Much has been done about the Miami Dolphins ’decision at the top of the draft, but fans should not overlook Miami’s dynamic potential by manipulating their draft picks with a possible trade-off with their second-round pick of this low season. The No. 18 overall selection is what puts the Dolphins a bit between a rock and a difficult spot – they may have to run back into that slot if they hope to get one of the top three runners in the class this year. even if this is a positional value less than par.
A trade could certainly help calm it down. But who are some potential business partners with the Dolphins at number 18? Miami should be calculated here, if they go back too far in order, they can still jump on their bid to add an update to the back field (or anywhere else). Fortunately, if Miami wanted to postpone some selections and make sure they continue to get a maximum, there are a handful of potential trading partners that would still allow the Dolphins to tackle some additional mid-or-afternoon options. .
Who should the Dolphins call?
The Tennessee Titans are at the top of the list. We just saw the Dolphins and Titans do business recently in a creative exchange for OT Isaiah Wilson, a play that failed and left the Dolphins to have to wait another year for their seventh round selection to appear in the exchange. But there is more business to be done if the Titans are interested in jumping in front of a series of teams that could threaten the Titans ’advice.
Best of all, Tennessee picks 22nd overall, so you’re only talking about giving up four places in order.
Why would Tennessee move? Isaiah Wilson’s experience left the Titans an open hole in the right inning, and since then the team has also parted ways with veteran Dennis Kelly. Therefore, Tennessee plans to start Kendall Lamm on the right. This will not work for a team trying to maintain a winning window. Tennessee has three teams between them and Miami: Washington, Chicago and Indianapolis.
All are candidates to draft an attack.
So the Miami sales pitch is easy. If there’s an attack on the table that the Titans love, come up with the idea of coming to close the door on a team that boots their favorite team. Miami would likely get an early pick on day 3 for the exchange (and perhaps a final service in the final round) and drop from 18th to 22nd. And in 22nd overall, the Dolphins are still up against hungry teams like the Jets, Steelers and Bills.
