The Raiders have just five picks while the Panthers, Commanders, <a href="https://www.bucsnation.com/">Buccaneers</a> and Bears all have six picks. </p> <p id="Bnd23s">ESPN’s Field Yates shared a chart, which was created with the help of <a href="https://twitter.com/PP_Rich_Hill">Rich Hill’</a>s draft pick value table, that highlights Miami’s 63 pick value, the lowest in the NFL. </p> <p id="SGQKPN">The Rams, who have eight picks, have the second-lowest total value at 71. Miami, Los Angeles and Las Vegas are the only teams with a value below 100 while all other teams have at least 202 points of value. </p> <div id="HHHaO6"> <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"> <p lang="en" dir="ltr">Examining the draft capital of every NFL team, from the Jaguars (1,400 points) to the Dolphins (63 points), using the excellent pick value chart developed by <a href="https://twitter.com/PP_Rich_Hill?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@PP_Rich_Hill</a>. <a href="https://t.co/Zo7E7cW0Ka">pic.twitter.com/Zo7E7cW0Ka</a></p>— Field Yates (@FieldYates) <a href="https://twitter.com/FieldYates/status/1513525887135895559?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 11, 2022</a> </blockquote> </div> <p id="gMEY6u">Team building may come in many different shapes and sizes, Miami General Manager Chris Grier didn’t believe he could find value for his picks in this year’s draft. In fact, hopes of trading down have been linked to many teams inside the top ten as scouts work to decipher prospects worthy of top draft picks. </p> <p id="NaqZ4Q">Four draft picks aren’t a lot for Miami to work with, but having Hill outweighs even the most promising mock drafts for first-year coach Mike McDaniel. Grier and company will have more time to discuss potential options at pick No. 102, which is in the third round. </p> <p id="dqLMDX">Most are projecting an offensive lineman, maybe a center, to Miami? Will the front office be that predictable, or does the front office have its eyes set elsewhere? Running back? Linebacker? </p> </div>
