Miami Dolphins 2018 NFL Draft tracker and highlights
The Miami Dolphins are taking on a brand new look this season in more ways than one. How will they build through the 2018 NFL Draft?
No more Ndamukong Suh.
No more Jarvis Landry.
The Miami Dolphins are taking on some major changes this offseason, and not just with their new uniforms…
Might the Dolphins emerge from the 2018 NFL Draft with a new quarterback of the future? How will they attempt to replace Suh on the defensive line?
Are more playmakers on the way?
The Dolphins did a good job this offseason of going out and filling some areas of need with players who were a little more on the financially responsible side of things. Specifically, they went out and got Danny Amendola from their rivals in New England, and he could wind up playing a huge role in this team’s offense, along with speedy Albert Wilson from Kansas City.
Maybe the most interesting move the Dolphins made was to go out and get Frank Gore from the Colts, who just seems to be ageless.
There are certainly a lot of directions Miami could go with their draft in 2018, but they might be picking too low to get the quarterback they want to build around.
