Three potential picks for the Miami Dolphins at #30 Overall
It has been eighteen years since the Miami Dolphins last won their division and 26 since they claimed a playoff victory. Yes, it's the brutal truth- the Fins have only one postseason win, this millenium. So there is no mystery was to why owner Stephen Ross, and his top brass, blew it all up this offseason.
Head coach Mike McDaniel was sacked. General manager Chris Grier mutually agreed to part ways with the team. How mutual that actually was, well, unless you're actually inside the front office, you don't really know, but officially speaking, he was not fired.
Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa was also released, and we all saw that coming after his notorious self-own of a press conference during the season. Tagovailoa infamously told the media that Miami lacked leadership from a players perspective. Yes, if he only he (the handsomely paid franchise starting quarterback) knew somebody who could do something about that.
His exit meant a dead cap hit of $99. 2 million, and you know what means? Yes, it is hard reset time on the Florida Turnpike.
Let's take a look at what Miami might do with their second pick, in the first round, at the 30th overall selection. Chris Johnson, CB, San Diego State NFL Mock Draft Database has a Consensus NFL Mock Draft which indicates the most common player projected at every single slot. Johnson leads the way at #30, with 14% of the mocks out there projecting him.
