Dolphins select two corners on Day One
The Miami Dolphins addressed their need for a cornerback in the NFL draft by choosing two within the top three rounds. In the first round, the team picked Vontae Davis of Illinois. While Davis was a possibility in some mock drafts, other players of need such as LB Clay Matthews and WR Hakeem Nicks were also available (both were chosen soon after the Dolphins picked). Miami then selected West Virginia QB Pat White in the second round. White is expected to fill more of a "slash" role in the Wildcat offense than to be a legitimate threat to Chad Pennington and Chad Henne. With their last pick on Day One, the Dolphins selected Utah CB Sean Smith. I don't know much about Smith, but a report on him that I found thought he might be too tall (6' 3") for CB and could be better suited to play safety.
