Dan Marino headlines best draft picks for Miami Dolphins

The Miami Dolphins have been drafting players since 1966. Here’s a look at the best draft picks by position for the Dolphins:

OFFENSE

Quarterback: Dan Marino, first round, 1983, Pittsburgh. The Dolphins came up golden within the famed quarterback class of 1983, which is arguably the best ever at that position. Marino holds nearly all of Miami’s significant passing records from his Hall of Fame career. The only thing missing is a championship.

Running back: Larry Csonka, first round, 1968, Syracuse. The Dolphins’ all-time leading rusher was one of the first building blocks to their two title runs in the 1970s.
