59. . WR. NC State. Kelvin Harmon. 27. player

I saw very little to like from the Miami Dolphins coming into the season and thought they’d be in prime position to draft Ryan Tannehill’s successor. Fast forward to week five and they’re 3-1 with a winnable game against Buffalo coming up.

In some ways the Dolphins are winning in spite of Tannehill, who is 29th in the league with 196.8 passing yards per game. Miami is the only team through four weeks with a record better than .500 that’s given up more points than they’ve scored, currently sitting at -8.

Miami needs another playmaker on offense with Devante Parker falling out of favor with the team and dealing with injuries. Outside of him the Dolphins have Kenny Stills, Albert Wilson, and Danny Amendola at wide receiver and rookie tight end Mike Gesicki.

Kelvin Harmon is an excellent route runner with very good hands, and had over 1,000 yards for NC State last year. He also makes plays with the ball in his hands and averages nearly 17 yards per catch. It’s time to give Tannehill a big playmaking receiver who can create space and make plays in it when given the opportunity.
