Best players of each Miami Dolphins draft class
By Brian Miller
The Dolphins are in the middle of their worst periods in franchise history. In the span of three seasons the team has watched Dave Wannstedt resign, Nick Saban resign, and have hired their third head coach in Cam Cameron. Cameron would last only one season and his draft class would prove to be as bad.
With quarterback the major need for the team, Cameron and GM Randy Mueller passed on prospects and drafted speedy WR Ted Ginn, Jr. The selection was loudly booed by the fans in attendance at the Dolphins facility draft party.
While Ginn is still in the league he was bust in Miami as it took him a few years to develop and Miami’s quarterback situation was not good.
Miami drafted John Beck in round two who was a huge bust. Samson Satele, also in round two played well but not well enough to warrant a contract extension when his rookie deal was complete. Paul Soliai started slow but came on strong in his final two seasons with Miami and signed a big free agent contract with Atlanta after his deal was complete.
In round seven the Dolphins landed punter Brandon Fields who remained with Miami until the 2014 season. He joined New Orleans for the 2015 season. He did not play in 2016.
