With their final pick in the fifth round, the Dolphins selected defensive tackle Davon Godchaux out of LSU.
The Dolphins were looking to add some depth on the defensive line and Godchaux will be able to provide that behind Jordan Phillips and Ndamukong Suh.
Let’s take a look at what Dolphins Twitter is saying about the selection.
