ROUND 1, PICK 5: TUA TAGOVAILOA, QB
The Dolphins selected Tua Tagovailoa, the former Alabama quarterback, with the No. 5 pick of the 2020 NFL Draft on Thursday night. Tagovailoa will likely begin his NFL career as a backup quarterback for the Dolphins, sitting behind savvy veteran Ryan Fitzpatrick, until he’s ready to take the field. There is no need for the Dolphins to rush Tagovailoa back on the field until he’s 100 percent healthy.

ROUND 1, PICK 18: AUSTIN JACKSON, OL
The Dolphins selected offensive lineman Austin Jackson with the No. 18 pick of the 2020 NFL Draft on Thursday night. The Dolphins’ selection of Jackson adds some protection for quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, who the team drafted earlier in the first round. Jackson was the fifth offensive lineman taken in the first round of the draft.

ROUND 1, PICK 30: NOAH IGINOGHENE, CB
The Dolphins selected cornerback Noah Igbinoghene with the No. 30 pick of the 2020 NFL Draft on Thursday night. Miami made the selection after trading back and giving the Green Bay Packers a chance to draft quarterback Jordan Love. The Dolphins got to bolster their secondary with a player like Igbinoghene.
**
ROUND 2, PICK 39: ROBERT HUNT, OL
The Dolphins selected offensive lineman Robert Hunt with the No. 39 pick of the 2020 NFL Draft. Miami is stacking up on o-line after having drafted Austin Jackson in the first round. Hunt played offensive line at Louisiana. He played all 14 games at left tackle as a junior.
