Draft watch: Running back remains in play after Dolphins acquire Malcolm Brown in free agency

The Miami Dolphins had five different running backs play in at least five games last season. Keep in mind, that doesn’t include DeAndre Washington, who was traded to the team in the midst of the season and played in three games.

In his two years as coach, Brian Flores has focused less on top-end talent and more on a well-round 53-man roster. The team’s recent acquisition of Malcolm Brown echoes that same mindset.

Brown, a six-year vet, played in 16 games last season and averaged 4.1 yards per carry on 101 attempts. His season also included five touchdowns on the ground, more than anyone on the Dolphins in 2020.
