George Selvie

I don't know about him.  As good as he's looking tonight against WVU, he's a pass rush specialist in the 4-3.  In Parcells 3-4, he'll have to either get used to going against bigger guys, or switch to linebacker, neither of which are an easy feat at the pro level.

I'm still thinking the best available cornerback with the first round pick, and then an OL and WR in the second round. But what the hell do I know?

He wouldn't make it as a DE in our system...rush OLB would be perfect...it might take him a little while to get used to coverage schemes, but I think he would be a beast in our 3-4

Selvie is never going to be heard from again after he gets drafted.

why do you say that?

[run_to_win]

The Dolphins need a pass rushers more than anything. 

A pro-bowl caliber guard or center would be nice also.

  I agree.  Vernon Ghoston v2.0

I have to go with DB.  Reciever, we'll have Camarillo and Bess next year, but we need depth at the position more than anything else.

I'd use the first 5 picks we have on DBs and use the rest on reciever.  We're bound to hit on at least 3 of them.

As crazy as this looks in print, I'd have to agree somewhat.  FS (see Renaldo Hill) is an easy upgrade and Andre Goodman is hit and miss--thankfully more hit recently.  I like Will Allen but he can't hang with the NFL elite.  I don't know who's playing nickel this week but it probably won't be the same guy as last week.  I'd go 4- or 5-wide against the Fins half of each game as long as I had two decent receivers and a possession receiver.   

I'd like to see a Zach Thomas type ILB taken in the first two rounds.  Akin Ayodele's tackle totals aren't that impressive but Crowder gets it done.  We could get a big NT late or trade for one.  It's crazy how stout the Ravens and Steelers front seven are...and fast.

Picking up at least one stud safety or corner via free agency sounds like a safer alternative to the five-DB-draft deal.  The management surely knows we need DBs if we all find it to be so.  I'm not too concerned about the O because we have enough people in place to wait until next draft unless a Calvin Johson/Randy Moss physical freak is available.  The OL will be better with Long's maturity and Donald Thomas and Justin Smiley coming back from injury.  That Ndukwe guy sucks balls though.

Will Allen is a better corner than a lot of people give him credit for.  He can't hang with the NFL elite?  What corner can? 

[Dolphin-UK]

I think the state our team is in we can't have too many quality linemen.  If we can have a solid OL for when Henne steps up, we are going to be in good stead both rushing and passing.

Working on the principle of taking the most talent availible when you pick, focus on OL and DB, and try and go for 50/50.

Our WR's, RB's and QB are servicable, and our DL and LB's are too.upgrade the OL because we can, and DB's because we need too, and we're moving in the right direction.

[Sunstroke]

I like the general idea of going whole hog on as many blue chip DBs as we can harvest at draft time and hope that most of them develop as expected...but we still really do have other needs on this team. No disrespect to Ginn, Camarillo or Bess, but none of them are true #1 WRs. We could use some more help on the O-line and at LB as well.

I'd like to see 3 DBs in this draft class, with two coming in the first 4 rounds, and best available talent at OL, WR and LB sprinkled in between.

[NADS]

True.  Big name corners don't really come to the forefront like in the 90's and the new PI rules are insane.  I've never seen so many receivers push off and not get called for it. 

[dolfan13]

i follow the longhorns religiously, and catch a lot of big 12 games... crabtree is a stud, and will be worth whatever to pay him.

that said, for the dolphins, i'd like to continue to focus on defense... one to look out for is brian orakpo. guy is the real deal monster, but i doubt he'll last past #10.

Nah, while not Pro bowl Calibur, Crowder does a more then adequate job. Remember...........Zach wasn't taken until the 6th round.    We need Mountain sized D Linemen in the make of Bowens and Gardner. Those guys helped Zach do what he did. If I remember correctly Zack bought his Dline Rolexs when he went to his first Probowl.
