RB Myles Gaskin
Everyone under the sun assumed that Gaskin was going to have his replacement drafted at some point early on in the 2021 NFL Draft. That decision never came. Perhaps it would have if the team had elected to prevent the Broncos from jumping up to the No. 35 overall pick to draft North Carolina’s Javonte Williams. But Miami opted to stay put and draft Holland and Eichenberg within the next 10 picks.
Miami would wait until their final selection to acquire a running back, leaving some fans queasy about the forecast on the ground. But Gaskin earned the trust of the Dolphins’ staff quickly last year; he will have the chance to do the same as their presumed featured back of 2021.
