Last night was fun. Let's do it again!
The live blog starts in the comments section. We'll go through the Dolphins pick.
Please understand that I am not going to sit here throughout the evening. There are interviews to be done, phone calls to be made, and I have a column to write. So the smart-alecks that ripped me for not being around all night last night, I hope you now understand why.
The names to look for in the second round, in my opinion?
Koa Misi, the outside linebacker from Utah. Robert Johnson, the safety from Utah. Ricky Sapp, outside backer from Clemson, Reshad Jones out of Georgia and Morgan Burnett of of G-Tech.
Darkhorses? Toby Gerhart of Stanford. I keep hearing the Dolphins want a RB out of this draft although the round remains uncertain.







colt mccoy here

Anybody who needs a safety consider trading in front of the Dolphins?
Posted by: Cam Cameron | April 23, 2010 at 06:35 PM
Armando,
The only one I think might have helped us is Allen. I think if we stay at 40 we're going to get a good player.
Posted by: Craig M | April 23, 2010 at 06:35 PM
Colt McCoy should be the guy.
Posted by: Calphin | April 23, 2010 at 06:35 PM
If we go safety it will be Morgan Burnett
Posted by: kyphinphan | April 23, 2010 at 06:35 PM
I like all those guys you suggested.
Misi is interesting to me along with Morgan Burnett
Posted by: Wayne Fontes | April 23, 2010 at 06:35 PM
Armando,
Do you ever get information from the Fins organization that they insist you cannot share? Like how you are telling us that the fins liked Allen, Price, McCluster and Cook, now and not before the draft? Just wondering.
Posted by: jared | April 23, 2010 at 06:35 PM
i think kindle goes here, if not McCoy or Clausen
Posted by: Zach | April 23, 2010 at 06:36 PM
How big is Washington?
Posted by: KjSimm | April 23, 2010 at 06:36 PM
def need cleveland to take a qb
Posted by: finfan23 | April 23, 2010 at 06:36 PM
Quick plug for this if anyone hasn't seen it: http://vimeo.com/10571924 - ESPN's 30 for 30 on Ricky Williams. Looks fantastic, especially if you're like me and love Ricky to death.
Posted by: Jim C | April 23, 2010 at 06:36 PM
sorry jumped the gun! ='( Cle then Oak...?
Posted by: DaveInJax | April 23, 2010 at 06:36 PM
Maybe we trade back again. Need more 3s.
Posted by: Calphin | April 23, 2010 at 06:36 PM
Reshad Jones? What do you think Mando?
Posted by: mr1313 | April 23, 2010 at 06:36 PM
Clausen or McCoy?
I would go Clausen.
Posted by: odinseye | April 23, 2010 at 06:36 PM
Can Everson Griffen be an OLB?
Posted by: MaCo | April 23, 2010 at 06:36 PM
Sergio Kindle is still there at 38. C'mon baby.
Posted by: Cosmo | April 23, 2010 at 06:36 PM
Jared, yes. All the time. A lot lately, especially in the jason Taylor situation.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | April 23, 2010 at 06:36 PM
NJ--I'm a Gator fan & live near St Thomas Acquinas & saw Wright play in HS...I like him alot but I don't think he's a #3---trouble in coverage, tho he hits like a freight train
Posted by: The Seer | April 23, 2010 at 06:36 PM
avril for real to miami was tweeted by mike berardino
Posted by: miami1354 | April 23, 2010 at 06:36 PM
These frs better not go to commercial again when the fins get ready to pick!!!!
Posted by: Robbyhenz | April 23, 2010 at 06:36 PM
Allen, Price, McCluster and Cook all players Dolphins liked. Gone.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | April 23, 2010 at 06:34 PM
I agree Mando... but now that this has happened you think there is any chance that the fins trade down for a second time???
Posted by: caymanfinfan | April 23, 2010 at 06:36 PM
I would go colt. He's a gamer.
Posted by: JStew | April 23, 2010 at 06:37 PM
fish take morgan burnett...i think
Posted by: figaro | April 23, 2010 at 06:37 PM
Mando,
Dolphins go arrelious benn. Sorry to contradict the defense first philosophy.
Posted by: Calphin | April 23, 2010 at 06:37 PM
being tweeted that avril trade is for real for a 5th
Posted by: finfan23 | April 23, 2010 at 06:37 PM
Anyone think the Bills take Clausen or Colt McCoy?
Posted by: nyfinfan | April 23, 2010 at 06:37 PM
HOW IS YOUR JAW FEELING FROM LAST NIGHT NJ PHIN FAN...YOU MUST HAVE GOING DOWN ON ME FOR ATLEAST 2 HOURS....I GIVE YOU MAD PROPS BUT A LITTLE LESS TEETH NEXT TIME
Posted by: ALoco | April 23, 2010 at 06:37 PM
Hey Armando,
What about Brandon Spikes, he on their 3rd round radar?
He's got prototype size but I don't know whether he'd be an OLB, or is projected as a ILB only.
Posted by: Ithaca Phin Fan | April 23, 2010 at 06:37 PM
Mando,
is Everson Griffen a hybrid DE/OLB?
Posted by: Zach | April 23, 2010 at 06:38 PM
Avril deal looks like it is true.
Posted by: Cam Cameron | April 23, 2010 at 06:38 PM
We should take Marino
Still better than any qb in the draft this year
Posted by: finfan23 | April 23, 2010 at 06:38 PM
Fins trade for stud olb for 5th rounder!
Posted by: Hef33 | April 23, 2010 at 06:38 PM
Come on Mays! Gerhart will be the best back of this class!
Go Phins!
Posted by: Martin | April 23, 2010 at 06:38 PM
San Antonio, Cody went from 368 to 343 in 6 weeks earlier this offseason. I was saying if he continued to lose weight, that would have been good.
Posted by: Armando Salguero | April 23, 2010 at 06:38 PM
I want the phins to get a starter and Cody is not anything more a 2 down guy. Raiders will get Mccoy or clausen. Wow. I think we should get McCoy or clausen and pay white to ufl tuskers.
Posted by: Calphin | April 23, 2010 at 06:39 PM
TJ Ward to Cleveland?
Posted by: Armando Salguero | April 23, 2010 at 06:39 PM
No Gronk! Please!! We can make due with what we got til next year when Vernon Davis come's to Mia to be with lil bro....='0
Posted by: DaveInJax | April 23, 2010 at 06:39 PM
Morgan Burnett
Posted by: KjSimm | April 23, 2010 at 06:39 PM
haha what is cleveland doing?
Posted by: Zach | April 23, 2010 at 06:40 PM
another DB!!!! damn there is a run on DB's!
Posted by: nyfinfan | April 23, 2010 at 06:40 PM
MLive says no avril trade per tom kowalski
Posted by: finfan23 | April 23, 2010 at 06:40 PM
Linval Joseph @ 40?
Posted by: Po White Trash | April 23, 2010 at 06:40 PM
I'm told Fins liked TJ Ward--saving u some work Mando ;-)
Posted by: Robbyhenz | April 23, 2010 at 06:40 PM
I say Kindle if he's still there. If not, Linval Joseph. Nate Allen is already off the board, and Mount Cody seems like he maybe a gamble
Posted by: paPhinsPhan | April 23, 2010 at 06:40 PM
TJ who??
Posted by: rickgezzy | April 23, 2010 at 06:40 PM
Mando...I agree...it's a good thing. But is it short term or is it indicative of a discipline/self-control issue?
Posted by: San Antonio Phin Fan | April 23, 2010 at 06:40 PM
kindle is the pick girls !
Posted by: d.n | April 23, 2010 at 06:40 PM
A QB ?THERE'S 5 LEFT AND 3 ARE VERY GOOD .
Posted by: ALoco | April 23, 2010 at 06:40 PM
Jim Brown: better actor or football player
Posted by: Dantheman#13 | April 23, 2010 at 06:40 PM
No mays!
Posted by: Truefan | April 23, 2010 at 06:40 PM
That was unexpected. Mel wants to shoot himself.
Posted by: JStew | April 23, 2010 at 06:40 PM
I say da bills take Clausen he is more of a complete QB then McCoy..
Posted by: Blismb | April 23, 2010 at 06:40 PM
TJ...Who???? What da #$^#
Posted by: DaveInJax | April 23, 2010 at 06:40 PM
Taylor Mays with Miami. Why not Mando ?
Posted by: Sebasmo | April 23, 2010 at 06:40 PM
Like you said when you wanted a receiver Armando, passing league indeed!!! All these DB's early.
Posted by: nyfinfan | April 23, 2010 at 06:41 PM
dang bucs trade ahead of the fins..... who do they want?
Posted by: jared | April 23, 2010 at 06:41 PM
taylor mays is a gibril wilson 2.0
have you seen this actual college game play videos, he is horrible
Posted by: test | April 23, 2010 at 06:41 PM
i think we have to get DB now, there arent going to be any left in the 3rd
Posted by: Zach | April 23, 2010 at 06:41 PM
Dolphins will select Clausen lol
Posted by: finfan23 | April 23, 2010 at 06:41 PM
