• However, Moore only expects Jack and Bosa to be available at the Cowboys’ No. 4 overall pick.

Dolphins

• Armando Salguero believes the Dolphins should select Ohio State RB Ezekiel Elliott at No. 14 overall, however, Salguero does not think he will be available to Miami at the time of their pick.
• Salguero reports the Dolphins plan to draft a linebacker by the third round or later, while LSU’s  Deion Jones is a player that Miami has interest in.
• According to Salguero, the Dolphins “really like” Houston CB William Jackson III and have extensively studied Ohio State CB Eli Apple as first-round picks.
• Salguero also says the Dolphins’ scouts like Miami’s Artie Burns and Mississippi State’s Tavese Calhoun as mid-round cornerback prospects.
• Interesting enough, Salguero hears the Dolphins have interest in trading down in the first round to acquire Apple and that they like Burns as a late second- to third-round pick.
• As for the potential of drafting a wide receiver, Salguero says the Dolphins are looking to sign two to their roster.
• Miami has already completed private workouts with Texas Tech WR Jakeem Grant and Temple WR Robby Anderson, with Western Michigan WR Daniel Braverman, Miami WR Herb Waters and Miami WR Rashawn Scott having performed at the team’s local prospect day.
