149. Matt Jones, Running Back, Florida

Originally I had the Dolphins picking Karlos Williams from Florida State, however I’m changing that pick to the Dolphins instead deciding to go to Gainesville to find their complementary running back. 

Matt Jones is a chain-mover, which is perfect for anchoring a four-minute offense. He never averaged a lot of yards (getting 4.8 yards per carry for his career), but he’s perfect for grinding out the clock and chewing up the field. 

Jones is also very aggressive in pass-protection and has shown himself to be very good at picking up blitzers. 

There are injury concerns with Jones as he missed most of 2013 with a left knee injury, but seemed to have recovered well in 2014. 

 

150. Kevin White, Cornerback, TCU

Kevin White remains the pick for Miami here, just as I had in my original mock draft. 

His ability to play zone-coverage and stay on the best receivers in the Big 12 makes him an enticing pick for Miami. 

The fact that White plays bigger than his size is what will draw the most attention, especially since he plays well as a boundary corner.
