Michigan defensive lineman Rashan Gary has been linked to the Miami Dolphins in at least one national mock draft.
Jimmy Johnson, the story goes, was trying to decide on a first-round draft pick prior to the 1990 draft. And the then-Dallas Cowboys coach needed a running back because he’d traded Herschel Walker the year before and had a huge void to fill.
Johnson studied and planned and talked to people, and he kept coming back to Emmitt Smith.
Except Smith was only 5-foot-9. Didn’t bother Johnson.
Smith ran only a 4.6 in the 40. Didn’t bother Johnson.
