59. As we should all know from the last 16 years that the AFC East is owned by the Patriots. But the Miami Dolphins are starting to look like an interesting team these days. RB Jay Ajayi broke out in a big way to give the team the ground game that scares opposing teams. <p>They can also get it done through the air as QB Ryan Tannehill is becoming that guy. And he has all kinds of weapons in WRs Kenny Stills, DeVante Parker Jarvis Landry. But to beat the Patriots and take the AFC East from them, they’re going to have to hit QB Tom Brady.</p> <p>They have DT Ndamukong Suh and DE Cameron Wake over there but that’s not enough. They need some speed off the edge where the left OT is lined up. A guy like Takkarist McKinley would be just what the doctor ordered for them at No. 22 overall.</p> <p>McKinley is a dynamic edge rusher because of his elite get-off and burst that he wins early with. He also has an explosive inside counter move for when opposing OTs overset for that speed. The Dolphins would be able to get much more pressure on Brady after picking McKinley. </p>. DE. UCLA. Takkarist McKinley. 22. player
