This is a moderated phorum for the CIVILIZED discussion of the Miami Dolphins. In this phorum, there are rules and moderators to make sure you abide by the rules. The moderators for this phorum are JC and Colonel.
With the 14th overall pick in the 2015 NFL Draft, the Miami Dolphins select: DeVante Parker, WR Louisville.
Yes, I think the Dolphins will go either WR or OG with the 14th overall pick, and I don’t think they are going to be able to pass on Parker if he is still there at 14th overall, which I think he will be. Kevin White and Amari Cooper will be the first two wide receivers gone, and I see them going to the New Orleans Saints and Oakland Raiders ahead of Miami.

I'd like to see that mock draft that has Parker falling to 14 so I can give you 5 reasons why it won't happen.

Per NFL sources, scouts clocked Amari Cooper as fast as 4.31, 4.35 and 4.37 at NFLCombine.
Brandon Scherff – Iowa. IF Scherff is available at 14 he will be very hard for the Dolphins to pass up. Perhaps one of the top all around guards in the last few drafts, Scherff is considered NFL starting ready and would be almost a 100% lock to start day one at one of the guard positions. Dominant in run blocking Scherff has one downside and that is pro-scouts question whether he can handle the edge rushers in the NFL. It wouldn’t matter as much to Miami if they view him as a guard but considering he can also play right tackle, his stock remains high. He is also the only guard that Miami should consider at 14.
Devante Parker – Louisville. Parker is an all around good wide-receiver. He knows how to use his body, has the size, and ran an impressive 40 time at the Combine. He isn’t in the same league as Cooper or White but at the NFL level things change quickly so Parker could become the best of the bunch or just another top wide-receiver who quietly does his job. Parker can be explosive and is very good after the catch, something the Dolphins need. In 2014 Parker only played in six games but scored five times and put up over 850 yards on 43 catches. That’s impressive.
Trae Waynes – Michigan State. The best cornerback in the draft could very easily fall to 14. Waynes has very good speed and is able to keep up with faster receivers and uses his body well to keep receivers from getting over the top on him. Some believe he isn’t a day one starter come training camp but those who don’t view him as an immediate starter see him not to far off. In Miami Waynes would likely start immediately. The Dolphins need a corner to start opposite Brent Grimes and Waynes could easily be that guy. He may not be the top need the Dolphins have but he isn’t far off.

You never know joe..
You probably would had said the same thing about randy moss.
Yep. If it's me and Parker is gone, I am praying for a trade down. Twice would be riskier and less likely but I like the extra picks and we could end up with a low 1st, two 2nd rounders and a 3rd in total.
The problem is we would be trading down because we are on the cusp of top talent. At that point who is going to be available that someone wants bad enough to trade up for? And are they in love with them enough to give up a 2nd or will they low ball for lesser value that's off the trade chart.
Everyone knows there is huge value to be had in the first two days.

Personally, even if Parker was there at 14, if someone called me willing to make a (good) trade, I would probably take it.
The WR position is deep this year...there will still be good ones in the 3rd round. Not saying wait until the 3rd round to take one, but they will be there. Desperately need to, at the least, get that 3rd rounder back.

Sam, the two fourth rounders I mentioned is what Hickey said, not what Miami presently has in the draft.

Also interesting to note, #Dolphins OC Bill Lazor is having a nice chat with #Hurricanes HC Al Golden during pro day. Hmmmmm.

I don't know if he's the next Edgerrin James but he would be a great pick up for the Dolphins in Round 2. I know he's not a power back but his ability is amazing. I love his decisiveness.

That's a lot for Lamar to carry. Hope it doesn't cost him quickness or speed.
