    After this year's NFL Draft, the Dolphins might want to think about hiring a few more chefs at the team's Davie facility. The team continued to bolster its offensive and defensive lines with its final six picks Sunday, and also added two large running backs.

    The final weigh-in? Five of the team's nine total picks weigh more than 290 pounds -- and the average weight of those nine players is 275 pounds.

    OK, so maybe that's because the team decided against drafting any wide receivers or defensive backs (possibly the only major knock against the team's overall drafting outcome). But the team clearly still maintained its focus of strengthening the trenches.

    The Dolphins surely got bigger, tougher and stronger this weekend.
