Is Mike McDaniel of the Miami Dolphins already a top-10 NFL head coach?

Photo by Rich Storry/ One online publication certainly thinks so. Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel is a popular man amongst his peers. Recently, plenty of Dolphins free agents have spoken about how McDaniel’s personality, which shined during the club’s stint on HBO’s Hard Knocks last season, was a major contributing factor in their decision to sign with Miami this offseason.

Did former GM Mike Tannenbaum finally win back Dolphins fans with his recent mock draft?

The Miami Dolphins spent the last two weeks rebuilding the roster in free agency but with under $5 million in available cap space, it’s time to turn our attention to the 2024 NFL Draft. Miami inked Aaron Brewer to a three-year contract to play center on March 17 and yet, former general manager Mike Tannenbaum believes the Dolphins should keep adding at the position. The mock draft featured quarterbacks going with the first four picks, and with six going by the time the...
