My Precombine Mock 2.0


Recommended Posts

1. Jesse Williams – DT , Would love to have an OT here but Fisher is off the board and everyone else is a reach. Hopefully we find some long term help on the interior DL

2. Oday Aboushi – OT, I think he will be here in the 2nd. If not we go Dallas Thomas. My biggest hope is that we can address both lines in the first two rounds.

4. Shawn Williams –SS, Addresses safety needs. Did not get a lot of publicity at UGA because of Bacari Rambo but there have been comparisons to TD. Not a ball hawk but a hard hitter.

5. Devin Taylor – DE Gettleman gets his pass rush fix here. Project with huge upside

6. Braden Hansen – OG Line depth

6(Comp) Connor Vernon – WR – Smart with good hands.

6 (Comp) Theo Riddick – RB Change of pace back and could go into the rotation if we lose one of our horses.

The thing about Devin Taylor is that he doesn't use his length to his advantage. Maybe that is something that can be coached.

I think that's why he falls to the 5th. So far he has relied on natural ability but his game could go to another level if he learns to use his size. I am not completely sold on him but I think he is an intriguing prospect here.

Really? You like him over Richardson? They're both freakishly good athletes, but when you knock Hankins for being a two-down player, I'm surprised that you're so high on Jesse.

If Richardson wasn't a LB playing DT maybe. He is not a solid run defender, a great athlete yes, but that's not what I look for in the DT position.

idk. i think id rather jump on the eric fisher wagon with you first. i know he strong as a bull but i feel you should be able to collapse the pocket and hold the point with the 14 pick

Unless something dramatic happens I believe Fisher will be gone by 14. If I thought it was realistic I would have gladly penciled him in here. I want an OT in the first but just don't think the value will be there when we pick. When Matthews and Lewan opted to stay in school it really thinned the top of the OT field

    • shaq Thompson was begging to comeback even on a vet min but they looked at rozebum and said "nah, we good"
    • Oh I'm sure they'll try I'd just be floored of they find a taker.
    • Just look at OTC. It takes like 30 seconds. Also, ESPN just covered this today. As Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel openly mulls a quarterback change late in Tua Tagovailoa's disappointing season, here's the math on where things stand with Tagovailoa and the Dolphins. He has $54 million in fully guaranteed compensation in 2026. That breaks down as a $39 million salary and a $15 million option bonus that needs to be exercised between the first and third days of the 2026 league year in March. Additionally, on the third day of the 2026 league year, $3 million of his $31 million 2027 salary becomes fully guaranteed. So if he's on Miami's roster as of 4 p.m. ET on March 13, the Dolphins will be on the hook for $57 million guaranteed.   If they were to release him prior to that date, they'd still have to pay him the $54 million in 2026 cash and would absorb $99.2 million in dead salary cap charges. (They could spread that out over two years if they designated him a post-June 1 release, but they'd still take $67.4 million in dead money charges on their 2026 cap and the remaining $31.8 million in 2027.) If they were to find a way to trade Tagovailoa before March 13, the acquiring team would become responsible for the $54 million in 2026 salary and bonuses, and the Dolphins' dead-money charge would drop to $45.2 million. If they traded him after March 13, presumably they'd be on the hook for the $15 million option bonus, while the new team would take the $39 million salary; the Dolphins' dead-money charge would be $60.2 million.   None of this is even close to ideal, obviously, as it would leave Miami in a terrible cap situation and also without a quarterback. The Broncos took $80 million in dead-money charges (spread over two years) when they released Russell Wilson in 2024, and they managed to make the playoffs last season and currently hold the 1-seed in the AFC playoff field for this season. So huge dead-money charges don't necessarily kill a team's chances. But one of the reasons it has worked for Denver is it found a first-round QB in Bo Nix who could play right away.   If the Dolphins bench Tagovailoa this week, it'd be for either Zach Wilson or rookie Quinn Ewers, either of whom could theoretically be a 2026 starting option if they show enough in these remaining three weeks. But moving on from Tagovailoa would probably require the Dolphins to be players in that Mac Jones/Kyler Murray/etc. second-chance QB market if they want to compete next year. Not a great spot for whoever their next general manager turns out to be. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/47324378/nfl-week-16-buzz-news-updates-fantasy-intel-questions-predictions#trades
