WATCH: Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel appears to be fired up after drafting Channing Tindall

After roughly 8.5 hours of the 2022 NFL draft had gone by, the Miami Dolphins finally made their first selection of the event, as they took Georgia linebacker Channing Tindall at pick No. 102.

General manager Chris Grier is taking a chance on a guy who was never really a starter in college, but he also had two monsters ahead of him in Quay Walker and Nakobe Dean. Grier, and the rest of the organization, are hoping that Tindall can take a step while learning from Miami’s coaching staff and veterans.

During the selection, NFL Network shared a live look into the Dolphins’ draft room. With this being the first draft pick since Mike McDaniel took over as head coach, it’s understandable that the coach was letting his patented energy and enthusiasm flow through him.

He was even cool enough to give Dan Marino the respectful, congratulatory handshake.
