A few days ago, I released my full mock draft with trades and now I present my first Pre-Free Agency Miami Dolphins 7 Round Mock Draft and if you read my first mock draft, you should know what Miami’s first trade was. The Dolphins have plenty of needs heading into the draft and we don’t know which holes will be filled in free agency by then but we can predict Miami will sign mid-level free agents to pass them off as starters so they can move around the draft and take the “Best Player Available” at their respective picks. After free agency and closer to the draft, I will release another round one mock draft and Dolphins team mock draft but as of now – This is how I see the Dolphins draft playing out with trades included:

Lamar Jackson will not play QB on the NFL!
Looks like Bill Polian found the site
Clearly the Fins need improvement at the Guard position and by trading down in the 1st there a couple available that would not be considered major reaches. That said, the Fins are probably hoping one of the 2 blue chip LBs fall to #11 where they would pounce.
I would LOVE either of the two LBs to still be on the board at 11! If not, the best guard in decades might fall to us (Nelson ND). If none of this happens, I'm OK with a trade down, just not in love with the Lamar Jackson pick. I'm also a huge Twins fan, so love the name Tony Oliva!
I remember a few times over the years where mock drafts had Guards going very early only to see them last to the latter half of the 1st round. David DeCastro of the Steelers comes to mind. I can also think of a few so called can't miss Guard prospects who never made it. Hopefully the Fins get it right as they have had a lot of bad luck over the years. Good luck to your Twins this season!
