Draft to complete.
Personally i think we have two options - complete the secondary or complete the defensive line.
Secondary - Vontae Davis, sean smith, will allen all starting calliber corners; SS YBell number one tackling saftey in the league . What's missing? a gaping whole at FS whether or not culver or clemons can fill the void remains to be seen. If the dolphins have an option in selecting Earl Thomas or Taylor Mays at 12 then that would complete our secondary. (it would consist of 3 first round picks (will allen (believe it or not, 2001 NY giants), vontae davis, and Thomas/mays) and a proven SS) this unit would progress as a whole and be a dominant force.

Defensive line in a 3-4 normally won't rack up the big numbers we like to see, but it's the heart and soul of the Defensive unit. Currently football focus has starks as the 2nd Best DE in a 3-4 Langford is 7 and a number 1 DT to the mix, Dan Williams really being the only option at 12, and the unit not only become complete, but elite.

OLB - is another vital part of the 3-4 it's our pass rush. Currently Cam Wake has upside but as rusher, not sure if he is the complete package. There will be outstanding talent available at 12 spot: Sergio Kindle, Brandon Graham, and Jason Paul-Pierre one of those will fall to use each can have a great impact. But are the dolphins really all that desperate for more sacks? Last year we were the THIRD IN THE LEAGUE LAST YEAR. A whopping 44 sacks; only the vikings (48) and steelers (47) were better.

If Dan Williams is not there at 12 then it becomes a no brainer and we either draft Taylor Mays (Bill Parcells guy ran faster 40 time then Berry and Thomas - "His official 40 time was 4.43 but 6 or 7 scouts had him clocked around the 4.31- 4.35 range", benched more, and 41 inch vertical at 231 pounds.) He needs to shed some weight and he only had 5 ints in 3 years i believe but he is very, very talented. Thomas would be the safer pick as a proven ball hawk though 8 int's in 2009.

If we do go with Thomas at 12, then we can only hope that either Cody falls to us in the 2nd or Cam Thomas falls to us in the 3rd, going for Cam Thomas in the 2nd would be a reach. The pick would be better spent on OLB if Cody is not available.
