Jon-Eric Sullivan stood at a microphone in the Miami Dolphins offices after the first round of the NFL Draft concluded. There were a lot of questions everyone wanted answers to. A new Dolphins era was underway.<\/p>\n

The Dolphins GM made his first pick after moving down from pick 11 to pick 12,\u00a0where they took Alabama’s massive offensive tackle, Kadyn Proctor.<\/p>\n

Sullivan told the media that it was always Proctor they coveted. More than Caleb Downs and Reuben Bain, Jr., Proctor, Sullivan said, was\u00a0“a rare talent, there was no one else like him in the draft.”<\/strong><\/em>\u00a0But what if there was? What if the Dolphins had other plans before Proctor was drafted?<\/p>\n

One question leaves doubt the Miami Dolphins were all-in on Kadyn Proctor<\/h2>\n

In New York, the Giants’ first-round pick, Francis Mauigoa, was speaking with the media when a reporter off-camera asked him about how close he was to being drafted by the Dolphins.<\/p>\n

Mauigoa was taken one selection before Miami by the Giants. It’s been widely speculated that in round three, the Giants traded up in front of the Dolphins to take Malachi Fields, which was the reason Miami went with Caleb Douglas.\u00a0Did the Giants dupe the Dolphins twice in one draft?<\/p>\n
