26. Miami Dolphins (from HOU)
Josh Jones | OT | Houston
After trading away Laremy Tunsil, the Dolphins are in desperate need of a franchise left tackle to protect their investment in Tagovailoa. In this scenario, the Dolphins luck out by landing a player who can start immediately and give them the upgrade they need.
Jones silenced questions about the level of competition he faced in college with strong week of practice at the Senior Bowl. He’s still got room to grow from a technique standpoint, but he’s got all the tools to quickly become a franchise left tackle.
Don’t count out USC’s Austin Jackson here either, or a running back given that Miami traded away No. 39 overall to move up in this mock for Tua. All of this year’s backs are still on the board, and they could take one here if they think they can get a tackle with the later second-rounder they still have.
