The Miami Dolphins have never drafted a tight end in the first round of the NFL draft.
Mad Dog, Jim Mandich came in the second round almost 50 years ago. Since then, Miami has flopped with names like Loaird McCreary, Chuck Bradley or Andre Tillman in the second round. Tillman sounds familiar if one can recollect anything from 1974. Way back to the early 80’s Miami had some luck in the later rounds with Joe Rose, Bruce Hardy and Dan Johnson.
Perhaps the most accomplished tight end in Miami history is Keith Jackson who came as a free agent in 1992.
