A Miami Dolphins mock draft featuring all SEC players

Three instant impact players round outs Miami All-SEC draft
The Auburn wideout had a productive junior season at Auburn with 54 reception, for 636 receiving yards and three touchdowns, but his main merit is his speed.
Once recorded at a 4.27 40-yard dash, Schwartz has both the size, 6-feet 179-Lbs, and speed that NFL teams love to see. Combine that with the fact that he has played against some major competition and its something that stands out.
With the way Kansas City turned Tyreek Hill into an All-Pro wideout, Miami could find something similar in Schwartz who could help open up the field for Tagoviloa. Schwartz has a 12.9 yards per catch career average which shows he is more than capable of taking the top off defenses.
In his junior season at Mississippi State, Hill was in the top-three of rushing in the SEC. Then the team brought in Mike Leach and Hill did not fit in the air raid forcing him to opt out to prepare for the draft.
At 5-foot-11 209-Lbs, Hill is a sturdy back who runs with power. With Miami’s need for a running back, Hill seemed like a good option to fit the SEC need.
After rushing for 1,350 yards and 10 touchdowns his junior season, many believed that Hill would break out in 2021 and improve his draft stock. While he will have that chance to build his stock in offseason workout, it is not a death sentence for running backs to fall late.
With a team like the Dolphins needing a running back, there’s a chance Hill could come in and earn significant carries as a rookie.
Steven plays hard and fast and is bound to get you a tackle if you need it, something that a Flores coach defense is built on.
It is unlikely that Stevens would be starting on defense his rookie season, but he would see snaps. Rather he is more than likely to start on special teams and would be in line to make a major impact there.
Earning your stripes is important and Stevens would get that opportunity on special teams, if he can develop then it would be a great pick for the Phins.
