I just wanted to ask the question...If the Dolphins do not draft a OLB in the first round, which of the remaining OLBs would u prefer.
I havent looked into the draft much but I like Dakota Washington(FSU) or whatever his name is. But Please let me know what you think

I know I started the Spiller - McCluster debate thread just having fun but I think our 1st rounder needs to be at NT. They are very rare out of the draft and there is a few good ones to be had.
With that said; your question is a tough one for many reasons. There are gobs of talent at LB in this draft and even some of the quick DE's could be used at OLB or even ILB. This is a very tough question.
My personal favorite in the OLB department is Daryl Washington, TCU. People like Sergio Kindle, Texas or Jason Pierre-Paul, South Florida could be used multiple ways and could play both DT or OLB.
There is all kinds of talent available in this draft which looks to be custom made for the Dolphins this year. The last time I saw a draft this impressive we drafted "The Killer B's" way back when. I am really very excited about this upcoming season. I think we will be pleasantly surprised.smahtaz, RickyBobby, padre31 and 2 others like this. -

I say trade Greg Camarillio and/or Thigpen of White for a 2nd or 3rd round pick.
I would like to see the Phins pick up Terence Cody in the 2nd roundTrowa and RickyBobby like this. -
We really are in a good spot because we have so many options and a very good draft position. The deals that we could make with a little imagination just boggle the mind.

OLB's are being forecast all over the place. Jerry Hughes from TCU is being touted as a 1st round pick but he can easilly fall to round two. Same with Ricky Sapp. There should be some excellent OLB talent when we pick in round two.

I really think this Derrick Morgan rumor is for real though. I don't think we'll be picking OLB at 43 especially any WOLBs like Sapp and to a lesser degree perhaps even Hughes.

Well, I think we need more speed at Lb, whomever we take, last yr the Lb's were as good as lawn chairs in pass coverage, only JT was even remotely effective.

Well I certainly hope we add SOMEONE to that list.
But yes Cammy and or Turner are expandable. -
I was high on him and had read that he may be moved to OLB in the pros, but most likely he wont and will be a WILL and that is not one of our pressing needs. -
Anyway, back on topic, I think there will be many OLB options later in the draft. That's why even though I like Morgan, I hope we don't go OLB at #12.
One guy who might be interesting is Brandon Spikes. I know he's an ILB, but I think he has the flexibility to play OLB too. And we all know how much this regime likes versatility.PhinsRDbest and padre31 like this. -
He'd probably fill the same role Dansby is supposed to do now; be the more athletic of the two inside linebackers in a 3-4. The big question is how much weight will his frame allow him to carry effectively. He's added a few pounds already and he just around 230 now. His play isn't the question IMO, it's his ability to hold up due to weight concerns.Pariah likes this. -
Hughes is likely to go in the first or if he has a bad day, the early second round. He will likely creep a little higher as the draft gets closer. He tested well, and his speed off the edge is very, very good. And, he just moves so fluidly for a man his size. He easily moves the best out of any convert prospect IMO.slickj101 likes this. -
the OLB's were bad last season. can we have relentless pass rush
in the so called playoff run taylor put up 1 sack and eleven tackles
in the last four games -
Your personal mock draft?
Go phins!!!!!!!! -
I just refuse to live quietly my man. I coach kids soccer, I'm doing little league in 3 weeks, I run, I work out, (when my knees allow me, although I do have to take time off here and there). When I can't walk, thats when I'll stop moving.

Koa Misi is one of my favorites right now. I like Misi in the 2nd. Thaddeus Gibson is another. Guys I like in the later rounds are Robert Johnson from Rutgers, Kevin Basped from Nevada, and Dexter Davis from Arizona State. Few others just can't remember their names at the moment. If we can come up with Misi in the 2nd with like an Earl Thomas or Dez Bryant in the first I'd be one happy man.
