The 2020 NFL Draft is officially over. And with it, comes all the classic talk that always follows drafts.

Who was surprisingly undrafted? Which players did a team reach on and took earlier than expected? What prospects fell down the draft boards and went earlier than anyone thought? Did any crazy trades happen? Any selections that didn't make sense for a team?

The most exciting thing to do is talk about the busts and the steals. However, that's something that can't be discussed for the 2020 draft for quite some time, as the players need to actually hit the field to figure that out.

We can talk about past drafts, though. And that's exactly what we're going to do.

Who are the greatest NFL Draft steals in Miami franchise history? Let's take a look and answer that question.

5. Ed Newman

The Dolphins selected Ed Newman in the sixth round of the 1973 NFL Draft with the 156th overall pick.

Newman spent 12 seasons in the NFL, all with Miami. In the first few years with the team, the guard was more of a backup than anything else, only making a start sparingly.

By 1976, the tides began to turn and in 1979 he was officially a full-time starter. Newman took advantage of that too, as he made it to four Pro Bowls, was a first team All-Pro one time (1984) and won one Super Bowl.

What was incredible about Newman's career was that he not only had to overcome being a sixth-round pick, but it also took him years to develop into a starter. Newman scratched and clawed his way into the lineup, and rewarded Miami by becoming one of the better offensive linemen in franchise history.

4. Jason Taylor

Spoiler alert: Jason Taylor is the earlist player drafted on this list. Miami selected him in the third round (73rd overall) in the 1997 NFL Draft.

Although he was taken much earlier than anyone else on the list, it was impossible not to include Taylor.

It's obvious as to why. Taylor racked up absurd numbers in Miami in his 13 seasons with the team.

In those 13 years, the defensive end accumulated 723 tackles (137 for loss, and that's with those not being counted his first two years), eight interceptions, 72 pass deflections, 43 forced fumbles, 27 fumble recoveries, nine defensive touchdowns and a whopping 131 sacks.

Those 131 sacks are a franchise record, and it's not close — Cameron Wake is second with 98.

Taylor also spent one season with the Washington Redskins and one season with the New York Jets. He added 8.5 sacks (bringing his career total to 139.5), three more forced fumbles (bringing his total to 46) and 14 more tackles for loss (bringing his total to 151).

The sacks are seventh all-time in the NFL. Meanwhile, the forced fumbles are fourth all-time and the tackles for loss are sixth all-time.

Taylor made it to six Pro Bowls. He was also a first team All-Pro three times and the 2006 AP Defensive Player of the Year.

Taylor retired after the 2011 season and was promptly inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2017. Even as a third rounder, easily a top steal in franchise history.

3. Zach Thomas

Next we're going to go to a man that played alongside Taylor for many of those years. And as an additional fact, Zach Thomas and Taylor are actually brother-in-laws. Taylor was married to Thomas' sister for 14 years and they have three children together.

In the 1996 NFL Draft, the Dolphins used a fifth-round pick (154th overall) to select Thomas. He started immediately, and made Miami look absolutely genius for having selected him.

The linebacker spent 12 of his 13 NFL seasons with the Dolphins. In those 12 years, Thomas would turn into an all-time great for the franchise.

With Miami, Thomas recorded an impressive 1,640 tackles (70 tackles for loss) in 168 games, nearly 10 tackles a game. He also posted 19.5 sacks, 16 forced fumbles, 45 pass deflections, 17 interceptions and four touchdowns.

Thomas was a true anchor of the defense. That led to him making it to seven Pro Bowls and five first team All-Pros. Somehow, he has not yet made the Pro Hall of Fame despite of his impressive stat line. Adding in his lone, final season with the Cowboys, he finished with 1,734 tackles (fifth all-time).

Even though Thomas has been snubbed by the Hall of Fame so far, he's not getting snubbed here, coming in at No. 3

2. Jake Scott

The Dolphins selected Jake Scott in the seventh round (159th overall) of the 1970 NFL Draft. Scott would go on to play nine seasons in the NFL, six with the Dolphins.

In his six years with Miami, the defensive back racked up 35 interceptions. That's the most in franchise history. He would then go on to add 14 more with the Washington Redskins (the team he played for during the last three years of his career), to raise that number to 49.

Scott is arguably the best safety in franchise history. And that's backed up by the numbers. He was selected to five Pro Bowls and was a first team All-Pro two times.

Scott was also part of two Super Bowl-winning teams with Miami, including in 1972, when he won the Super Bowl MVP.

The safety is not in the Pro Football Hall of Fame, but he's certainly one of the best players the Dolphins have ever had. And the fact that they got him via a seventh round pick is icing on the cake. He's an obvious steal.

1. Mark Clayton

Mark Clayton was drafted in the eighth round (223rd overall) by the Dolphins in 1983. Due to his draft position, if Clayton carved out any type of career it could be argued that he was a steal.

Clayton did more than just make the occasional play though, he was the guy.

The wide receiver spent 11 years in the NFL, 10 with the Dolphins and a final year with the Green Bay Packers. In his time with Miami, Clayton racked up 550 receptions for 8,643 yards and 81 touchdowns.

The receptions and touchdowns are both the most in franchise history. Meanwhile, his receiving yards are second only to Mark Duper's mark of 8,869.

Clayton spent his rookie season with the Dolphins primarily as a punt returner. It was his only season with the duties and he scored once. After that, he turned into the best receiver in the franchise's history.

Clayton racked up 73 receptions for 1,389 yards and 18 touchdowns. That set the tone for the rest of his incredible career.

He added to his total in his one season with Green Bay, and finished his career with 582 receptions for 8,974 yards and 84 touchdowns. Clayton made it to five Pro Bowls.

He remains the greatest wide receiver in franchise history as well the greatest NFL Draft steal that the Dolphins have ever had.
