The Dolphins signed sixth-round pick B.J. Cunningham to a four-year deal Thursday, according to the South Florida Sun Sentinel. He is the first member of the Dolphins' 2012 draft class to sign with the team.
While most teams have inked some or all of their 2012 draft picks, the Dolphins have taken their time.
Miami selected the former Spartan with the 183rd overall pick in April's draft. Cunningham was a four year-starter at Michigan State and is the university's all-time leader in receptions and receiving touchdowns.Cunningham will hopefully help bolster a weak Dolphins' receiving corps that lost Pro Bowler Brandon Marshall in a trade to Chicago. Miami also drafted Nevada receiver Rishard Matthews in the seventh round.
