To draft the top left tackle, or not draft the top left tackle? That could be a question the Miami Dolphins will spend some time debating ahead of the 2021 NFL draft later this month.
The Dolphins own the No. 6 and No. 18 picks in the first round of the draft, where Oregon’s Penei Sewell may be the best offensive tackle available in the top 10, while Northwestern’s Rashawn Slater could challenge that billing.
Sewell or Slater could displace Austin Jackson, the Dolphins’ No. 18 pick last year, at left tackle, but Jackson has played right tackle before.
