"The Dolphins, under the guidance of new general manager Jon-Eric Sullivan and new coach Jeff Hafley, have eight picks in the April 23-25 draft - one in the first round (No. 11), one in the second (43), three in the third (75, 87 and 90), one in the fourth (111), one in the fifth (149) and one in the seventh (227)."
"Sullivan and Hafley have said they'd like to be strong on both sides of the line of scrimmage. They've also said they recognize the importance of the quarterback position. But it's doubtful that anyone thinks the Dolphins can get a starting-caliber quarterback at No. 11. Or, put another way, it's doubtful that anyone thinks Alabama's Ty Simpson is worth the 11th overall pick. But the draft process is just beginning. And it's not a far climb. Stay tuned."
The Senior Bowl and East-West Shrine Bowl have concluded, enabling an initial 2026 NFL mock draft projection. The Miami Dolphins hold eight selections across seven rounds: No. 11, 43, 75, 87, 90, 111, 149 and 227. Team needs prioritize quarterback, cornerback and edge rusher/outside linebacker, with secondary needs at interior defensive line, tight end, reserve offensive line and wide receiver. New general manager Jon-Eric Sullivan and coach Jeff Hafley emphasize strength on both lines and acknowledge the importance of quarterback. The front office doubts a starting-caliber quarterback will be available at No. 11 and questions Ty Simpson’s value at that slot. Early mock selections begin with the Raiders taking Fernando Mendoza as the projected top quarterback.
