Dolphins draft pick review: Insider look at Thomas Duarte

The Miami Dolphins selected tight end Thomas Duarte in the seventh round of the 2016 NFL Draft. What does he bring to the team?

The Miami Dolphins spent much of the 2016 NFL Draft moving around the draft order in order to target specific players that they felt would best fit the new offensive and defensive systems being installed for this season. The Drafted started with the team adding offensive tackle Laremy Tunsil, then moved to the defense with the selection of cornerback Xavien Howard in the second round. The third round featured two picks for Miami, running back Kenyan Drake and wide receiver Leonte Carroo, followed next by two sixth round picks, wide receiver Jakeem Grant and defensive back Jordan Lucas.
