The Dolphins’ competitiveness in 2019 will be tied directly to their ability to draft immediate contributors in the 2019 NFL Draft. And if the latest swell of projections are true, it turns out the Dolphins might not be sweating the 2019 season too much after all.
Mississippi State DL Jeffery Simmons is a hot name for the Dolphins in the last few hours, suggesting that perhaps the long-term value of Simmons weighs more heavily for the Dolphins than the immediate returns of a day one player. After all, Miami’s coaching staff and front office will be quick to remind you that the Dolphins’ process going forward is exactly that — a process.
Simmons’ addition would be a welcomed infusion of difference making potential, even if they have to wait a year to cash in on it.
