Dolphins Draft Rewind: 2014

Round 1

With their first round selection (19th overall), Miami drafted T JuWuan James from Tennessee. With four offensive lineman drafted before their pick, and a major need at right tackle, some believe that Miami reached for James.

Four years later, James has turned in three solid years as right tackle and is currently penciled in as the RT for the 2017 season.

WR Brandon Cooks (20th) and S Ha Ha Clinton Dix (21st) turned out to be Pro Bowl caliber players. It’s also become widely known that former head coach Joe Philbin pushed for Miami to draft QB Derek Carr (36th overall) but ultimately didn’t get his way.
