    Who do you think the Dolphins are taking with the #1 pick? How much did your opinion change with The Tuna now in charge of the franchise?

    Do you think this pick will get traded?

    They'd be nuts not to take Dorsey... Traylor isn't going to be around much longer... it would give them a young DT rotation w/ major upside. Of course, I was one of the few who thought they should have taken Okobi (19 yr old DT last yr).

    Though, if McFadden declares then see if a trade partner exists.

    Dorsey doesn't fit in that defense at all. And nobody is going to take McFadden first overall.

    I'm thinking Chris Long. Either way, this class sucks. It's no good at the top, and there's no depth either. They picked a really crappy year to finish with 1 or 2 wins.

    I doubt Tuna keeps Dom Capers around

    <span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:100%"><span style="font-size:10pt;line-height:100%">Draft may lack "elite" talent compared to yr's past, but it's got plenty of talent in it. It's probably more defensive heavier than usual at the top. And there is depth to it IMO.

    A few teams would take McFadden #1 if they were in the position. Asking them to move up is another story because of what they have to give up to get there.

    Parcells could go with any position since he just took over. . </span></span><span style="font-family:Times New Roman">

    Dorsey is the best pick.

    I hope Capers isn't around & Ron Rivera is brought in.

    Dorsey would be a great fit in the Philly/Chicago styles that RR has experience with.

    Im sure Parcells will want to continue the conversion to the 3-4....Dorsey doesnt fit as a nose tackle, but he does fit very well as a 3-4 DE because hes disruptive enough to play the run and the pass from a downed position....think Marcus Spears with 2x the motor....Chris Long actually fits the same role and is just as impactful....they will listen to all trade offers, but in the end, I think Dorsey will be playing DE next season in Miami....

    I like Long more as an end in the 3-4 than Dorsey, I don't think that would work at all. Miami should try to move down, but I don't know if there would be enough interest. They might find a sucker in Atlanta who keep making all the wrong moves.

    If they keep the pick they take Dorsey. They need defense and he'd definitely help that cause.

    The Dolphins WILL NOT take McFadden st. His character issues will raise some serious questions, i say they go with either Chris Long, or Jake Long. Hopefully not Jake, because that's all the rams need to help there offense click.
