How Dolphins GM Chris Grier has fared drafting cornerbacks since he took over in 2016
Briefly

The Miami Dolphins are looking to strengthen their cornerback lineup after releasing Kendall Fuller. Despite signing nickel corner Kader Kohou, they require two outside cornerbacks heading into the draft. General manager Chris Grier acknowledged a poor track record in drafting cornerbacks since taking over in 2016. He believes Cam Smith, drafted in 2023, is crucial for the team's success moving forward, emphasizing the importance of his health and performance. Historical context shows the team's reliance on undrafted players for cornerback success rather than their drafted picks.
Grier acknowledged his struggle drafting cornerbacks since 2016, stating, "Cam Smith needs to come through... He has shown some flashes, but this is a very big year."
Grier reflected on past drafts, noting, "Would I say I'm perfect? No, I'm not. But working with our scouts and finding fits for players is important."
