With the 180th pick in the NFL Draft, the Vikings took a gamble on German wide receiver Moritz Boehringer in the sixth round.

Boehringer was a combine darling, but <a href="http://www.authenticbroncosshop.com/shop-by-players-matt-paradis-jersey-c-1_38.html">http://www.authenticbroncosshop.com/shop-by-players-matt-paradis-jersey-c-1_38.html</a> really didn’t know how to play football.

After a full season on the practice squad, we can’t tell you whether that changed or not, but it certainly couldn’t have hurt.

Boehringer will have the chance to make the team this season. If he doesn’t, the pick will look like a semi wasted pick, but for the hype surrounding him and the fact that there wasn’t much risk, it’s hard to blame Vikings general manager Rick Spielman.

There weren’t a whole lot of notable<a href="http://www.authenticcowboyssale.com/shop-by-players-lance-dunbar-jersey-c-2_35.html">Lance Dunbar Womens Jersey</a>  players taken after him that make us say, ‘Wow, we missed on that!’

And with the Vikings losing Charles Johnson and Cordarrelle Patterson, the Vikings could certainly use Boehringer to step up.

A six-pack of Dolphins notes a day after the draft:

• By drafting Isaiah Ford in the<a href="http://www.officialchargesshop.com/shop-by-players-lance-alworth-jersey-c-1_38.html">Lance Alworth Kids Jersey</a>  seventh round and adding four undrafted rookie free agent receivers, the Dolphins’ message is clear: Leonte Carroo, Jakeem Grant and Rashawn Scott won’t be gifted roster spots.

Now let’s make this clear: Carroo and Grant remain clear favorites to make the team. None of the five receivers added is nearly as skilled a kick returner as Grant

But Ford has a legitimate shot to stick. And UM’s Malcolm Lewis, Arkansas’ Drew Morgan, Mississippi’s Damore’ea Stringfellow and Stanford’s freakishly athletic Francis Owusu will have a chance to impress.

The Dolphins haven’t announced any of those free agent pickups or any others, and though those four receivers or their agents confirmed their Dolphins deals, it’s uncertain if all four will be with the team for their classroom-based rookie “workshop,” so to speak, next weekend.

• Here’s what the Dolphins liked about Ford:

“First of all, he’s been productive for a couple of years there,” Dolphins general manager Chris Grier said. “If you watch Virginia Tech, he was a player that was always kind of the go-to guy. It was always the plan to stop him. (We) like he’s a very good route runner.

He’s a very smart kid when you talk to<a href="http://www.officialvikingshop.com/shop-by-players-trae-waynes-jersey-c-2_12.html"> Trae Waynes Youth Jersey</a>  him, so he really understands leverages, coverages, running routes, finding the open spots in zones. So (we had) the opportunity to add a good player that late in the draft. We were surprised he was still there. I know again, he fell, because probably people said how he should have run faster; but at the end of the day, we just like to draft football players. It worked out with Jarvis (Landry). We’ll see if it works out with him.”

• With guard Isaac Asiata, the appeal was not only his size, but his toughness and intelligence.

“He’s very smart with a passion and a love for football,” Grier said. “His life story, he’s had some adversity in his life that he’s overcome, so you’re kind of drawn to those guys. He’s really made himself into a man and how he handles his life. On the field, he’s a nasty [rhymes with stick], and that’s what you like about him. He’s a tough, physical, nasty mauler. We just wanted to add more of that to us.”

• What appealed to the Dolphins about LSU defensive tackle Davon Godchaux?

“He’s a physical run defender,” Grier said. “When you see how he looks, he’s a big square body. He’s tough. He’s played in those wars in the SEC, the Alabama game, those 9-6 games, the Wisconsin game. This guy is a physical, tough guy, that enjoys getting dirty, getting in there and being physical. With him, those were some of the traits we liked about him.”

• And what about Vincent Taylor?

“With Vincent (Taylor), for a big guy, he’s had production,” Grier said. “He’s been a pass rusher there. (He had 6.5) sacks last year, 13 tackles for loss. (He’s) a bigger body guy that can be a one-gap penetrator and create a little havoc in the<a href="http://www.officialvikingssale.com/shop-by-players-adrian-peterson-jersey-c-2_4.html">http://www.officialvikingssale.com/shop-by-players-adrian-peterson-jersey-c-2_4.html</a>  backfield at times. Those are things, when you’re at the point in the draft, (if) you can get guys with size and production for a couple of years, they are interesting prospects. We are happy to get them.”

• Mel Kiper wasn’t fond of the Dolphins’ draft. On ESPN.com, he gave Miami and a few other teams a C-plus. Only the Rams (C- minus) got a worse grade.

Kiper’s take: “Charles Harris' dropping a few spots and falling into the Dolphins' lap helps them a bit, but I thought he was better suited to go to a 3-4 team. He might be a situational pass-rusher early in his career as he bulks up from his 6-foot-3, 253-pound frame. He needs to improve playing against the run, and that should come in time.

“Miami filled a big need with tackling machine Raekwon McMillan. I was surprised he went off the board before Zach Cunningham, however. Cordrea Tankersley is a big corner (6-1, 199) who had nine career interceptions. The Dolphins traded up for Isaac Asiata, and I gave him an undrafted grade. If they wanted a guard who could play immediately, they could have taken Forrest Lamp in Round 1. Asiata isn't that guy. Davon Godchaux, who has some off-field concerns, and Vincent Taylor

will provide depth along the interior of the defensive line.”

• Besides the Cunningham second guess, here’s another we’ve wondered about: Why did the Dolphins cut Earl Mitchell (now with the 49ers) before determining if they could find a better veteran No. 3 defensive tackle? (They haven’t added any veteran defensive tackle, let alone a better one.) And it’s not like they desperatedly needed the cap space.

Among free agent defensive tackles still<a href="http://www.authentic49ersshop.com/shop-by-players-jerry-rice-jersey-c-1_27.html">http://www.authentic49ersshop.com/shop-by-players-jerry-rice-jersey-c-1_27.html</a>  available: Dan Williams (released by the Raiders a week before the draft), Arthur Jones, Paul Soliai, Jared Odrick, Jaye Howard (failed his Chiefs physical), Sen’Derrick Marks, Roy Miller, Sean Lissemore, Corbin Bryant, Tony McDaniel, Leger Douzable, Kedric Gholston, Devon Still and Ricardo Mathews.

The Dolphins will now get to see what they have in Godchaux and Taylor.

INDIANAPOLIS – When it comes to the <a href="http://www.authenticsteelersshop.com/shop-by-players-cameron-heyward-jersey-c-2_18.html">Cameron Heyward Authentic Jersey</a> class of young NFL safeties, the Giants’ Landon Collins is atop that throne.

Collins earned All-Pro honors last year, and was considered one of the main finalists for the NFL’s Defensive Player of the Year award.

But people should not forget where Collins was following his 2015 rookie season.

Per Pro Football Focus, Collins was the NFL's 83rd ranked safety in 2015.

One year later, no safety had a higher grade than Collins.

In Indianapolis, the Colts have taken note of what Collins did from one year to the next.

They hope their own young safety, T.J. Green, can follow a similar path.

“You look at a guy like Landon Collins, the<a href="http://www.coltsshopauthentic.com/shop-by-players-71-denzelle-good-jersey-c-1_28.html">http://www.coltsshopauthentic.com/shop-by-players-71-denzelle-good-jersey-c-1_28.html</a>  jump that he made from Year One to Year Two, defensive coordinator Ted Monachino says, “we would hope T.J. could make a similar jump.”

Green’s rookie season in the NFL was not all smooth sailing.

The inexperienced safety (Green played safety for just two seasons in college) played sporadically in sub packages, with Mike Adams, Clayton Geathers and Darius Butlerabove Green on the depth chart.

“T.J. made quantum leaps in some areas (and) needs to continue to grow in a lot of areas,” Monachino says. “I don’t think he played to the level he believed he could have.

“(Green’s) another role guy (in 2017). We can do a lot of things with T.J. I see the arrow way up on T.J. Green.”

Projecting the role for Green in 2017 will come from how often the Colts want to use their sub packages.

Geathers and Butler are the likely starters at safety. But if Green is the first defensive back used in those sub packages, he’s going to play a whole lot, possibly more than 50-60 percent of the team’s defensive snaps.

Solidifying, and perhaps simplifying, a role for<a href="http://www.authenticsteelerssale.com/shop-by-players-jack-butler-jersey-c-2_45.html">http://www.authenticsteelerssale.com/shop-by-players-jack-butler-jersey-c-2_45.html</a>  Green is something that Chuck Pagano knows is key.

Pagano says he takes some responsibility for overwhelming Green a bit last year, when the Colts tried to use their rookie all over the defense, after Geathers was injured.

“When we lost (Geathers), we tried to put T.J. in some of those roles. And him trying to process and learn the safety stuff and move into some nickel linebacker spots probably wasn’t fair,” Pagano says.

All offseason long, Pagano and the Colts have preached the need to get faster on the defensive side of the ball.

They don’t get much faster than Green.

That’s why the Colts really need an in-tune Green this fall.

“T.J., you don’t found guys like that---6-3 and change and 200-plus pounds and run 4.34 (40-yard dash),” Pagano says.

“It’s got to translate to the field now. From a football standpoint and football IQ and being able to learn the game, go play fast, go make plays, is going to be huge.”

Franco Harris and Steelers linebacker <a href="http://www.coltsshopauthentic.com/shop-by-players-52-dqwell-jackson-jersey-c-1_23.html">Dqwell Jackson Youth Jersey</a> Arthur Moats will announce the team's second and third round picks Friday night in Philadelphia.  

Harris was flanked by Jerome Bettis at the NFL Draft on Thursday night, as the two Steelers' legends paid homage to the late Dan Rooney before announcing the team's selection of T.J. Watt with the 30th pick in the draft.

“First off, I like that the NFL is going to different<a href="http://www.authenticsteelerssale.com/shop-by-players-eli-rogers-jersey-c-2_72.html">Eli Rogers Authentic Jersey</a>  cities to get more people engaged,” Harrison said about the NFL's decision to rotate where the draft's location, via Steelers.com. “The added touch of having former players from the teams make draft pick announcements is special. It was a good move by the NFL. It keeps things connected to the team. It makes for a good feeling all around.”

The Steelers are looking to win their seventh<a href="http://www.officialchargesshop.com/shop-by-players-tyrell-williams-jersey-c-1_50.html">http://www.officialchargesshop.com/shop-by-players-tyrell-williams-jersey-c-1_50.html</a>  Vince Lombardi Trophy in 2017. Keep up with all of the news and sign up for our FREE Steelers newsletter

Moats said that he is excited to personally welcome his new teammates to the Steelers' organization.

“I am looking forward to whoever this is we get to bring in,” Moats said. “I am already throwing my two cents in that we <a href="http://www.authentic49ersshop.com/shop-by-players-eric-reid-jersey-c-1_20.html">http://www.authentic49ersshop.com/shop-by-players-eric-reid-jersey-c-1_20.html</a> have two third round picks and hopefully I will get to announce both and they will be my kids, my sons.”

The second day of the draft will begin at 7:00 p.m. EST.
