The Miami Dolphins signed the biggest free agent prize this offseason when they snagged star defensive lineman Ndamukong Suh, who is widely considered to be the best defensive lineman in the league not named J.J. Watt. Suh was the anchor of a very good Detroit defense last season, and the Dolphins are hoping that he will do a lot to improve their team.

But now that free agency is mostly over and done with, teams are focusing intently on the upcoming NFL Draft, which is just two weeks away. Making the right picks can set a franchise up for years and vault them into contention. Having addressed a huge defensive need in free agency, the Dolphins may be looking at the other side of the ball in the draft.
Heard again today that Dolphins doing a LOT of research, interviews on Todd Gurley & people close to him. They are unquestionably intrigued

The Dolphins had an okay rushing attack last season, but injuries slowed the team down as the year went on, and they may want to try and upgrade the position through the draft. Gurley saw his season end prematurely because of a torn ACL, but many still think he could be the best running back prospect since Adrian Peterson (which worked out pretty well).

The Dolphins are not the only team thought to be eying Gurley. The Dallas Cowboys, along with a few other teams picking late in the first round, have interviewed Gurley. The Dolphins do draft ahead of the other teams that have shown interest in the Georgia product, so it will be interesting to see if Miami's interest could entice one of the other teams to trade up.
