Title: Grade the Dolphins 2006 Draft Post by: Dave Gray on May 02, 2006, 03:38:58 pm I personally don't like to pretend like I know how these picks turn out. The only reason I get upset in a draft is if a position is passed on that I know we need, for another position that we don't. ...ie - Jamar Fletcher and leaving Drew Brees on the board.
I am okay with our first pick -- while he wasn't the highest ranking player there by most draft "experts", Saban liked his style of play, and it's a position of need. So, fine by me. With the WR we took, Saban elected to go with productivity over possibility. I like this approach, especially at the WR position, where we've had a bunch of "potential" guys that haven't been panning out. We need a #2 receiver, and that's what we got. As for Joe Toledo, we needed a guy like that, and the only think I know about him was that 'Stroke was high on him before the draft. After that, you're pretty much drawing straws. I am happy with our picks, and think that we didn't do anything fantastic or terrible. |
