3 Alabama Football players the Miami Dolphins should consider drafting
1. Najee Harris, RB
Najee Harris is the future of the NFL at running back. He adds value that only a few players can with his dynamic style of play. He has strength, agility and amazing receiving skills. This will make him available on every down, and this adds even more value.
Miami needs someone like this in the backfield. They have a decent group of running backs, but there is so much room for improvement. Without a significant improvement in the offensive line, they won’t have a major impact in key games.
Improving the running game would help with Tua’s progression, and that’s where Najee Harris comes in. Najee is excellent in pass protection, and he always falls forward. This will take the weight off of Tua’s shoulders to do it all, and that is how he will succeed.
Harris’s impact as a receiver matters as well. It will add players to the box, and that will open up the deep passing game.
Alabama football had a lot of success with Najee Harris and Tua Tagovailoa in the backfield. They were close friends in college, and they would do great together in the NFL.
With their second pick in the first round, the Dolphins should seriously consider drafting Najee Harris. He likely won’t be available in the second round.
