Cam Robinson

OT, Alabama

Just like the Detroit Lions, the Miami Dolphins came out of nowhere to make it to the playoffs this past season. Quarterback Ryan Tannehill played some of the best football of his career, leading the Dolphins to a Wild Card spot. In fact, Miami was one of the hottest teams in the league the last 12 weeks of the season, and who knows what they could have done if Tannehill did not hurt his knee late in the year.

Heading into next season, the Dolphins need to add some depth to their offensive line. Running back Jay Ajayi emerged as  breakout star this past season, and Jarvis Landry appears to be one of the best young wide receivers in the AFC. The Dolphins need to continue to take steps forward, and as long as Tom Brady is playing in their division, they are likely going to need to win a Wild Card spot.

Cam Robinson from Alabama is a nice offensive line prospect, who has good feet for somebody his size. Robinson played left and right tackle during his time with the Tide, though many believe he is more suited for the right side of the line at the next level. Still, he is an elite talent in this draft class, and the Dolphins need to keep their good, young stars protected going forward.
