Here is another mockdraft from pick 20 thru 25. Who would you choose if these players were available? This mock from newnfldraft.com has us going with V Davis from Illinois. I would think he would be gone by number 25, but a young CB is needed by the Dolphins. Will Allen isn't getting any younger, and Jason Allen hasn't proved himself yet. I am really rooting for J Allen to finally come out, but The Dolphins still needs a good shutdown corner, and V.Davis could be that guy.

20. Detroit Lions (Dallas): Brian Cushing, OLB, USC
The Lions go after a very good defensive player here. Cushing has the potential to go in the top ten but I have him falling because the great DE’s in the 2009 NFL Mock Draft. Lions will be thrilled to get a play maker like Cushing with the 20th pick.
21. Philadelphia Eagles: Knowshon Moreno, RB, Georgia
The Eagles get a very good RB here who can both run up the middle as well as catch the ball out of the back field. He not only will help complement Westbrook but he will stay healthy as well.
22. Minnesota Vikings: Duke Robinson, OT/G, OU
The Vikings Offensive line isn’t getting any younger and they could lose some guys in the offseason. Duke Robinson has all the potential in the world to play any offensive line position.
23. NE Patriots: James Laurinaitis, ILB, Ohio St.
The Patriots could go with another ILB to match up with Jerod Mayo the beast from Tennessee. So they do exactly that and get James Laurinaitis from OSU. I think Laurinaitis is going to show he isn’t a great ILB but in the Patriot scheme he could be very good I believe.
24. Atlanta Falcons: Louis Delmas, FS, W. Mich
The Falcons get a good safety here from a small school. Delmas has come out as the top Safety in this 2009 NFL Draft class.
25. Miami Dolphins: Vontae Davis, CB, ILL
Whatever Parcels decides to do in the 2009 NFL Draft I will agree with I am just guessing. They Badly need a corner in the 2009 NFL Season and Vontae Davis brings a lot of play making ability to a secondary.

Miami Dolphins Trade for a DT
Tony McDaniel from Jacksonville was traded to the Miami Dolphins for a 7th round pick. It looks like the Dolphins are trying to add depth at every position. Last year, I think that was lacking (depth). Parcells and Company have brought in a LB (Cameron Wake), a FS (Gribril Wilson), a CB (Green), a center (Jake Grove), and now traded for a DT, which may be converted to DE and replace Vonnie Holliday. Here is the full article from Sun Sentinel.com,
"The Dolphins got significantly bigger on the defensive front Friday when a trade for defensive tackle Tony McDaniel was finalized with the Jaguars.
McDaniel, who reportedly carries his 6-foot-7, 310-pound frame well, instantly becomes the Dolphins' biggest defensive lineman, and adds much needed depth and experience to the defense's young front line.
The trade, which was finalized when McDaniel passed a physical on Friday, sends Jacksonville one of the team's three seventh-round picks.
It is the first move the Dolphins have made to sure up a unit that saw defensive end Vonnie Holliday, the unit's leader, get released earlier this month to trim salary.
Examine the Dolphins' present team needs Nose tackle Jason Ferguson, who turns 35 this year, may be in his final season considering he's openly talked about retirement after playing 12 seasons. McDaniel will likely compete with Paul Soliai and former Gator Joe Cohen for the role as Ferguson's primary backup.
He contributed 16 tackles and half a sack in 10 games for the Jaguars last season before going on the injured reserve.
The Dolphins will pick up McDaniel's existing contract, which calls for the 24-year-old to make $1 million in 2009, and $1.85 million in 2010."

Miami Dolphins Sign Eric Green
With Andre Goodman and Renaldo Hill gone, the left side of the backfield was a must to address the Dolphins Secondary. Two free agents have been signed. Gribril Wilson as the FS and Eric Green as the new CB. History shows the Wilson should be an upgrade over Hill, but bloggers have been skeptical of the Green signing. I for one am fine with the signing. I still think the Dolphins will address the CB position early in the draft (D. Butler?). Green/Wilson should be an improvement over Goodman/Hill. Here are Green's stats:
Green (5-11, 196 pounds), started 33 games for the Cardinals over the past four years. Arizona selected him in the third round of the 2005 draft. He started nine games and had 32 tackles and one interception in 2008. In his four seasons, Green has registered 143 tackles (91 solo), forced three fumbles, intercepted two passes, deflected 25 passes, and blocked four kicks.

Dolphins and Terrell Owens?
Don't count on it. Terrell Owens was released from the Dallas Cowboys on 3/4/09. Terrell Owens is still a great player at his age. I think he would help any receving core on a team. But the question remains whether or not he is a "cancer" in the clubhouse. I'm a fan of looking at talent first. I would be ok with hiim going to the Miami Dolphins. In fact, I would welcome it. He is the big receiver that Miami needs. He would compliment the deep threat with Ted Ginn. Chad Pennington is a guy who doesn't focus on one receiver. He has his reads and progressions, but if a player isn't open he is going to the next guy. Pennington likes to spread the ball around. Owens would definitely not be in favor of that. Also, Parcells is a guy who didn't want TO in the first place. It was all Jerry Jones' doing. Jones is more in favor of creating publicity than winning. Ross, the new Dolphins owner, has mentioned that he wants to bring electricity to the Miami franchise. Who knows, maybe he likes to run things like Jerry Jones. I think Ross has kept the personel decisions to Bill Parcells, so I would think Bill has the say whether or not Owens will come to Miami or not. In other words, don't count on it.

Miami Dolphins Sign C Jake Grove.
The Miami Dolphins just signed Jake Grove, who was a center from the Oakland Raiders. Well, at least there will be another Jake on the line. I think Grove will bring a veteran presence that will help the offensive line the Dolphins. He has started most of the games for Oakland. I am happy with the signing. He’s a former 2nd rounder and Grove will add depth to Miami’s line. According to the Sun Sentinel, “The Dolphins will likely have Satele continue to work at center, but, late last season, the coaches experimented with the two-year starter at guard, a position he played in college. His 32 consecutive starts could help him push Donald Thomas for the starting right guard spot.” “The Dolphins identified Grove as a player with the physicality needed to compete against division foes such as the New York Jets' Kris Jenkins, New England's Vince Wilfork and Buffalo's Marcus Stroud, three of the most physically imposing defensive tackles in the NFL.” This will be good if Grove can match up the AFC East’s big tackles. Satele was getting moved around pretty easily when facing big tackles.
Miami Dolphins DBs Gone
Miami’s defensive backs are gone. Both Andre Goodman and free safety Renaldo Hill both signed with the Denver Broncos. “Free safety Renaldo Hill signed a four-year, $10 million deal with the Broncos on Friday, and cornerback Andre' Goodman confirmed he signed a five-year contract with the Broncos that could be worth as much as $25 million on Sunday night.” I think they will be missed as this leaves a big hole for the Dolphin’s defense. Goodman and Hill were both starters, and Goodman did contribute to key interceptions throughout the 2008 season. Hill can easily be replaced as Gibril Wilson was signed. I think Wilson is an upgrade. Jason Allen remains as the starter for now in place of Andre Goodman. I am still a fan of Allen and hope he comes around. Maybe a year under Sparano and Pasqueloni, he has learned to take the reigns of the cornerback position.
