repair labrum after playing through it for much of 2018."Miami Dolphins safety Reshad Jones is recovering after a successful surgery to his right shoulder. Jones played through a tear in his labrum throughout the 2018 season and appears to be doing well following the procedure. Jones posted a picture on Instagram after the surgery.A 2010 fifth-round draft choice by the Dolphins DeVante Parker Jersey , Jones has developed into one of the elite safeties in the league. He specializes as a strong safety, especially adept at playing in the box in run support, but has the skill set to be utilized as a free safety as well. Jones, who turns 31 next month, appeared in 14 games for the Dolphins this season, recording 72 tackles with three interceptions including one returned for a touchown and nine passes defensed.Jones has two career Pro Bowl appearances. He is expected to be ready for training camp in July. The veteran was involved in an odd situation with the team this year. In November, as the team played the New York Jets, Jones pulled himself out of the game, standing on the sideline throughout most of the contest. Then head coach Adam Gase seemed to defuse the situation during the following week Kenyan Drake Jersey , saying there was a communications issue that needed to be solved and that everyone was back on the same page. The Dolphins had rotated Jones out of the lineup multiple times early in the game as rookie Minkah Fitzpatrick and veteran T.J. McDonald also saw playing time in the back of the Dolphins’ defense.Jones is signed with Miami through the 2021 season, and will have a $17.2 million salary cap number in 2019.2019 NFL Draft Preview: Tight Ends The Miami Dolphins came into the 2018 NFL Draft with a clear need at Tight End.They obviously made that a priority by drafting not one, but two tight ends; Mike Gesicki and Durham Smythe.I personally liked both picks; I believe both have a great chance at being really good pros.The Dolphins also have the likes of Maquise Gray, AJ Derby and Gavin Escobar to complete their TE corp.I am excited to see the 2 rookies play this season, and given the depth at this group I’d say TE isn’t going to be a big priority for the Dolphins in this year’s draft.However, for the sake of my college preview, let’s take a quick look at this year’s potential draft class.Noah Fant, Iowa (Jr)Fant is a fun player to watch.He’s a big guy who plays with a competitive spirit and it shows.He’s got the best hands out of all the TE’s in this class in my opinion.He makes quick cuts and knows how to go up and get the ball.He’s a skilled receiver, no doubt about that.His blocking is average; he’s got the tools to be a respectable blocker Xavien Howard Jersey , he just needs to improve.I think he can improve on dealing with press coverage better as well, but right now he’s my favorite TE in this class.Photo by Matthew Holst/Getty ImagesKaden Smith, Stanford (Jr)Kaden Smith might as well be in the WR class because that’s all I saw him do.He’s definitely not overly fast but he’s got quicks and runs smooth routes.His best trait though is winning the jump ball.He’s tough when fighting the grab the pass and he rarely loses.He, like Fant, also has very sure hands.Like I said, I don’t have a good hold (no pun intended) on his blocking skills and he’s not the best athlete, but Smith is certainly one of the top TE’s in this class.Kirby Lee-USA TODAY SportsCaleb Wilson, UCLA (Jr)Wilson was limited last season due to a foot injury, but looked very good prior to that.He’s got all the tools you would look for in a TE and this year has a chance to prove that he belongs at the top of this group.Sergio Estrada-USA TODAY SportsTommy Sweeney Laremy Tunsil Jersey , Boston College (Sr)Sweeney is completely different than the previous TE’s I have covered on this list.He’s the best blocking TE I have scouted so far in the early stages of this draft class.He’s stout, great hand use, and can move opponents.Unfortunately, he leaves much to be desired in terms of athleticism and receiving threat.I am not trying to be mean, he’s just not a big threat in the passing game.He can catch the ball, he’s just slow and doesn’t have the route running and quickness you need to be a big time TE.He’s a great blocker though, that could be a red zone/short yardage type guy and that will intrigue teams.Vincent Carchietta-USA TODAY Sports Other Notable TE Prospects:Tyler Petite, USC (Sr)C.J.
