MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — The Miami Dolphins selected a wide receiver, linebacker and quarterback on the final day of the NFL Draft.

Texas Tech wide receiver Erik Ezukanma, California linebacker Cameron Goode and Kansas State quarterback Skylar Thompson were selected by Miami on Saturday.

Ezukanma was selected No. 125 overall in the fourth round, while Goode and Skylar were seventh-round picks.

The Dolphins had the fewest picks of any team in the draft this year.

He capped his college career with 138 receptions for 2,165 yards and 15 touchdowns.

Goode started and played in 37 career games over the final five of his six seasons at Cal.

He finished with 171 tackles, 36.5 tackles for loss, 21.5 sacks, two interceptions returned for a touchdown, two forced fumbles and a pair of fumble recoveries.
