Dolphins Draft Needs
Urgent: A franchise outside linebacker is the Miami Dolphins most urgent need as Joey Porter is great but getting old, Matt Roth is mediocre, and Erik Walden is promising but raw.
Strong: Strong needs are an upgrade at both starting safeties and another good cornerback to improve the secondary.
Moderate: A wide receiver to play opposite Ted Ginn Jr. and a third offensive tackle are needed.
Nice to Have: Best available players.
Wild Card: Will running back Ronnie Brown stay healthy and how much does Ricky Williams have left in body and heart?
