Miami Dolphins’ draft class isn’t exactly sexy, but it’s the one they needed

This year’s draft class was really good, maybe even great. Three of the six actual draft selections were used on trench players: Christian Wilkins, Michael Deiter, and Isaiah Prince.

The offensive and defensive lines were two of the biggest areas of concern, and the Miami Dolphins spent their first-round pick on the defensive side with Clemson’s Christian Wilkins.

There were reports that they initially had a trade-down partner with the Eagles, but the Fins pulled out of the deal at the last second to just straight-up select Wilkins, who I have no doubt would’ve been the Eagles’ pick.
