Grade the Dolphins Draft

[Dave Gray]

At first, I added - and + on there, but the list was too long.  So, you may have to explain a bit.

[StL FinFan]

I said C+ but we really don't know until we see how these players develop.  Overall, I was satisfied, but I wish they would have adressed some other issues.

  I give it a solid B.  Drafted three offensive lineman, to help shore up the offensive line.  Drafted Phillip Merling, and Kendall Langford to help fix this weak run defense, and to provide a more effective pass rush.  Dotson is a project at NT, much like Soliai was last year.  Parmele will offset the loss of Booker, and Hilliard will probably be a special teams guy.  Chad Henne is a battle tested starter from a bigtime program.  Can Henne start as a rookie in the NFL?  He started as a true freshman at Michigan, time will tell.

I would have liked a WR.

B

 Rebuilding the O & D lines first, Getting a drop-back quarterback in Henne .  Jake Long  steps into the left tackle spot while Merling and Langford give the team a much-needed  talent on the d- line. 

Would have been nice to get Flacco.

Would have been nice to get Flacco.

Why the love for him?

For some reason, I can't vote in my own poll.

[Sunstroke]

I'd vote for 'incomplete" if that were an option...but think it will grade out over time to be a solid B+.

5 years from now I hope you are correct.

[bsfins]

Hmm I'm not able vote,But I've got the results 

[Sunstroke]

Filed under "these numbers don't seem to match up"... It shows that 16 total people have voted, with 4 votes for B and 2 votes for C.

Hmmmm...

This is like taking a test in class and handing in your paper with 25 of the 50 questions completed.

As this same question in a couple years.

I gave it a B and I'm pretty confident that the players will bear this out.  I would have liked to see a LB (Connor) and at least one DB project and I still wonder about trading up for Murphy but overall it's actually a pretty decent haul.  I can certainly understand the focus on lineman though but one rather than 2 special teams type RB's would be enough.
