There's still one move left to make, and he shouldn't think twice about pulling the trigger. Or personally sprinting the draft card to Roger Goodell so he could announce the latest Tannenbaum Special.
"With the ninth pick in the 2016 NFL draft, the Miami Dolphins select Ezekiel Elliott, running back, Ohio State."
Yes, I am suggesting –– demanding, even –– that Miami sneaks up four measly slots to secure Elliott, succeeding Lamar Miller with a potential Pro Bowl talent, said to be the best RB prospect since Adrian Peterson.I want the guy who ran for 1,821 yards and 23 TDs last season; who, at 225 pounds, clocked a 4.47 forty-yard dash time, a 1.58 10-yard split and a nine-foot-10 broad jump; who has biggest hands (10 1/4-inch) among all draft-eligible RBs.
Once a pipe-dream, acquiring Elliott has now become a plausible scenario for the Dolphins, who struck out on C.J cheap NFL jerseys Anderson, Chris Johnson, and James Starks in free agency.
"Several teams convinced there will be more deals wholesale jerseys near top of draft. MIA (Elliott) and TEN (Conklin/Stanley) possibly moving up," CBS Sports NFL insider Jason La Canfora tweeted Saturday.
The Rams' trade to No. 1 overall and the Eagles' move to No. 2 has opened the floodgates for similar transactions. Unlike them, Miami cheap jerseys wouldn't have to surrender a king's ransom to jump from 13 to 9, where the Buccaneers currently sit.
According to the league's draft value chart, it'd cost the Dolphins 200 "points" to swing the deal. A third-rounder (205 points) theoretically gets it done, as would a combination of late-round selections.
Why Tampa Bay as a trade partner? Two reasons: They already have their franchise RB in Doug Martin and are targeting defense –– specifically, a cornerback.
Sliding to 13 means they might lose out on Florida's wholesale NFL jerseys Vernon Hargreaves, the draft's consensus second-best CB, but in position to land William Jackson, Eli Apple or Mackensie Alexander. With an extra third-round choice to boot. Not a bad haul.
At 9, more importantly, the Dolphins are in the driver's seat for Elliott's services, having leapfrogged their biggest competition –– the Giants (No. Wholesale Washington Redskins jerseys 10) and Bears (No. 11), where he's "squarely" on the radar, per the Chicago Sun-Times.
