The news came earlier this week that the Miami Dolphins would not only be present at the 2021 Senior Bowl, but that their technical team will be available at full strength to coach one of the two teams of NFL aspirants. It is a massive victory for the Dolphins, who will reap the rewards of being so inclined to build their franchise through the NFL Draft under the command of general manager Chris Grier and coach Brian Flores.
Who are the prospects for Flores and the Dolphins ahead of the event, which will be held later this month in Mobile, Alabama?
Here are a series of possible “layout adjustments” or players in important positions. The more Miami players get their hands on, the better.
CB Elijah Molden, Washington
Molden is a talented cornerback who, despite the feeling of redundancy in the Miami depth chart, can give a boost. Miami has been deliberate in dealing with choosing Noah Igbinoghene’s first round to keep him at the perimeter, where, like Molden, he spent a lot of time on nickel. The off-season of 2021 will be a great chance to explore improving this position for Miami, which was operated by UDFA Nik Needham 2019.
