Who should the Miami Dolphins take with their first four picks?

Miami fills needs at EDGE and WR in round 2
player. 834. Pick Analysis. Miami (FL). Gregory Rousseau. 36. Scouting Report. EDGE
According to many draft “pundits,” Rousseau is in a very awkward position after opting out of the 2020 College Football season. For most of the offseason and pre-draft process, the former Miami Hurricane sat as the top EDGE rusher in the draft but is now being talked about as if he will fall to the second round.
In his sophomore season in Miami, Rousseau was one of the nation’s top EDGE rushers culminating 15.5 sacks and leading a fairly good Hurricanes defense. With the Dolphins’ need at the position and the clear talent displayed by the South Florida native, taking Rousseau at 36 would be an absolute steal. He should be a day one starter in Flores’ defense.
player. 848. Pick Analysis. Purdue. 50. Scouting Report. Wr. RondaleMoore
After not taking a wideout with the team’s first three picks, taking Moore with their second pick in the second round would be a smart move for the Dolphins.
Adding an explosive slot wideout to a group already featuring a deep ball expert in Will Fuller, and three big ‘go up and get it’ guys, would help progress the Dolphins offense along with Tagovailoa.
Moore offers a potential Tyreek Hill-level playmaker with his blend of speed and explosiveness that NFL offenses salivate over. Despite his 5-foot-7 frame, Moore tested in the upper 90 percentile of all combine tests. He’s the real deal as a wideout and kick returner.
