We're back for the 19th pick of the 2014 Niners Nation Community Mock Draft. You can see previous picks below in the draft table. You can also follow the mock draft board through this story stream.
With the 19th pick of the 2014 NFL Draft, albert.55 and the Miami Dolphins select Zack Martin, OT, Notre Dame. He also considered wide receiver Odell Beckham, Jr. and cornerback Darqueze Dennard. Here are his thoughts on the pick:
The biggest needs for the Dolphins are the O-line(OT & OG), RB, ILB, WR and CB in that order, however, some will argue different. What everyone seems to agree with though is that O-line is the biggest need. With that the best player available at the 19th pick is Zack Martin. I'd probably have him as the best tackle in the draft technique wise, however, the reason he is not picked is because he doesn't have elite athleticism. Now that doesn't mean his athleticism is anything to sneeze at because he has above average strength and speed coming off the ball. Add that to his technique and he'll lay out defensive players if they aren't careful.
I would rather have the dolphins trade back and get more draft picks so that they could fill more positions at need such as getting a late first and a late second or possibly 2 third round picks.
Trevor Woods: Another offensive lineman named Martin to the Dolphins? I don't know if they'd want that headline! It does fill a tremendous need, after losing Jonathan Martin in a trade to the 49ers, and beloved Richie Incognito to a psychiatric ward.
Nick Chiamardas: Virtually every mock draft out there has Miami taking Martin. So much so that Miami taking Martin probably has zero chance of happening despite the appearance of a match made in heaven. Other prospects to consider here would be G Xavier Su'o-Filo, and safeties Cavin Pryor and Jimmie Ward.
