Dolphins owner Stephen Ross said third-rounder Leonte Carroo was the second-ranked receiver on their draft board.
Despite having three quality starters at receiver, the Dolphins traded three picks including third- and fourth-rounders next year to move up for Carroo in the third round. The price tag speaks to how highly Miami valued the Rutgers product, and it makes it likely he is given a fair shot to unseat Kenny Stills as the No. 3 receiver. With good speed and elite ball skills, Carroo could end up being one of the steals of the draft.

Dolphins owner Stephen Ross said third-rounder Leonte Carroo was the second-ranked receiver on their draft board......

and it makes it likely he is given a fair shot to unseat Kenny Stills as the No. 3 receiver.

Rotoworld's Josh Norris lists Rutgers WR Leonte Carroo (ankle) as the No. 58 overall prospect in the NFL Draft.
"Makes difficult catches on a consistent basis," Norris wrote. "Defenses knew he was the only receiving threat on the team, yet Carroo still produced at a very high level. Knows how to create slivers of separation at the catch point. Has played both outside and in the slot." Carroo, still trying to kick a nagging ankle injury that forced him out of the Senior Bowl and apparently hampered him at the Combine, says he'll run routes for NFL teams at his pro day on March 31.

Pro Football Focus grades Rutgers WR Leonte Carroo as a first-rounder.
It's a stunningly optimistic projection. PFF is as high on Sterling Shepard as anybody -- calling him a first-round talent -- but even Shepard is behind Carroo in the site's receiver rankings, as are both Michael Thomas', Tyler Boyd, Will Fuller, Braxton Miller and a host of others. "When breaking down Carroo’s tape, it at times felt like you were watching two completely different players," Gordon McGuiness wrote. "When fully healthy he was up there with the best receivers in this class, but the drop-off when he was coming back from injury was severe. Despite that, he still managed to force seven missed tackles on 39 receptions in 2015, and had an impressive one-handed grab in his final game of the year against Maryland to add some wow factor." For the record, PFF ranks Carroo as the No. 4 receiver behind usual suspects Corey Coleman, Josh Doctson and Laquon Treadwell.

If true, I think you have to question their draft board. Of course its all guess work anyway and if he makes the team and plays its a win. NO got rid of Stills for a reason.

Not crazy about the price, but hopefully he will provide some quality plays.

I love that they went BPA over need and got their guy even though they already had a crowded receiving core. Looking forward to seeing what he can do.

Parker is the 1 for sure... Landry is the slot...
Then we had Matthews, Stills, and Jennings.... 2 of them are gone...

He's a lot like Rishard Matthews too.

Ok make up your mind, is he good or is he like Matthews

LOL. Not a Matthews fan?

Nothing against him, he was a good player, his only gripe was he wanted more playing time. Maybe under utilized/developed by a clown coaching staff like many others.

I wasnt losing any sleep when he went to FA tho, felt we ccould find his replacement rather easily, and it appears we may have upgraded the position..

If the O-line actually blocks, then Tannehill should deliver big. If he doesn't, then I think the team has an escape planned in his contract. I hope he gets it done though, because QB's are so hard to find.

Deliver big? What expectation is that gonna be?

Nothing less than 8000 yards, 85 TDs and 3 INTs will be accepted.

Ya, that's the idea I get from the "prove it contract" guys

We will be in the superbowl if he plays the same, he is top 10 in passing yards and that is all there is to it...

Deliver big? What expectation is that gonna be?

What if he stays the same...30 tds 14 int 4000 yds? Because that's what he has been and got paid.....And will get paid by another team to do that..
Are you gonna cut him if he stays the same?
Or is the escape if he gets worse?

Your argument of of "prove it" contract just morphed to team goals....Just so you know!
