Miami Dolphins: B+ Round 1, Pick 1: Jake Long, OT, Michigan Round 2, Pick 32: Phillip Merling, DE, Clemson Round 2, Pick 57: Chad Henne, QB, Michigan Round 3, Pick 66: Kendall Langford, DE, Hampton Round 4, Pick 110: Shawn Murphy, OG, Utah State Round 6, Pick 176: Jalen Parmele, RB, Toledo Round 6, Pick 195: Donald Thomas, OG, Connecticut Round 6, Pick 204: Lex Hilliard, RB, Montana Round 7, Pick 245: Lionel Dotson, DT, Arizona The Dolphins have many holes to fill on both sides of the ball, but they took a major step in doing so with a solid draft. All successful Parcells-built clubs have had a signature solid offensive front. And by drafting Jake Long, Shawn Murphy and Donald Thomas, he once again showed his commitment to that goal. Both Parmele and Hilliard are tough north-south runners who move the chains. Merling has good playing potential, but needs to improve his overall play strength. Look for him to eventually play down inside in sub-packages. Henne should develop into a steady starter within the league, but is not nearly ready to challenge for a starting position within the league. Dotson is a wide body who played hard, but lacks a degree of quickness, range, and stamina. http://profootballexperts.scout.com/2/751682.html
