Going into the draft Robert Quinn Jersey , the will try to change that.If the Arizona Cardinals’ castoff quarterback shows the Dolphins this year that he can be a franchise QB, they’ll be ahead of schedule in their rebuilding project under first-year coach Brian Flores.And if Rosen is a bust for the second time in as many NFL seasons, the Dolphins will likely have a lousy 2019 record, which means they’ll be well-positioned to draft their quarterback of the future a year from now.The Dolphins traded a 2019 second-round draft pick and a 2020 fifth-round selection to Arizona for Rosen, a modest investment considering the potential payoff. Rosen was the No. 10 overall pick last year and had a rough rookie season for a team that went 3-13.He’ll likely beat out veteran newcomer Ryan Fitzpatrick for the Dolphins’ starting job this year, in part because they need to find out whether he’s a keeper.Here are things to know about other moves by the Dolphins during the draft:WHO THEY GOTThe Dolphins landed two players likely to start as rookies — Clemson defensive tackle Christian Wilkins in the first round, and versatile Wisconsin offensive lineman Michael Deiter in the third round. Their third-day picks were Wisconsin linebacker Andrew Van Ginkel in the fifth round, Ohio State right tackle Isaiah Prince in the sixth round, and Auburn fullback Chandler Cox and Washington running back Myles Gaskin in the seventh round.“We’ve made some progress,” general manager Chris Grier said. “We feel better T.J. McDonald Jersey , but there’s still work to do. We’re not where we want to be, but we’re happy where we are.”SURPRISE MOVEThe Dolphins weren’t expected to use a high pick on a quarterback, because the crop of prospects in 2020 is more promising.“During his rookie season, obviously there were some ups, there were some downs,” Flores said. “That’s the case for all rookies. But this guy has a lot of arm talent.”HOW THEY DIDThe Dolphins began the draft in the market for an edge rusher, and they’re still shopping for one. There’s a significant need at the position because the Dolphins parted with three veteran defensive ends this offseason, including five-time Pro Bowl end Cameron Wake, while adding no marquee free agents.They’re also in the market for help at right tackle and cornerback, and depth is thin at most positions.WHAT’S NEXT?The Dolphins may plug some holes in post-draft free agency Jerome Baker Jersey , but some long-term solutions will have to wait until 2020. That’s when Grier and Flores are expected to make a big splash, with a favorable salary cap situation next year and 10 picks in the draft, not including two possible compensatory choices.They could have seven picks in the first four rounds.“The plan was to get as many picks as we could going forward, to build this thing right,” Grier said. “We’ll see where it goes.” Michael Deiter is the first former Wisconsin Badgers player off the board in the 2019 NFL draft.More Badgers coverageTop Tweets: Former Badger TJ Watt has impressive four-year transformationTop Tweets: Former Badgers QB Wilson plans to play for … a long timeBadgers RB Taylor named to preseason all-Big Ten teamEx-Badgers TE Traylor training, waiting for next NFL opportunityEx-Badgers star Hayes having fun during latest NBA auditionThe Miami Dolphins selected Deiter with the 15th pick of the third round – 78th overall.Deiter was a consistent presence on the Badgers’ offensive line, starting a school-record 54 games from 2015-18. He began his collegiate career at left guard and center from 2015-16, switched to left tackle in 2017 and slid back inside to left guard last season.All in all, Deiter started 24 games at left guard, 16 at center and 14 at left tackle. He was named to the All-Big Ten first team in 2018. Deiter contributed as a key piece to the offensive line that helped running back Jonathan Taylor rush for 4 Andrew Van Ginkel Miami Dolphins Jerseys ,171 yards from 2017-18.It’s been a busy night for the Dolphins, who traded a second-round pick and a fifth-rounder Friday to bring in quarterback Josh Rosen, who was the No. 10 selection of the 2018 draft.Deiter will be tasked with blocking for the young quarterback, as well as Miami’s 1-2 punch in the backfield of Kenyan Drake and Kalen Ballage.Fellow former Badgers offensive linemen David Edwards and Beau Benzschawel are expected to be picked in Day 2 or Day 3 of the draft. If they are all selected, they’ll become the first trio of Badgers offensive linemen to be drafted in the same year since Gabe Carimi, John Moffitt and Bill Nagy in 2011.
