Ten Biggest Winners of the 2015 NFL Draft
9) Miami Dolphins
- 1 (14)Devante Parker, Louisville WR
- 2 (52)Jordan Phillips, Oklahoma DT
- 4 (114)Jamil Douglas, Arizona State OG
- 5 (145)Jay Ajayi, Boise State RB
- 5 (150)Cedric Thompson, Minnesota FS
- 5 (156)Tony Lippett, Michigan State WR
Miami brought in lots of new weapons forRyan Tannehillthis off-season.Greg Jennings,Kenny StillsandJordan Cameronshould all be contributors, along with second-year slot receiverJarvis Landry. But none of those are gamebreakers the way that Devante Parker is. He may not have been as impressive at the combine, but Parker looks every bit as a good on tape asKevin WhiteorAmari Cooper.
Jordan Phillips will provide depth for the time being, with Ndamokung Suh andEarl Mitchellcurrently holding down the DT spots. But Phillips has huge potential if he can make the most of his size and athleticism. And unless every single NFL team knows something that none of us do, Jay Ajayi was the steal of the entire draft. He could be the answer at RB the dolphins have been looking for sinceRonnie BrownandRicky Williamsleft town in 2010. I also really like Jamil Douglas. I was hoping the Seahawks might end up with him.
Next: New England Patriots
