Alabama Football 2016 NFL Draft: Miami Selects Kenyan Drake

In a somewhat surprising move, Kenyan Drake goes 73rd overall to the Miami Dolphins. This means that Drake is the third running back selected in the entire draft, after only Ezekial Elliot and Derrick Henry. Though oft-inured, he has untapped potential as a runner, receiver, and return man.

With the 73rd overall pick, the Miami Dolphins selected running back Kenyan Drake. The selection will now give Miami a running back to team with Jay Ajayi as the tandem of running backs this year.

Drake is a home-run hitter, able to break a long run at any point, and he is a solid receiver.
