1:37

And I want to thank you guys for

1:39

tuning in on this special

1:42

Saturday night edition of Locked on Dolphins. We

1:45

are looking at day three of

1:47

the 2024 NFL draft and getting

1:49

into it with five picks made

1:51

throughout the course of the day. And

1:54

including one in the fourth round that Dolphins weren't scheduled to make.

1:56

We're getting into all of that. But today's episode is all about

1:58

that. of locked on dolphins

2:01

is brought to you by monopoly go I'll

2:03

admit it I do have a competitive side

2:05

and it's a big fan of monopoly go

2:07

2:11

2:13

play five picks one in the

2:15

fourth one in the fifth two in the sixth one

2:19

in the seventh and

2:21

the dolphins did not take

2:24

long to create a bit

2:26

of a splash on

2:28

day three of the 2024 NFL

2:30

Draft after drafting Chop Robinson at

2:33

number 21 overall and Patrick Paul at

2:35

55 overall and we did recap shows

2:37

on both of those players and can

2:39

I just say like when

2:42

I'm effusively positive about something that's

2:44

happened I get accused of gassing

2:46

up Chris Greer all the time

2:48

and I offered some constructive criticism on the

2:50

the picks at 21 and 55 for

2:52

things that I had a different vision for and and

2:55

I get hammered for for being overtly

2:57

negative we all want

2:59

the dolphins we all love the dolphins right I

3:04

guess that's the good feedback that you're being honest when

3:07

both sides of the fence at some point

3:09

or another take exception with what you say

3:14

but I see the pathway for success for the

3:16

dolphins early picks and

3:18

then you combine that with a day three

3:20

that you weren't we're going to get overtly

3:23

positive on this show talking about day three

3:25

because I think they did the Miami

3:27

Dolphins did a wonderful job on day three and

3:30

for as much of the discussion

3:33

early when the pre-draft process

3:35

was we're going to go BPA

3:37

early and then we're going

3:39

to maybe fill some of our needs later in the

3:42

draft I think the dolphins got BPA

3:44

selections on day three that shine very

3:46

brightly for this team and

3:48

we're going to talk about all of them but we're going to start

3:51

with the pick that

3:54

didn't exist at the start of day three which

3:56

was the 120th overall selection this is one of

3:58

one of seemingly a dozen

4:00

trades that that Howie Roseman in the Philadelphia Eagles

4:02

made on draft weekend and The

4:06

Dolphins sent a 2025 third

4:08

round draft choice to Philadelphia for

4:10

the 120th pick in the NFL draft And

4:13

you knew and that often it's kind of admitted to

4:15

on Thursday night They

4:18

were trying to get back up they were trying

4:21

to create another pick and you

4:23

kind of got the sense from how they were talking about it

4:25

and some of the whispers about it that They

4:27

were maybe trying to get up without

4:31

and add an extra pick to the class and

4:35

They did that by pulling from

4:38

their third round next year And

4:40

we'll talk about 2025 draft capital notes at the

4:42

very end of the show But

4:45

of course the expectation and how you handle

4:47

free agency and outgoing free agents Gives

4:50

you a little bit more flexibility than not be at a

4:52

draft capital Deficit next year and

4:54

do this and they do

4:56

traditionally say that a pick a year in advance

4:59

Is worth one round less in the current year? So

5:01

they send the three they get back a four there's

5:04

a middle of the fourth round draft thing and Doing

5:09

that and keeping 158 allows the Dolphins

5:11

to draft Jalen Wright to the running back

5:13

out of the University of Tennessee This

5:16

is a 210 pound runner with four three

5:18

speed high four three speed played

5:21

in An

5:23

offense that doesn't necessarily have a ton of

5:26

overlap with with an NFL offense.

5:28

It's a very Wide

5:30

open college based offense lot of unorthodox

5:32

splits of the wide receivers creates

5:35

a lot of grass for the runners But

5:37

there's elements of Jalen Wright That

5:40

I think are very appealing For

5:43

the Dolphins to add to the mix One of

5:45

the things is I think he's he might be

5:47

the most effective gap runner on

5:49

the roster right now You

5:52

think about Ricky Mostert and

5:54

Devon H and and their vision and

5:57

zone feel and their ability to cut

5:59

and stick their foot in the ground and

6:01

explode out of there while stretching to the

6:03

outside with a lot of the outside zone stuff. I

6:07

think Jalen writes in Tennessee with just how

6:09

their offense ran. There was a lot of

6:11

inside runs there. Um, but

6:14

capable of getting downhill between the tackles. But if

6:16

you get him a crease and you pop the

6:18

crease, he'll gouge it. Just ask

6:20

the university of Florida. Um,

6:23

it's a player who, who showed

6:25

some growth and strides in

6:27

past protection and in the

6:29

passing game this past year, he, he saw

6:32

a major boost Jalen Wright did in his

6:34

contributions in the passing game. Um,

6:37

and his responsibilities in past protection was something

6:39

that needed to grow for that to happen.

6:41

And you saw that this past

6:43

season, there were some people that thought this was

6:45

a top three back in the class. Uh,

6:48

ball security is kind of the big

6:51

hiccup point for him, uh, that

6:54

you'll be looking for, uh, the dolphins

6:56

ironing out for him to be the best version

6:58

of himself that you possibly can be. Five,

7:01

10 and a half, 210 pounds, uh,

7:05

four three eight 40 yard dash 38

7:07

inch vertical jump, what

7:09

12 feet two inches on doing that math off

7:11

the top of my head, I mean, that's a

7:14

98th percentile standing broad jump, like super

7:16

explosive guy into

7:19

the mix with HN

7:22

and mostert. And

7:25

Jeff Wilson still here. And

7:28

I think the thing that, that as I processed that

7:30

pick as it was made that

7:33

I immediately went to was

7:36

passing down situations, whether you're in a

7:38

21 personnel

7:40

with two backs and a tight end, or

7:43

if you're in a

7:45

two personnel, which would be no tight ends and

7:47

two backs and you go through wide receivers out

7:50

on the field, the

7:52

ability to have Jamon Wright and

7:54

Devon HN or Reheem mostert. But

7:57

I think HN with his versatility and then right with what

7:59

he can do. pass protection that can

8:01

be a foil that also runs

8:03

routes and can get out into space a little bit they

8:05

didn't do too much of that at Tennessee but but

8:07

you see the potential there that's

8:11

kind of the recipe that that

8:14

you think about how Miami can

8:16

play these talents off of each

8:19

other and the two-back passing

8:21

down stuff which we talked about last year

8:23

with with mostert and a Chan you

8:25

saw some success with it but

8:28

down the stretch they got a little banged up they

8:31

kind of had to go away from it that's

8:34

plus a more dynamic tight end for when

8:36

you're in 21 personnel with John Smith gives

8:39

you I think more players that can threaten

8:41

the middle of the field so if you had

8:44

John Smith, Jalen Wright, Devon

8:47

HN, Jalen Lottle, Tyree Kill theoretically at

8:49

some point in time all in the

8:51

field at the same time that poses

8:53

a lot of spacing

8:55

challenges and I

8:57

think that's a potential for

8:59

this Dolphins team is we really dig into

9:02

Jalen Wright and who he is and knowing

9:04

that he's a big bigger backing he can

9:06

run in between the tackles but he can

9:08

pass protect all

9:11

of those layers I think give you

9:13

some really interesting stuff to add into

9:15

the mix for what

9:17

the Dolphins have offensively but

9:20

this was so this was a

9:23

player that I had 100th overall

9:26

on my Dolphins

9:28

specific big board so he was a top 100 player

9:30

for me they get him at 1 20

9:33

there's a plus value right and if you care

9:36

about my rankings I would like to think if

9:38

you're here listening and you at least to some degree

9:40

care about my opinion because it's the show's about right

9:42

is me not just saying what happened but exploring

9:45

it and sharing my insight my perspective

9:47

on it it's

9:50

a plus value on day three I think

9:53

if you were to ask a lot of the

9:55

analytics based people they would maybe take some exception

9:58

with trading a future draft pick for this year

10:00

draft pick, the draft of running back. But I

10:03

think this has a little bit of offensive

10:05

weapon potential to it as well.

10:07

I think there's enough on that menu. And

10:10

when you're compounding speed and

10:12

getting more in the identity of what you are, but it's

10:15

a bigger player and a different body type than what

10:17

you have, I think there's a

10:19

lot of good here with this pick of jail

10:21

and right. And again, because the Dolphins are protected

10:24

with what they're expecting for compensatory picks

10:27

to get another day to back next year as

10:29

a result of free agency net gains and losses,

10:33

you're really taking

10:36

that strategy and just sliding down

10:38

the draft order in the

10:40

third round a little bit versus what your

10:42

organic pick would be, which is what you've traded away

10:44

because you can't trade picks you haven't been assigned yet.

10:48

So we're going to shift gears and go into round

10:50

five and round six here next on this episode of

10:52

Lockdown Dolphins, where I think the Dolphins got a couple

10:55

of really, really good BPA picks.

10:57

We're going to take our focus there next

10:59

year on Lockdown Dolphins. Stick with us. It's

is a highway, and on it there

11:30

will be many chicken sandwiches. But there's

11:33

only one mid-crispy, so go ahead and

11:35

hit the turn signal if you know

11:37

about this juicy gem of

11:39

a detour. If

11:48

you guys paid attention to the individual

11:52

player profiles, and then we did the

11:54

positional previews for the 2024 NFL draft,

11:58

You would know one of the. The. Goal.

12:02

Gold Star players that I think would have

12:04

been an outstanding fit for the Dolphins. Was.

12:06

Colorado State pass rusher Mohammad

12:09

Camorra. And the dolphins

12:11

actually have him fall into their lap

12:13

at one fifty eighth. Overall.

12:15

And that's a super exciting pick!

12:18

Up for me for the Dolphins

12:20

to make. I think there was

12:22

a pretty clear ah opportunity for

12:24

a player like Muhammad Camorra to

12:26

come to Miami. And. To learn

12:29

from a player like Shaq Beret. Who.

12:31

Are side of also being Colorado? Say alumni

12:33

has like a lot of parallels. With.

12:36

His play style and his place stature in the

12:38

way that he plays the game. And

12:41

dog. Know. If you were to

12:43

assign Dairies Robinson who was the Missouri defensive

12:45

lineman who with the Arizona in the first

12:47

round. If you were to

12:50

assign him. As. An

12:52

Interview Defensive linemen it for many teens. He

12:54

is an interior defensive linemen. This

12:57

means with Shop Robinson and and Muhammad

12:59

Camorra, the Dolphins are getting my fourth

13:01

and fifth ranked pass rushers in this

13:03

class. And.

13:05

One of them just so happens to the come

13:07

off the board in the first round. the other

13:09

just so happens come off the more at one

13:12

fifty eight. Overall, and some of the reason Mohamad

13:14

Camorra does slip a little bit in the draft

13:16

is because he is not a. Tradition

13:19

all the old for

13:21

the edge spots. Are.

13:23

Six One, two hundred and forty pounds.

13:26

Ah, He's just short asserting to add

13:29

a half inch or like as third,

13:31

eleventh, and and tenth percentile, respectively. So

13:33

the size profiles? not overly exciting. But.

13:36

Linear explosiveness exists. You're in for

13:38

five. One five, eighteen

13:40

yards split this ninety first percentile for his

13:42

sister's. It's. Like there's is. Guess

13:45

they're there is a size. Of

13:48

a hardship hear that the

13:50

creates. A little bit more of a

13:52

narrow scope in which he can play the game. But.

13:55

They're still like physical tools or work

13:57

with. And he's He's an absolute dog.

14:00

Watching. Him play he plays hard

14:03

and he plays physical and he

14:05

place stout because he's so compact.

14:08

Oh. This is not a big high

14:10

padded player. Authors of one have

14:12

the punched down him with consistency.

14:15

and because of that he has a little less

14:17

through bit of slippery this as a result. And.

14:20

There's some meaningful players that that our

14:22

own like the comparable list for him.

14:25

Or his out when you just look

14:28

at his athletic profile. Page. Or

14:30

mock draft double.com which kind of keeps track of

14:32

like what percentile all your measurements are. The

14:35

one I saw the most parallels with with

14:37

on the List From a play style perspective,

14:39

idiotic and Doc Way. Who.

14:42

Was a third round pick out of Maryland

14:44

in two thousand and sixteen. Has

14:46

been kind of become a pass rush

14:49

mercenary. By thought

14:51

I think Camorra has the same first

14:53

step. Low. Pads Good place

14:55

drink the plate or horizontal and

14:57

and lateral contact. And.

15:00

Can turn a pretty good quarter.

15:03

So. I to I think this is somebody who

15:05

you put into this pass rush rotation. When.

15:09

Everybody's healthy. Yeah, Philips and Shove

15:11

and I got Shop Robinson with

15:13

all the explosiveness that he has.

15:16

And. All of my questions for Chop

15:18

Robinson are not really in the pass

15:20

rush side of things. I think he

15:22

continued expand his his his game. As.

15:25

A pass rusher. But.

15:27

I feel much more optimistic about Shop

15:29

Robinson. As. A pass rusher than

15:32

I do or a run defender right now. Coming into

15:34

the Liam, we'll see how quickly they are able to

15:36

get their hands on him in facility growth with him.

15:39

Then you've Chef merits. And.

15:41

Imo Hanukkah more he he got a

15:43

group of five guys room fi deep

15:45

with like some absolute dogs. Some.

15:48

Of these guys are absolute. Also these guys are

15:50

all world potential. Some of these guys are savvy

15:52

that's that are long in the tooth. And

15:55

it's a really nice groups that shoe

15:57

compare to now I think with the

15:59

you. Players that have been out and

16:01

into the mix. I'm.

16:03

You compare it to that pass rush room that

16:06

we saw in the playoff game. And

16:08

obviously this is that often seem to

16:10

do this every year. There's

16:12

a position group that's a problem. Is

16:15

he gives ya really hard time. And.

16:18

They decide. Not. This year.

16:21

And. They don't address. They.

16:23

Invest in for the Dolphins to

16:25

invest to have their six draft

16:28

picks. Total. Six.

16:30

Seven. I'm.

16:33

Not a mask Ice One, two, three, four,

16:36

five, six, seven to their seven draft picks.

16:39

Into the edge room. Or

16:42

and can get my fourth and fifth ranked

16:44

edge. Guys if your class fine. Gary's Robinson

16:46

is a an injured offensive lineman. He.

16:49

Got a couple good players are this class.

16:51

Players. That I think don't come with our questions,

16:53

but that's. That's.

16:56

Where I think they're since I'm actually some

16:58

contrasting. Strengths. Of of

17:00

those two players in shop Robinson and

17:02

Hanukkah more I see think their their

17:04

strengths and weaknesses in their pros and

17:06

cons. Create. A nice foil

17:08

among each other to to do some

17:11

different things. So.

17:13

I was head over heels. Are

17:15

the find out the dolphins were hit Mohammed Camorra. Ah,

17:18

There a couple of players at that spot and I

17:20

was really light and and will was fun was. Dot.

17:22

Ten picks out I had looked at

17:24

my my breath for and shared like

17:26

hey here's the five best available town

17:28

that I have on the board before

17:30

one Sixty Eight. And. In one

17:32

eighty four rolls around and dolphins pick one

17:35

of the and two guys Coast was my

17:37

on the i'm a leak Washington the wide

17:39

receiver. From the you

17:41

receive Virginia who is just. A

17:44

lightning in a bot. Is.

17:46

Like guy and he led lights. Will.

17:49

Will call it as it is idiotic. Easy

17:51

going to be a very successful has the

17:53

opportunity. Very successful sly guy. But.

17:55

He's five foot eight. Is one hundred ninety

17:57

pounds, He don't have the largest wingspan

17:59

for. The present our wingspan twelve percent

18:01

are like. Real.

18:04

For four seven. So he's price. On

18:07

Lot of explosiveness in his game is

18:35

why I just I think when you're

18:37

five foot eight, the stride length kind

18:39

of prevents you from. Consistently.

18:42

Being late August he did the short area

18:44

burst is there. Have. Been of

18:46

the open up your strides vs guys maybe a

18:49

little taller. When.

18:51

You look in the league washington. Ah,

18:53

I think a few things stand out in one of

18:56

the best drop rates in the country. Or

18:58

he it's was crazy with three drops but that

19:00

was on one hundred thirty Targets get three

19:02

drops. This is two point six percent drop rate.

19:04

this year. Ah,

19:06

He. Was. Above

19:08

average in contested cat

19:11

situations. He. Was first in

19:13

the country most qualifying wide receivers and

19:15

miss tackles forced with thirty five. Or.

19:18

He was an intermediate area the field player.

19:21

When you think about some of the research

19:23

that we did this season on the usage

19:25

in the role of Braxton Barrios and how

19:27

he was used for says how. His

19:29

strengths we're supposed to fit within the or

19:31

sense in. There were some inefficiencies in the

19:33

shore areas the field. Moink.

19:36

Washington's average depth atari was eight point

19:39

one yards. But. Still

19:41

thirty five miss tackles or he

19:43

had twenty eight touches that were

19:46

screen passes. Or that's

19:48

inside the top twenty of qualifying pass catchers.

19:51

Get. Over eleven hundred yards from the

19:53

slot. Ah, and ninety

19:55

three receptions from the slot. is

19:58

due to toss to Like

20:00

and because he's 5 8 He's

20:05

built a little bit more like Tyreke

20:08

than being like a slender slot guy like

20:10

there is some density here There's

20:13

three point one five yards per route run.

20:16

That's right up there amongst the best

20:18

receivers in the country He

20:20

didn't just play me. He played a Virginia, right? So

20:22

he played University of Maryland. He played

20:24

Tennessee He played Boston College

20:26

and Tennessee had Some

20:30

dudes in that secondary They

20:33

played North Carolina University of Miami and Louisville

20:36

and Virginia Tech and Duke they

20:38

played meaningful competition This is not like oh he

20:40

played at a small school so you can You

20:43

can even just thumb your nose at and say oh he played

20:45

at the FCS level playing the ACC Well,

20:49

quite frankly a bad offense it

20:51

was the offense So

20:55

this being a player who Played The

21:00

vast majority of his snaps passing

21:03

snaps in the slot But

21:05

has shown at least to some degree

21:08

Throughout his college career to have

21:10

some outside alignment I think he

21:13

is predominantly a contender for some

21:15

11 personnel stuff and

21:17

some depth But

21:20

they they schemed it up and got the ball in his

21:22

hands in the screen game They let him

21:24

work the middle of the field. He showed toughness in

21:27

the middle of field He was

21:29

more slippery than any other receiver in the

21:31

country as far as at the catchpoint and

21:33

with the ball in his hands to create

21:35

missed tackles putting that

21:39

Potentially into this offense if he competes and

21:41

he gets on the 53-man roster and he

21:43

earns himself some playing time Which I think

21:45

he can do And

21:48

a sixth round pick at 184 overall Is

21:53

outstanding fit But it's

21:55

also outstanding value. I had a third round grade on

21:57

both the players the Dolphins got in the fifth and

21:59

sixth round with Muhammad Kamara in the League of Washington.

22:02

Graded them specifically for Miami, and they

22:04

were there, and 10 picks before

22:06

Miami picked Muhammad Kamara, they were both amongst the five

22:08

best players I had available on the board for the

22:10

Dolphins, they picked them both. And

22:13

I know it's not about my

22:15

rankings, but if you

22:17

look at the skill sets, if

22:21

you look at how they fit, and

22:23

you look at where the Dolphins got them, that's

22:27

a lot of value. I think right, Kamara

22:30

and Washington have a really good chance to

22:32

be meaningful contributors to your football team. And

22:39

may take more snaps than at

22:42

least Patrick Paul, because Patrick Paul, unless they

22:44

have a sixth offensive line

22:46

and tight end package for him, and look,

22:48

maybe they do, because Mike McDaniel and Chris

22:50

Greer were asked about balancing short-term

22:53

and long-term and having plans for players,

22:55

and they kind of said, we

22:58

made sure that we had the

23:00

players that we picked, there

23:03

was some understanding of how

23:05

they were gonna help us be better this year. So

23:08

we'll see what they have cooked up for Patrick Paul. I

23:10

think if you told me he was the offensive

23:13

lineman in motion, in

23:15

like their big run heavy sets, if

23:19

he's running split flow action like they did with

23:21

Trent Williams in San Francisco, or

23:24

with Detroit and Penny Sewell, I

23:27

could see some of that stuff for him, like he's athletic enough

23:29

to do it. So

23:32

we'll see what they have for him. But

23:35

this is why, and again, you take your

23:37

own advice, easier said than done. On

23:40

Wednesday before the draft, I said, get

23:43

the full picture. And

23:47

as this class came into focus, and

23:50

I look at Chop Robinson,

23:52

Patrick Paul, Jaylen Wright, Muhammad Kamara

23:55

Malik Washington, that's

23:57

five players, the first five picks. They

23:59

were all amongst. my top 100 players in the

24:01

class that I had graded for the Dolphins. And

24:05

you only need two picks in the top 120. I

24:11

think they did a great job on day three. I think

24:13

they knocked a three out of the part. Now they did

24:15

also draft Patrick McMorris, a safety from Cal at

24:18

198 and wide

24:20

receiver Taj Washington from USC at 241.

24:23

And he's like a big play extraordinaire, big

24:25

play specialist in that USC offense. McMorris is

24:27

a player. I got to familiarize myself a

24:29

little bit more before I talk to you

24:32

too much about. But

24:35

a seven man draft class for the Dolphins that

24:40

I think the vision became clear throughout

24:45

the day of all days, it gave

24:47

some clarity. And I think that all things did a

24:51

wonderful job and we'll see who they managed to cook

24:53

up on UDF. There's some UDF is

24:55

out there that I think are some high potential players

24:57

as very skilled, specific role players that

25:00

I can see the Dolphins maybe having a need for

25:02

as well. And this team seems to always find one

25:04

or two UDF as and catch lightning in a bar.

25:08

We're to look forward to 2025 draft

25:11

capital with just a few notes here to bring

25:13

this episode of Lockdown Dolphins to a close. So

25:16

make sure that you stick with us. All

25:23

right, game off. We got to pause

25:25

here to talk about Monopoly. And I know what you're saying

25:27

flag on the play. You already mentioned

25:29

Monopoly go here on today's show, but

25:32

there's just so much good stuff with this game. You

25:34

can team up with your friends for timed tournaments where

25:36

you work together to build up each other's boards. You

25:39

win together, win awesome prizes. You can

25:41

unlock the more that you win. And

25:43

there's a lot to get. There's unique stickers that

25:46

you trade with friends for complete albums and big

25:48

prizes, cool new playing pieces

25:50

to travel with the boards with. Hilarious

25:52

emojis for taunting your friends as you

25:54

smash their buildings or heist their vaults.

25:57

Plus, Monopoly go feels new and exciting

25:59

with constantly. changing tournaments and challenges.

26:02

A ton include their own mini games like digging

26:04

for treasure or a robot pachinko

26:06

machine. There's always new timed events

26:08

that help you win big with

26:10

massive multipliers for everything you win

26:12

or rent frenzies. It's always

26:14

something fun to deliver in Monopoly Go. So get off

26:16

the bench and go download it now in the Google

26:18

Play or App Store. Game on. Life

26:22

is a highway and on it, there

26:25

will be many chicken sandwiches. But there's

26:27

only one mid-crisp. So go ahead and

26:29

hit the turn signal if you know

26:31

about this juicy gem of

26:33

a detour. So

26:41

there's some moving parts for 2025 because

26:44

obviously the dolphins moved their third round pick.

26:48

But the dolphins are kind of back

26:50

into a little bit more of

26:53

a stable state

26:57

with their draft picks. They obviously made

27:00

the one trade today, 2025 draft capital.

27:04

They have their own first round pick in the first round

27:06

and second round. They traded their

27:08

third round pick to Philadelphia for Jalen Wright.

27:12

The dolphins are expected

27:14

to get at least one compensatory pick

27:16

in the third round, if not two

27:19

for the compensatory

27:22

pick free

27:24

agent losses of Christian Wilkins and

27:26

Robert Hunt. Reminder, that

27:29

timeframe for free agent

27:32

signing expires on

27:34

Tuesday. Monday night is

27:36

the last business day that

27:39

you can sign free agents and have it count

27:41

against the compensatory pick according to the new collective

27:43

bargaining agreement. So first

27:45

second round, you have your own. Christian

27:48

Wilkins is a lock for a three. You're going to have

27:50

a three, even though you traded a three to Philly. Robert

27:53

Hunt is probably playtime dependent. That

27:55

might be two threes. And that would be between

27:58

96 and probably one. two

28:00

in the draft order. So you have

28:02

a one, a two, potentially two threes.

28:05

If you don't have two threes, you're definitely going to

28:07

have one and it's probably

28:09

going to be number 97 overall. And

28:12

then in the fourth round, you have your own

28:15

pick. And if Robert Hunt is not a third

28:17

round competitive story pick, you would then in turn

28:19

be a fourth round competitive story picks. So you

28:21

think you have two threes or two fours. You're

28:23

going to have two fives regardless because the dolphins

28:26

have their own and then they have a fifth

28:28

round pick as part of the late round pick swaps

28:30

from the Bradley Chubb trade at the trade deadline. So

28:34

you could be sitting here looking at a one,

28:36

a two, a three, two fours, two fives, or

28:40

a one, a two, two threes, a four and

28:42

two fives. Your

28:44

sixth round pick belongs to the bears as part

28:47

of the chase plate Claypool deal. But

28:49

that was a pick swap. So the dolphins give

28:51

their six to Chicago and they get the bear

28:53

seventh back. So on

28:55

day one, you have a one on

28:58

day two in 2025. You have a

29:00

two and potentially two threes, but

29:03

at least one three with the commensatory formants. And

29:05

then on day three, you have at

29:08

least one fourth, maybe two, you

29:10

have two fives, no six and

29:12

two sevens. Volume

29:14

draft in his back, baby. We're

29:17

packing this out on next year. We're going to have

29:19

a lot more to work with unless

29:21

the dolphins are throughout the course

29:24

of the summer because this team still has some holes and

29:27

that's something that we talked about yesterday. You're

29:30

putting a little bit more pressure on yourself with

29:32

your summer free agent spree to

29:35

find starting caliber players or

29:37

meaningful veteran depth players to

29:40

fill the void. And I think that's what's interesting is

29:43

with all these picks and including an extra pick this

29:45

year, having some

29:47

offensive linemen at some spots along the board

29:49

that might have made some sense. You

29:51

drafted a long-term error to Toronto Armstead

29:54

at 55 and that was it. It

29:57

didn't draft an interior guy to say, well, we're going to

29:59

bring this. this guy in and he's gonna compete to

30:01

start force and upgrade. And we heard

30:03

the reports, I know Barry Jackson, Miami Herald had

30:06

said that the Dolphins

30:08

were in discussion with a number

30:10

of veteran interior offensive linemen about potentially

30:13

coming into the mix here. And

30:15

I know that Greg Van Roten's name has been mentioned,

30:18

I know Dalton Risner's name has been mentioned. You

30:21

have Isaiah Wynn, Aaron Brewer, and

30:23

probably Liam Eichenberg kinda fensilled in

30:26

his starters right now with

30:29

Robert Jones, Jack Driscoll, some

30:32

depth there, you

30:34

need another guy for sure. And a

30:36

guy who could probably start. One

30:39

of those vet guys I think would make a lot of sense and

30:42

it was the Dolphins strategy.

30:44

And again, this gets clear after you

30:46

see them pass on some good value

30:48

into your offensive lineman on

30:50

day three of the draft, is it well,

30:53

that just the value of the other players was too

30:55

good and I would agree with that assessment or is

30:57

it, well, we want

30:59

veteran players to come in and be

31:01

complimentary and ancillary pieces of the offensive

31:03

line versus drafting a

31:06

rookie at this spot and putting all

31:08

the eggs in that basket. I

31:10

don't know, but what we do know is

31:12

they're not gonna get any more rookies for the interior offensive line,

31:14

they're not gonna start a rookie inside. It's

31:18

gonna be veteran players. But

31:21

that it puts more stress on you to maybe

31:23

not go big game hunting and sign one free

31:25

agent, you probably got signed three or

31:27

four. But

31:30

now that we're through the draft, it just gives

31:32

you a higher resolution on the work that still

31:34

has to be done. I'm

31:36

sure if I open up and do we do power

31:38

to the pod, some point in the next two weeks,

31:41

everybody's gonna ask, do they have enough on the offensive

31:43

line? Mine's just gonna be no. They're

31:45

gonna say, should we be worried? I said, only

31:48

if it's September 1st. But

31:51

now you gotta go find it. But

31:54

that's, we'll get back into

31:57

who's available in the market. We'll do another

31:59

dive. on those players in the

32:01

summer. They kind of

32:03

get into who makes the most sense and financially

32:05

what you could expect it often is obviously having

32:07

some money open up with Xavier Howard post June

32:09

1st plus whatever they potentially get when they get

32:11

it to a tongue of a low contract. But

32:16

this draft class Chop Robinson Patrick

32:19

Paul Jalen Wright, Mohammed Kamara Malik

32:21

Washington Patrick McMorris and Taj Washington

32:25

is a strong finish to

32:28

a draft class that added a lot of

32:30

potential early at

32:32

premium positions where you have

32:35

big contracts and you're trying

32:37

to again stay ahead

32:39

of the contracts to take the exit

32:41

ramps as they come to

32:45

kind of transition

32:47

out of your certain

32:50

phrase of quality starters and veteran players who

32:52

consider cornerstones and phase them out and have

32:54

players behind a little bit. It's a little

32:56

bit like the Cincinnati Bengals the past few

32:58

years. Their draft strategy has mirrored that a

33:01

little bit where they

33:03

have drafted a year ahead of some

33:05

needs. And I

33:07

think that often did that early. But

33:10

I think the way that they complimented that with

33:12

day three gives me a little bit more

33:15

zen, if you will, about this draft class

33:18

as a whole. We will

33:20

have plenty more to talk about about this draft class and

33:22

the UDFAs that are to come. That's in the coming days

together and gain the clarity together on

33:51

what works and what doesn't work and

33:53

why it was done and what the

33:55

implications are. I
