Miami Dolphins
Best Pick – Reshad Jones, S, 163rd Overall in 2010
Reshad Jones may not be a household name, but he has quietly developed into one of the better safeties in the NFL. He is great against the rum and plays the pass well. Jones was rewarded with his play with a 5 year, 30 million dollar contract extension in 2013.

Vontae Davis, CB, 25th Overall in 2009
Jared Odrick, DL, 28th Overall in 2010
Lamar Miller, RB, 97th Overall in 2012
Worst Pick – Ted Ginn, WR, 9th Overall in 2007
Ted Ginn was an explosive playmaker at Ohio State with gamebreakinig speed that was supposed to help him in the NFL. Ginn showed off his speed, but in his 8 NFL seasons he hasn’t become anything more than a gadget player and return man. He’s bounced around the NFL since being traded to the 49ers in 2010.
