The Miami Dolphins put to bed all the speculation of who they would take with the No. 1 pick in this years draft Tuesday. The Dolphins signed Offensive Tackle Jake Long, out of Michigan to a 5 year deal worth 57.75 million dollars, 30 million guaranteed.
Jake Long hasn't even played a single down in the NFL, yet has already become the highest paid tackle in the league.
This pick doesn't come as a shock however as Jake Long was no question, the safest pick in this year's draft. He's 6-foot-7, 315 pounds, and has quite the mean streak.
Long is expected to be the cornerstone in Bill Parcells rebuilding process in Miami, and is a "Parcells" player. Football is won in the trenches and Miami has someone who can do just that in Jake Long.
