    14) Miami Dolphins - Melvin Gordon III (RB Wisconsin)

    Mocking Melvin Gordon here is not an indictment on newly minded 1,000 yard rusher Lamar Miller. Rather, value and need in this particular mock draft scenario points to MG3 being the best pick for the team. I'm sure another point of contention will be taking a running back this high, but the notion that running backs are a dying breed in the NFL is a misnomer. Look at many of the best teams in the NFL; Dallas, Seattle, Green Bay, Pittsburgh, they all have feature backs, with no semblance of a committee. Melvin Gordon is a Demarco Murray, Lesean McCoy esque gamechanger who would give the Dolphin offense a 'fear factor.' Their other main need of defensive tackle presents poor value with the 14th pick.
