team. 59. This was a great draft for Miami Dolphins, who are loaded on offense but can use an O-lineman. But their greatest needs were on defense and they started there in the first round with DE Charles Harris. Ndamukong Suh and Cameron Wake finally get the help they need rushing the passer. <p>Help is on the way to play against the run too as the Dolphins took LB Raekwon McMillan in Round 3. McMillan is a physical, take-on guy that the Dolphins can use at any of their three linebackers spots. In Round three, the Dolphins get very good value, picking CB Cordrea Tankersley.</p> <p>Tankersley is a big press corner and at the same time, he has great speed, running a 4.40 in the 40. Then with the first of their two picks in Round 5, the Dolphins took 6’3″, 319-pound OG Isaac Asiata. Asiata is a mauler that can go in and take one of the starting OG spots.</p> <p>Everyone else in this draft looks like they will be depth for the Dolphins, who tightened up their defense. I don’t know if anyone is challenging the New England Patriots for the AFC East title. But if there is such a team, it’s the Dolphins, who are starting to stack up a good roster. . </p>. — A+. . miami dolphins. 22
