Pick Analysis. Scouting Report. Offensive Tackle. Stanford. Walker Little. 3. player. 871

While the offensive line looks solid outside of center right now, the Miami Dolphins can always add more to the fold. Kindley, Hunt, and Austin Jackson look ready to go, and now Creed Humphrey is in the building. Why not add a little versatility?

Stanford offensive lineman Walker Little makes plenty of sense in the middle rounds. Little missed the 2019 season with an injury and then opted out of the 2020 season to prepare for the 2021 NFL Draft.

Risking injury, along with playing during a pandemic, doesn’t make sense for Little. He brings tackle/guard versatility, has heavy hands, and more quickness than advertised. If medicals check out, this would be a good pick.

4. player. Scouting Report. Safety. UCF. Richie Grant. 886. Pick Analysis

Eric Rowe and Bobby McCain are playing well right now, and the Miami Dolphins do have rookie Brandon Jones in house. However, adding another playmaker to that secondary makes sense. Richie Grant hasn’t had that much hype so far, but he’s got the range and ball skills to play in a single high and half field look. He’d be a good addition to a flourishing Dolphins defense that’s hitting its stride.
