Dolphins trade up to nab the electrifying Jakeem Grant

The Miami Dolphins traded up to select Texas Tech receiver Jakeem Grant in the sixth round of the 2016 NFL Draft.

The team originally held the 186th-overall pick, but dealt it away in a previous deal before reacquiring the pick from the Vikings.

The diminutive 5-foot-6, 165-pound former Red Raider is an electrifying player with the ball in his hands. He had four kick return touchdowns in his career with Texas Tech, and could certainly help the Dolphins in that area.
