13. Miami Dolphins: Clelin Ferrell, EDGE, Clemson

Another team with a new coach this offseason is the Miami Dolphins. After a couple of seasons of watching Adam Gase get rid of ‘locker room cancers’, the Dolphins realized he was becoming a divisive force — and the team wasn’t getting the results they wanted. So Gase was let go and then went on to have one of the epically worst press conferences ever for the New York Jets.

Miami will face him twice a year now since Gase stayed in the division, and they too went for a coach in the AFC East by deciding on Brian Flores of the New England Patriots. The former linebackers coach is an up and coming young defensive coach who will likely try and stock up on his side of the ball. They do this with Clelin Ferrell, the Clemson sack artist who went back for his senior season and got himself a title — and a Big Mac from the president.

The Dolphins haven’t received the production from 2017 first round pick Charles Harris they anticipated and Cameron Wake is nearing the end of the line. Ferrell can end up being the one to take Wake’s spot as their sack leader. And Flores will be thrilled if he can make some splash plays against his former team — as well as against the man he’s replacing.
