Miami Dolphins Day Two Draft Recap

The Miami Dolphins made some moves yesterday and ended up taking three different players in the second and third round. They originally had four picks in the two rounds, but they traded one of their second rounders to move up and take Dion Jordan third overall.

Jeff Ireland is in a make-or-break season. This is the last year of his contract, and he needs to make some moves to keep his job.

Here are their picks (click on each of their names to get a scouting report):

I would like to start by saying that I absolutely love doubling up on cornerback. This way we are almost guaranteed to have one of them pan out as a starter. That's the benefit if loading up on picks. You're able to have a higher margin of error.

Dallas Thomas is a very versatile offensive lineman. He played as a guard last year and a tackle the year before. Joe Philbin has said that they will play Thomas on the left side, but he's not sure at what spot yet.

I am really excited with the direction the Dolphins are going in this draft. Miami is really strengthening their defense, and they are adding a lot of impact players. We'll see what they do today.

Here is some tape on the three new Dolphins:
