Experts discuss better Dolphins WR fit: Ja'Marr Chase or DeVonta Smith?

DAVIE, Fla. -- A top Miami Dolphins priority this offseason is surrounding quarterback Tua Tagovailoa with better offensive playmakers, and their top asset is the No. 3 pick in the 2021 NFL draft.

The draft's top two wide receivers -- Alabama's DeVonta Smith and LSU's Ja'Marr Chase -- have to be on the short list of candidates for that pick and there's strong arguments for both to be the first receiver selected.

Smith, the Heisman Trophy winner, excels with unique quickness, acceleration, route running and has a knack for separating and making plays.
