Hello, Miami Dolphins fans. How are you today? And thank you for listening to the Dolphins Talk.com podcast on this Sunday morning, very early. March 22nd. I'm your host, Michael Leva, joined by our friend Justin Mello from NFL Draft on ASI as we're going to break down the tight end and offensive line positions. Justin, how are you doing this morning?

1:10.8

Doing well, doing well. Appreciate you for having me on once again, Mike. Really good classes here, I think. This offensive line and tight end class. I think, you know, certainly the Dolphins are going to have a lot of interest in the first, right, in the O line group. I'm certain of that. And some tight ends, you know, maybe they'll grab a gem later on. So we've got a lot of good prospects to talk about today. Yeah. And now with Miami having a second first round pick since we last spoke and a fourth pick in round three since we last spoke, they have more options to fill more of their many, many needs. But before we get to that real quick, shout up to the sponsor of today's show Cainsware.com. Everyone go to canesware.com for the best and most affordable Miami Dolphins apparel on the internet. Also, they got stuff for the Miami Hurricanes of Florida Panthers, the heat, the Marlins and all the teams in South Florida.

1:34.5

We will read it before the end of the show.

1:36.4

Tight end.

1:37.9

Let's start with the big name there.

1:42.2

Kenyon Sadiq, Oregon, very good player.

1:49.1

Two questions. How high do you think he could go in round one and compare him to Tyler Warren last year who I think when 13 or 14 I think one pick after Miami so I think

1:54.7

was 14 last year how does he compare to Tyler warn last year and what do you think his ceiling

2:00.6

isn't around one I think he's the same caliber of prospect to Tyler Warren last year, and what do you think his ceiling is in round one?

2:02.2

I think he's the same caliber of prospect that Tyler Warren was.

2:07.8

I love the player.

2:09.4

I think he's arguably, I don't even know it's arguably,

2:13.3

a top 15 overall prospect in this class.

2:16.8

Now, where I would say he differs from Tyler Warren,

2:21.0

um,

2:22.1

I,

2:22.5

I think Warren's probably a bit better of a pass catcher,

2:26.5

like impact in the passing game.

2:28.4

But Sadiq's ability to do everything.

2:31.1

Like he's a three down tight end in terms of in line. He's really competitive blocker as well. Like I think he's a total freak, the total package at tight end. I mean, the combine numbers, when I say freak, they were out of this world. It was like 439, I think it was. And then 43 vert or something. And then he got overshadowed by Eli Stowers a couple of seconds later, which was

2:52.9

unfortunate for him.
