Top targets for Dolphins after the draft

Since the draft was shortened from 12 rounds to 7 in 1994, many good players will find themselves going undrafted. Every year, many undrafted free agents (UDFA) make the final roster of NFL clubs.

The Miami Dolphins filled needs at DE, LB, OG and DT but their draft work isn’t done yet. Miami could still bolster depth at several of need with UDFA. As the name implies, these players are truly free agents and are free to sign with whichever team they choose.

Below is a list of 10 players that I believe Miami should pursue heavily and convince them to sign with Miami.

WR Amba Etta-Tawo (Syracuse) *Singed with Jacksonville

Etta-Tawo possesses good size and great speed but is knocked for having questionable hands. In time, he could become a deep threat in a 4WR set. At worst, he’s your scout team vertical/slot threat till Miami finds out if his flaws are correctable.

TE Antony Auclair (Laval, Canada) *Signed with Tampa Bay

NFL.com compares Auclair to current TE Anthony Fasano but, looking at his tape, I see a taller Dion Sims. He’s raw as a route runner but could replace Fasano next year as the 2nd/in-line TE.

OL Aviante Collins (TCU) *Signed by Minnesota

Really athletic tackle prospect that also benched 34 reps at the Combine. He needs work on his footwork and technique but, with coaching, could become a ‘swing tackle’ in the pros.

OL Levon Meyers (Northern Illinois) *Signed by Dallas

Similar to Collins, Meyers has to clean up some technique issues but could has the athleticism to become a tackle in the pros and may even be able to add mass and play at guard.

**DE Keionta Davis (Tennessee-Chatanooga)

Davis had 29.5 career sacks but faced lower level competition. Despite the sack production, may find a niche more as an Andre Branch than a true pass rusher.

DT Josh Tupou (Colorado) *Signed with Cincinnati
