R4P2: K.J. Hill, WR, Ohio State

K.J. Hill is a fast and elusive wide receiver who can use his speed to consistently win at all levels. He is a true deep threat, can work the middle of the field and does a great job of making plays after the catch in the short passing game.

Hill has good route running ability and fantastic natural ball skills. He is an exciting player who would be a nice value selection for the Miami Dolphins in this range of the 2020 NFL Draft.

R4P12: Liam Eichenberg, OT, Notre Dame

Liam Eichenberg is a long and athletic offensive tackle who will likely be a bit of a developmental prospect in the 2020 NFL Draft. Eichenberg is strong in pass protection, moving his feet well and consistently using his length to his advantage. That being said, his lack of functional strength and ability to make an impact at the point of attack consistently stands out on tape.

Eichenberg must work to get bigger and stronger if he is ever going to be a full-time NFL starter. However, if he can improve in that specific area, his upside as a starting offensive tackle would rapidly improve.

R5P33: Cole McDonald, QB, Hawaii

We had to get a quarterback in here somewhere. The plan for my version of the Miami Dolphins is still to wait for 2021 for a true franchise quarterback. However, with so many picks, they might as well take a shot on some upside at the position later in the 2020 NFL Draft.

Cole McDonald has the physical traits to be a starting NFL quarterback. He has a strong combination of size, arm strength and mobility that makes him an interesting prospect. However, his college numbers are inflated due to his pass-happy Hawaii offense and he does struggle with accuracy at times.

McDonald could have what it takes to be an NFL starting quarterback, but his game will need to be refined a bit. That being said, his overall skill-set is worthy of a flyer late in the 2020 NFL Draft.
