Dolphins News: Dolphins looking for starting right tackle in NFL Draft?

Dolphins news sets its sights on May's 2014 NFL Draft, with the Miami Dolphins possibly tipping their hand on what direction they may want to go with their first couple of picks.

Michael David Smith of NBC Sports Network's Pro Football Talk sheds some more light on where the Miami Dolphins' mindset may lie draft-wise, with a distinct focus on the starting offensive line being a major possibility --

"The Miami Herald runs through some of the possibilities for the Dolphins with their first-round draft pick, No. 19 overall, and right tackle looks like a strong possibility. Dolphins owner Stephen Ross, a Michigan graduate and booster, “thinks the world of Taylor Lewan.”

The problem with setting their sights on the former Wolverines offensive tackle is that many draft experts have Lewan being plucked up prior to the Dolphins picking at #19.

As a back up plan, Smith notes that former Notre Dame offensive tackle Zack Martin could be plan B, with a chance that they may "trade up to get one of them" if they feel like both may be gone by the time that the Miami Dolphins are on the clock.
