The Miami Dolphins have made their first selection in the 2019 NFL Draft. The team came into this year’s draft with no one really knowing what the team could or would do with the 13th overall pick. The team has needs all over the roster, which would make just about any pick a “need” pick, which basically allowed the team to make the pick the “best player available.”
With the 13th overall pick, the Miami Dolphins selected Clemson defensive lineman Christian Wilkins.
It was an interesting first round, with some surprises including Clemson defensive end Clelin Ferrell being selected fourth overall by the Oakland Raiders and Duke’s Daniel Jones being the second quarterback selected at sixth overall by the New York Giants.
