The Miami Dolphins are a bit of a mystery team right now.
We aren’t quite sure what to expect on either side of the ball as this regime gets rolling — you never really know until you get proof of concept for these sorts of things. Head coach Jeff Hafley surely has his fair share of plans for his team and the personnel needed to execute those plans. Us, outside the building? We’ll have to wait to figure it out. But there are some trends starting to develop. And one such trend appears to be present yet again with one of the team’s reported prospect interviews.
Cal cornerback Hezekiah Masses continues trend at position for the Dolphins
Many of the Dolphins’ new options at cornerback at tall. And, boy, do they have a lot of options to choose from right now. They also boast a certain element of length in their physical profile. California cornerback Hezekiah Masses, who is scheduled for a pre-draft visit with the Dolphins per Ryan Folwer, has both.
He’s a 6-f00t-1 (verified) corner with 31.13″ arms. Masses is a disruptive player who is effective despite his lean frame at playing physical in the contact window as a press player in coverage. That tracks with many of Miami’s other additions. New additions such as Alex Austin and Darrell Baker, plus returning players such as JuJu Brents, Storm Duck, and Ethan Bonner all clock in over 6 feet tall and offer length.
It would seem as though the Dolphins have a type in this regard. And Masses, who is projected as a mid-round target in this year’s NFL Draft, would fit right at home if the Dolphins were the team to give him the call next month.
