It makes me a bad person to prefer Winston over Mariota, right? His release a bit slow but the accuracy and power is on point. I've seen him make a couple back shoulder throws that haven't existed in a Jets playbook since Favre and before that Testaverde.

Winston is a lot better

Winston is the best QB in this draft and it isn't even close. Please let him drop to the 2nd or 3rd so the STeelers can draft him to be Ben's eventual rape ascendant replacement

Really? I think he might already be in the top 3 for Tight Ends. It was a garbage class before he and Maxx Williams declared.

He'll be a workout freak probably and is a really talented route runner and pass catcher but god drat did John Donovan's lovely offense not do him any favors. He is prone to getting the dropsies randomly and can't block especially well for how big he is

I've been sad for years there wasn't a DC named Pinkerton who alternately got killed by him and then assassinated him shut him down.

He's always seemed like a pretty decent traditional tight end, I hope whoever drafts him is happy.

I think he has a chance of ending up more like a Jimmy Graham type than a traditional one

Adrian Amos hasn't gotten much hype but I think he's going to be one of the better safeties in the class. Always around the ball, good ball skills, pretty much never gets burned, always seems to be in the right place coverage wise. I'd love the Steelers to grab him, PSU homerism aside

They can't ignore cornerback forever. Unfortunately.

Waynes will be long gone by the time they pick and I strongly doubt they roll the dice on Peters. Maybe PJ Williams though. But it's all moot Colbert won't draft a corner before the 3rd round like usual

Do what you feel homie. Suh is a great player I won't deny that, but what I will deny is that it's a good idea to give him over a hundred million dollars when he's traditionally been up and down against the run (until last year) and he's going to make the retention of their few stand out players very difficult over the next few years. I really like Tannehill and I think next year he'll take the next big step in his career, but he's already quietly better than most assume. He'll likely command something around 110 million dollars in his own right if he's to be detained and chances are that's going to be over 7 or so years to lock up the bulk of his career. Which means that nearly a third of the cap is going to be tied up on 2/53 of the roster. That's a lot of other positions to cover.

DTs aren't dime a dozen I'll grant you, but with the right combination of depth signings and drafting you can still have a brilliant defensive interior. It's going to be pretty hard for the Dolphins to remain competitive.

Is Suh that much better than his competition that you'd hamstring the entire franchise to have him? I don't think so personally. He's not the type of difference maker JJ Watt is.

EDIT: I want to point out I know contracts can be fiddled with and restructured etc, but keep in mind that Tannehill is entering his fourth year, they'll likely exercise his option and keep him on contract for his 5th before giving him his extension. Which means he'll be expensive as poo poo for years 5 and onwards if he remains with the team right around the same time as Suh's contract gets painful.

I get at all that and while i don't personally like Tannehill a bunch, he's enough of a franchise QB that they'd be pretty dumb to let him go and regardless of what they have going on there is always room to sign a franchise QB, and the dolphins are not the kind of team that I would say enough other parts to override that and to roll the dice on someone else in the draft. I truly think that the combo of what they have with Tannehill ( as much as I dislike him) and the defense with what Suh has to offer is enough to get them over the hump and compete for a wildcard at least, which is as much as you can hope for with Brady sticking around. They have the cornerstone pieces, just gotta be smart in free agency and the draft to bring it all together because those are as good as pieces as they will ever have (I realize this is the Dolphins we are talking about, but they've given themselves a big leg up here). I don't know I feel like I'm rambling because I've got other poo poo going on but god forbid those are my Dolphins Thoughts.
