I think we have to wait and see, none of us would have had Juwan James on a man crush list, yet he was as good of pick as we could have made last year from our draft position... Those first 2 picks Juwan James and Jarvis Landry give me some good faith in letting Hickey do his things in the first 2rds this year.. I hope he doesnt let me down...

When is the last time we drafted a 1st round Cb that turned out good for us?
And its not going to change anytime soon. The cb position is not very talented this year coming out of college.
Maybe in the later rounds but not in the 1st or second.

I definitely don't want a db at 14.
There are too many other impact guys at other positions for me to reach for a db.
Give me any one of the following at 14 and I'm happy...

Most ticket Erving in the latter 1/3rd of the first round. Right now dorsett is projected by most as a 2nd. After he runs at the combine he'll move up.
Erving is the most versatile ol in the draft. He's a plug and play LG who is an elite c and can play lt..
Dorsett is gonna be an impact guy at this level and he allows me to get rid of Wallace after this year.
He and Erving aren't my first two options at 14 but if the other 10 guys on my list are fine than I'd be fine with either.
It's like taking James where we did last year. I don't care what value the internet/pundits place on the guy we take. I don't want the next guy on kiper's board... I want a guy I believe in.
And I believe in Erving and dorsett.
In fact, dorsett is the one player in this draft I desperately want to see in a dolphin uniform next year.

My only concerns with dgb are how bad he wants it and what does he have between the ears.
I can live with dorsett's size. He's tough and competes for the ball.
I'm not worried about the overall size of our wr's. I plan on drafting a bigger wr anyway and dorsett just replaces Wallace long term.
I'm more concerned with YAC. Guys like dorsett, hardy and Diggs would fit in well with Landry and one bigger guy.
Still. LOTS of quality receivers this year. Guy from USC Agholor, Chris Conley, Jaelen Strong, Devin Smith, DGB...lots available in round 2 if top guys are gone.
Do not like Coates though. Doesn't look natural as a WR.
Jaelen Strong will be the best WR from this class.
I told everybody prior to 2013 that Nuk Hopkins would be the best from that class, I told everybody prior to last year that OBJ would be the best from the 2014 class.
