Does Reggie Ragland offer value with the 13th overall selection in the 2016 NFL Draft ? The Dolphins haven’t had a linebacker who could stop the run since Karlos Dansby. Should Miami select a player who can end their run defense woes ?
Joe Philbin and his defensive coordinator Kevin Coyle had a plan going into the 2013 season. They wanted to get younger and faster at linebacker. Karlos Dansby and Kevin Burnett were released. Dannell Ellerbe and Phillip Wheeler were signed. The experiment was an abject failure. Neither player lived up to expectations and Ellerbe’s cap number was bizarre for an unproven player ( 5yrs $35 million ).
