    Good Post

    To answer the bolded question IMO it is somewhat bot. Elite talent are elite talent and they will be good players regardless. Other players however, the coaching could be a factor in whether they pan out or not. Coaches play a role, and are a major influence, but the player that falters because of coaching, they arent as mentally tough as they should be. some players that are good players trying to fit a bad coaches sytem or methods will become good players with better coaching, others just fold and are done after bad coaching, they are not mentally tough. Again just my opinion.

    I didn't look because that wasn't the point of the exercise. The trend became clear just going alphabetically through team by team and seeing significant investment in the positions each time. It just pointed out that the Dolphins weren't really overspending at all on the OL this year.

    So having 1 draft pick going to the OL out of 9 isn't really the 'same old dolphins'. Especially when the right side is as putrid as it is and the depth being due for a large overhaul. I think we could see 2 of these undrafted OL make the final 53. With possibly a waiver wire pickup also. That depth is going to look radically different.
