DOLPHINS: Christmas

[Patrick McLaughlin]

I was on the road this morning and herd some dicsussion on ESPN radio where they were saying that right now, the way the boards are shaping up, they're projecting that skill players won't really be coming off the board until the middle of the first round.  Bryant is projecting as the first WR off at around 15 and Spiller first RB at around early 20s.

Patrick, getting down verbally...

> FWIW Scott Wright's Draft Countdown site mentions that Tennessee DT Dan Williams stock has soared this year w/ weight loss and NFL level coaching by former D Coordinator Monte Kiffin. Williams is 6-3 and 327, won't be much of a force as a pass rusher of course but neither is Jason Ferguson. Wright is suggesting that both he and Alabama DT Terrance Cody will be gone by round two. He made it sound like both are likely to be available somewhere in round 2. I for one would jump on that for Cody at least in a heartbeat. I have seen Williams play a bit and he looks the part but Cody is a monster. He can block kicks at 6-5 and he has been used in the backfield on goal line situations w/ great effectiveness. You think Lou Polite is tough on 4th and inches wait until he has someone like Cody charging into the back of Justin Smiley to move the pile 2 yards.
