Dolphins draft Jakeem Grant: An insider look from Viva the Matadors

The Miami Dolphins used the 186th overall pick in the 2016 NFL Draft to select Texas Tech wide receiver and return man Jakeem Grant. The Dolphins initially traded away the 186th pick, a sixth round selection, as part of their package to the Minnesota Vikings in exchange for moving back into the third round, where they added Rutgers wide receiver Leonte Carroo. After some other trades, the Dolphins used a sixth-round pick and a seventh-round pick, sending them to the Vikings in order to move back into the 186th spot.

As crazy as the moves to get out of and then back into spot 186, the story is obviously the team's selection of Grant.
