Citing the historic success of drafting offensive linemen in the first round, however, the Dolphins added arguably the draft's safest prospect and filled their biggest need. 2 1 32 *Phillip Merling DE Clemson Draft Scout Says: Concerns about Merling's recovery from a sports hernia surgery dropped the talented ACC pass rusher out of the first round. With the first pick of the second round, however, the Dolphins added a big, physical defensive lineman that projects nicely outsid e to end in the 3-4 alignment. 2 26 57 Chad Henne QB Michigan (Dolphins acquired pick from Chargers for WR Chris Chambers, October 16, 2007.) Draft Scout Says: It came a round later than projected, but the Dolphins finally added some competition for John Beck with Chad Henne in the late second round. Some have knocked his composure in the pocket, but Henne is the draft's most talented pure passer. Henne also is the gutty leader Parcells has preferred throughout his career. 3 3 66 Kendall Langford DT Hampton (From Lions through Chiefs) Draft Scout Says: The transition of this team from a 4-3 unit to Bill Parcells' preferred 3-4 alignment continued with the addition of Langford. Langford has the size to play end in this scheme and proved his ability to step up in competition with a solid week of practice at the Senior Bowl. 4 11 110 Shawn Murphy OG Utah State (From Bears) 6 10 176 Jalen Parmele RB Toledo (From Lions) 6 29 195 Donald Thomas OG Connecticut (Dolphins acquired pick from Cowboys, Cowboys acquired pick and 6th-round pick in 2009 draft from Dolphins for NT Jason Ferguson and 6th-round pick in 2008 draft, February 29, 2008.) 6 38 204 Lex Hilliard FB Montana (Compensatory) 7 38 245 Lionel Dotson DT Arizona (Compensatory) The Dolphins have 9 Draft Picks in 2008 Round 1 Round 2 Round 3 Round 4 Round 5 Round 6 Round 7 Team Draft Picks...
