The Miami Dolphins made the surprising move of going cornerback with their first 2023 draft pick, taking South Carolina cornerback Cam Smith in the second round, pick No. 51, Friday night. Smith (6-foot-1, 180 pounds) had six interceptions in his four-year career with the Gamecocks, leaving for the draft as a redshirt junior. Defensive coordinator Vic Fangio gets a cornerback that could fit the zone-heavy coverages he’s looking to incorporate on the back end of Miami’s defense. Selecting a cornerback was surprising given the Dolphins’ needs at tight end and on the offensive line. Mammoth 6-foot-7 Georgia tight end Darnell Washington, a fan favorite, was available at Miami’s selection, but the Dolphins bypassed him.
