As much as I want to believe the thought here, I just don't quite see it. Salas went to the Rams at pick #112. The Dolphins selected another WR (not from Hawaii or SMU) at pick #111.
The Dolphins did bring in a former Hawaii receiver to their camp last year (Ryan Grice-Mullen) who happened to have been a teammate and best bud with Davone Bess. But, he was injured during much of camp and was eventually waived. I haven't seen any other JJ-related receiver in the current Dolphins regime.
I do recall (in '08 and '09) either the Dophins' receivers coach, or OC, or Sparano raving about Bess' college experience in JJ's system and the volume of balls caught by the receivers, as well as their route-running acumen.
Hopefully, with Davone, and Emmanuel, and Aldrick, a nice trend is being established.
