Please no RB in the 1st round.

Especially this year.  The top 2 RBs coming out this year are Eitienne of Clemson who has trouble holding onto the ball and Harris of Alabama who has size, speed, good hands, can block, etc. but is considered to be a lesser talent than a lot of the Bama RBs of the last few years.  And there really isn't a huge dropoff from them to some of the other RBs coming out this year.  I like Kenny Gainwell from Memphis who should be available in the 2nd or 3rd round or even the big bruiser Stevenson from Oklahoma.  Larry Rountree looked good at the Senior Bowl workouts and he might even be available in the 4th round.

I wouldn't mind drafting BOTH of them in the second round, after drafting wide receivers with our first two picks in the first.

Both first rounders on WRs and both seconds rounders on RBs? So, you think Miami should continue to ignore their O-line?

I don't agree with this drafting strategy but we haven't ignored the O-Line, we just put a bunch of rookies on it and are waiting for them to improve. I'm still not against drafting Sewell and pushing Hunt inside to really shore things up but the unit has improved from the historic lows of 2019.

Miami has to ignore the O-line, how else can some people continue to complain about the O-line??  lol  Roll Eyes

Miami could probably still get the best RB of the draft with their 3rd pick of the "1st round", the 35th overall pick.
