**2011 NFL Draft: Miami Dolphins select Daniel Thomas with the 62nd overall pick**

Mock_draft_logo_medium Miami_dolphins_medium
Rd. # Player Pos. College
2 62 Daniel Thomas
RB
Kansas St.

The Dolphins have traded with the Redskins to move back into the second round. And with the 62nd pick, the Miami Dolphins have selected running back Daniel Thomas.

Thomas, at 6'0, 230 pounds, is a big, strong back. He's a versatile back who can do a lot. But he's not a home run hitter. He doesn't have great top end speed.

Here's what Tony Pauline says about Thomas:

Positive: Strong, downhill runner who is best between the tackles. Displays good vision, is patient, and finds the opening in the offensive line. Runs north/south, keeps his feet driving up the field, and aggressively drives his shoulders into defenders. Quickly readjusts off the initial hit, immediately gets back to playing form, and falls forward when tackled. Picks up a lot of yardage off initial contact. Works his way on the inside and will pick and choose his spots. Displays solid running vision. Flashes the ability to quickly get around tackle.

Negative: Displays minimal burst and speed. Runs with an upright style. Has struggled with hamstring problems throughout the off-season.

Analysis: Thomas made a major impact when he arrived at Kansas State two years ago and has been one of the better ball carriers in the Big 12 ever since. He possesses the size and strength to be a feature runner in the NFL but must really improve the details of his game and show durability to be a consistent threat.

To move up from pick 79 to 62, the Dolphins had to give up their 5th round pick (146th) and a seventh round pick (217th) - leaving the Dolphins with just a 4th round pick, 6th round pick, and two seventh round picks.

Let's pray that we can get Mallett in the third

We should have taken him here. Nothing against Daniel Thomas.

should be enough to move up again if he keeps dropping… given the fact that we worked him out extensively and moved up to not draft him … will we cause him to drop more????

He doesn’t have top end speed either,but look,the guy even made the Madden cover.

Smh,with Long,Incognito,Pouncey,Jerry,Carey

We could see this guy mirror the Browns Running game production if not better because you can’t tell me Cleveland had a better line last year than we do this year.

I just got through watching 20 mins worth of highlights and this kid BEASTED his way to a heisman consideration.

It makes me turn a blind eye to their drawbacks,and it keeps me from thinking they could do anything wrong. To me my phins are #1 even if they go 1-15 because of their history,and I have faith that they will be there soon.

Just one "expert" opinion.

Here’s another from the NFL website:

Strengths

Thomas has a great blend of size, power and speed. Consistently gains yardage after contact and breaks arm tackles. Can push the pile. Possesses good vision and patience. Has great initial burst, especially for a big back. Can make defenders miss in the box with his quick feet. Willing and capable in pass pro. Durable and can handle the load.
Weaknesses

Occasionally waits a count too long before cutting upfield through the hole. Has great short-area athleticism but doesn’t possess great top-end speed to break a lot of long runs. Isn’t overly comfortable in the passing game. Not a refined route-runner and struggles at times to create space.


I’ll take the opinion of the second one.

what??

Did you even watch him in college? He’s pretty freakin’ good. If you had watched games with him, you’d know he was KSU’s ONLY offense, and they went to a bowl game and had a decent season. He’s a good back. Can run the wildcat randomly to get a good first down. FB, hahaha. Wow. That just proves you know nothing about him. Trust me. give him a chance. I wanted Mallet too. But give him a chance.

Marshall is on of the best receivers in the NFlL and if he had a QB that could get him the ball and an OC who would use him correctly then we would be all set.

Hopefully this changes this season. Marshall has proven he is an Elite receiver in the NFL and he did not just all of a sudden get “bad” when he joined the Phins. Its a combo of the play calling and Qb play which did not allow for a 12 TD season not Marshalls tallent.

He's saying that because Marshall,

a noted “bad character guy,” (in quotes because I don’t feel like arguing whether he is or isn’t a bad character guy, he’s perceived as one, which is the point), getting stabbed during a domestic dispute, something he is pretty notorious for, affected the FO’s draft strategy. Flip-her believes that Marshall’s… incident, led our FO to remove guys like Mallett from the draft board because of “character concerns.”

Projected 40 Time: 4.60.
Combine 40 Time: DNP.
Pro Day 40 Time: 4.60.
Benchx225: . Vertical: . Broad: .
Projected Round (2011): 2-3.
4/6/11: Daniel Thomas disappointed onlookers at his personal Pro Day, as he strained his quad after running the 40 once. Thomas clocked in at 4.60.

10/1/10: Thomas has really improved since last season and reportedly has shown better running instincts, power, and confidence. He has 628 rushing yards and six touchdowns thus far including a 234-yard performance against UCLA. Our concern here with Thomas is his highly upright running style, which will expose his legs to tacklers.

3/29/10: Daniel Thomas rushed for 1,265 yards and 11 touchdowns on a 5.1 YPC. He also caught 25 balls for 257 more yards. If he can run a fast 40, he may break into the first round.

If you think ahead, maybe the FO knows they will get D.Williams and are drafting a complementary back to Williams. Williams has the speed we need and if you think of it from that perspective it was a great pick. We will have a great 1-2 of the future if Thomas will be what I think he will.

OK .... so ...

Given the fact that everyone knows we want another QB to compete…. And we passed on him in the first … then jumped up in the draft to NOT draft him … could we help him fall to us later? We can always still jump up again into the 3rd .. can’t we? I mean … We gave a 3rd, 5th and 7th to jump up to the 2nd. Could we find someone to take a 4th, 6th and 1 or 2 7ths and jump up again?

I'm not having a fit

because we didn’t draft Mallet. I’m having a fit because we pissed away picks for a slow, injury prone RB. If they traded up for Mallet, Hankerson, Todman, Jones, or DJ Williams, fine by me. Thomas would have been there in Round 3.

Every Player has negative shit.

Thomas was projected way above Todman…[whom I endorsed] and has “shit”]
Well..here is a portion of Todmans analysis…

“Breaking tackles: Needs to improve in this category to be a consistent performer. Has some elusiveness in the open field but is by no means elite or a bullish runner.

Blocking: Diminutive frame makes him a liability in pass protection. Lacks the strength to stand up to oncoming defenders. Going into the flat as a safety valve is his way of alleviating pass rush on second- or third-and-long."

and given the negatives for Thomas, you would trade half of your remaining draft picks to go up and get him, when we could agree that one of these backs, if not more, would have been there in round 3?

You wont beat either at this point.

Look at it this way, you had one hell of a run and now they need a year or two to retool. The spurs have a brighter outlook going forward then the mavs do seeing as they are all at the end or near the end of their career.

neither of those guys qualifies as a vet to me

Young is a whiny, lazy, narcissist who never had the talent his supporters think he does, and Kolb is something even worse: AJ Feely redux. One’s a washout and the other is fool’s gold, and I would take Henne’s responsible mediocrity over either of them.

Probably the only guy out there that is an upgrade over Henne is Palmer, and I think the Bengals want him around to mentor the Ginger Hammer. Which means the QB position isn’t getting a significant upgrade, and we all better get used to the idea of another low-scoring year.

If Mallett was so great why did all those other teams draft him

 And you all are crying about him going to a team that he isn’t gonna start on barring injury for 5-6 years? He’ll probably be traded by then.

Honestly grow up a lil bit.

If Mallett lives up to his potential

Brady won’t retire a Patriot. Belichick is thinking of a Montana to Young type transition, getting picks for Brady just as he starts to decline, but before his value erodes, in two or three years.

Granted, that’s if Mallett works out, and that’s a big if. But I wouldn’t assume that Brady retires a Pat at all. If not Mallett, then someone else.

it’s a little ridiculous. I think Thomas can be a stud. Yea, he may not be a home run hitter, be he is decisive, smooth, and huge. He’s got good burst through the hole, and always falls forward. I saw him mocked to us in the first earlier this season. I think he’ll be good. Hopefully we can pair him with a taiwan jones type.

Please draft Ahmad Black, he is the epitome of 'playmaker,' which is the one thing our D lacks.

Is the constant bickering an belittling by our own fans. Seriously thinking about moving back to miami simply to see the games myself,“even if I’m the only one there” so I don’t have to listen to this pointless negativity.

im as bummed as anyone but we arent the worst team we did a decent job last year we were torn by injuries an our qb play suffered which threw our season intot he toilet. we needed a C we needed a Rb we got both theres free agency and our d is stout. not to mention Edds and Odrick coming back full strnagth and henne possibly having a resurgence considering our oline being more solid in run blocking and a youthful RB in the backfield. Mallett wouldve been nice but ey at least we wont have to see him any time soon and we werent that far off last season and i think we are going in a good direction.

Mike Pouncey played center for 1 year and everyone thinks he’s gonna drop the ball all over the place. I hate how much dolphin phans are impatient. Do you guys understand that we aren’t gonna draft a guy at QB who is gonna get us into the playoffs this year? Our best chance to make a run was with the O-Line and a solid RB. Thomas reminds me of Mendenhal, he will be productive. Look at Henne’s numbers and Sanchez’s numbers before you hate on Henne so much. What is the difference between the two QBs??? I’ll tell you, THEIR O-LINES!!! Well guess what…ours is gonna be fantastic now as well.

Thomas is a big back who isn't physical and puts the ball on the ground

There were better options that we wouldn’t have to trade away half of our draft to get.

Who was left at 15?

Now the only reason Mallett might be successful is he is on a good team with Brady as a mentor for however long it takes brady to retire.. Other than that the 2 decent qb prospects were already taken (both were stretches already). We have picked up two good players that will contribute their rookie years. I don’t know how or when we’ll get a franchise qb. But this obviously wasn’t the year for trying to get one.. I’m thinking next year when USC’s qb and Stanfords are by far better prospects than all in this draft. We’ll be thanking ourselves later for not reaching for a qb this year.. they all suck.

by Kellenman08 on Apr 30, 2011 2:12 AM EDT up reply actions  

Gabbert is a phenomenal QB prospect

all the physical tools, and reportedly very smart in the meetings. He fell to 9, even though he was projected between 1 and 5 by most people. We had the ammo to go up to 9 and get him, and we didn’t.

We’ve passed on numerous franchise QB’s for lesser prospects in the last decade. It’s not about this year, it’s a cumulative thing. This franchise, as a whole, no matter who is in charge, doesn’t value the QB position. For whatever reason, through 2 owners, multiple GM’s and Coaches, we still haven’t found a good option at QB.

And this obviously was the year to go after a QB, because 4 went in the top 12. You can think all about next year’s prospects, but we’ll be 6-10ish and once again on the outside looking in for Luck/Jones/Barkley. Our defense is way too good for us to bottom out far enough to get a top 5 pick, and if all those guys are as good as you think they will be, we won’t get a shot at them.

Here's my final thoughts on this part of the draft

It’s obvious that we are either not going to address the QB position or we are going after a FA. Word ‘round the campfire is the team is looking to upgrade from Henne. So it’s likely through free agency. This process has yet to work for us and we can only hope that it means we are biding time to get to 2012 to get Luck.

I think we have reached on both of our picks. Pouncey may play center, but even then, he’s like the 2nd highest drafted center in 30 some years or something. He must become elite and stay there in order to make that pick worthwhile. We reached for Thomas because we traded half of our draft for him.

But as I said earlier, I will support the new Dolphins because they play for my team. I don’t think they were the best options, but I hope they can help our team. Pouncey should help our O-line and Thomas “should” give us a big back. Let’s hope these picks pan out.

FA QBs NEVER work out. Brees is about the ONLY example. Teams just do not let good QB talent get away. FA QBs are either washed up, over priced, or just not that good. The best QBs are found through the draft. I don’t care how good Pouncey or Thomas become. They will never lead us to a championship. We need a QB for that and right now, we don’t have one that can.

Name another successful FA QB that we have gotten… or any team for that matter. Kurt Warner did well in Arizona after he looked washed up in NY. Other than that, I can’t think of one good FA QB that has made his team perennial contenders. However I can name most, if not all, of the duds we have gone after trying to fill the franchise QB role.

And enough with the personal attacks. You keep complaining about the Phinsider “censoring you” for whatever reason. Maybe if you weren’t so abrasive and didn’t call everyone “fools” and “clowns”, then Matty wouldn’t need to ban you.

Use them all...

Take 2008 for example. We could have trade every other pick we had and moved up to draft Ryan too. Of course, everyone would have said “But we need those picks.” Well those picks became Kendall Langford and Lex Hilliard. That’s it. A backup RB that might get cut this year and a 3-4 DE (not an overly valuable position). Would it not have been worth it to use all of those picks to trade up and we would have had Long AND Ryan?

No

that will barely move you up 4 spots.
Those later picks aren’t valuable
They are good for depth and projects/value picks. If you think a player is great and all you have to give up 4th and 5th round picks it isn’t even a question if you should do it.
those players probably won’t be amazing

Stanzi Should be taken Next for the Phins

Many people (as expected) would be opposed to the pick. Yes i know he is not any of the big name guys, but what he is makes up for what those guys don’t have. Stanzi first and formost has the smarts which most QBs should have, but he has proven himself at Iowa to be more than just a smart QB. Second he has the tough guy you must respect me mentality that fits this regime. Any QB who does not demand respect will not last long in the NFL. Third he forgets the bad plays and builds on the good ones. He may be a little rough around the edges but a round 4 steal, and a QB that could take over in the near future.

I hope....

I hope we re-sign Ronnie Brown. At first I was “okay” with letting Ronnie and Ricky go….. But then I remembered why I became such an avid Dolphins fan in the first place. My best friend at the time was a Fins fan was the intitial reason. but then when I grew interest in the NFL I began to love Ricky. Then he “retired” and I became an avid Ronnie Brown fan. Next year just won’t be the same if one of them isn’t back…. I hope we re-sign Ronnie. Ronnie and Daniel THomas backfield could be pretty good. We talk about homerun, homerun, homerun….Do the Colts have a legit homerun threat? Not really. But yet they’re successful. These potential “homerun” threats in the draft are many of times busts. I mean Ted Ginn for example has “homerun” threat, what happened to him? CJ SPiller?

IDK, I’m happy with the fins draft, but I think we need Ronnie back…. BTW, Frank Gore isn’t lightning speed, but he still produces on a high level….. Homerun threat isn’t everything fellas….

Why is there so much hate for this pick? I honestly feel this guy is kind of like a Frank Gore. Sure the “injury prone” comments scare the hell out of me but the upside is tremendous. He runs north/south but can cut corners very well. He is strongest while running up the middle which will grab the backfield of the defenses’ attention. Also, what’s with everyone complaining about the fumbles? The guy hasn’t lost a fumble in 2 years!

Maybe, Just Maybe

We can be reasonable with regards to the choice to not use a high draft pick on a QB.
Chad Henne had many things acting against him this past year

1.) Underachieving offensive line
2.) No running game
3.) Offensive coordinator holding him back from making too many vertical throws.

Let’s see what we have done so far this draft…

1.) Shored up the interior line
2.) A new body at running back with potential
3.) A new offensive coordinator

We are putting Henne in a position to succeed. I believe he is better than Sanchez, just Sanchez has the better supporting cast. If he can’t deliver this year without the holdbacks from last year. Than we trade our entire draft and Chad Henne to get Andrew Luck

Lets give this FO enough chance to see what they have in mind, we may still make a play for a DeAngelo and pair him with Thomas.

We may also make a play for a QB, lets see. Even if we don’t, this will be the make or break it year. Our moves are designed to give Henne a better running game and a better line. I think we will take a TE or Speed WR in 4th. All good moves for our offense.

our 5th rounder last year was Nolan Carrol

Year before that was Chris Clemmons,,year before that we picked OG,and our first year was runningback. Truth is,we seem to find our value in the later rounds previous rounds. This year we fill 2 offensive needs in the first 2.

Anyone that thought we would be able to fill ALL our needs this draft needs to see that I have land in Rome to sell and I promise to build it in a day.

Smart drafting is being blindly discounted by the fact that this FO has not had the amount of time teams like the Patriots have to build relationships with trading partners. Besides that,we haven’t built a team that can risk letting go of this years draft,to pick up multiple picks next year,or let go of next years draft to gain multiple picks this year. But we are getting there.

People seem to forget that New England didn’t just AQUIRE this power,they built up to it. We had a defense that was torn down by many coaching and front office busts over the years,and it takes time to get that back. But the good news is,we are getting there. Give it time,try to see the vision through. Don’t let the win now philosophy in your mind blind you to the fact that we took care off two pressing needs so far. With more draft yet to come. Have patience and faith and I promise you won’t be disappointed.
