

That was my first thought... I can't see Channing being a Dolphin after this year.

Including Dansby thats 5 new LB's to the roster. Some one has to go.

Coming from an FAU fan, I can seriously tell you that he pisses me off to no end whenever we played him. So a pretty good pick on our part.

Problem is, none of the LB's we drafted are ILBs.

We may have picked up a few playmakers in this draft. This McCoy kid and Edds both look pretty promising.
