The Miami Dolphins' 2026 draft class is officially in the books, and as always, it has fans buzzing with a mix of excitement and skepticism. Every pick in this year's lineup has its supporters and critics, but the true verdict will only come after we see how these rookies develop over the next two or three seasons. Let's break down the full draft haul and then pose a key question to the Dolphins faithful.
The Dolphins made nine selections, starting strong in the first round with offensive tackle Kadyn Proctor at pick 12, followed by cornerback Chris Johnson at pick 27. The second round brought linebacker Jacob Rodriguez at pick 43, while the third round featured wide receiver Caleb Douglas at pick 75 and tight end Will Kacmarek at pick 87. The later rounds added depth: safety Michael Taaffe at pick 158, wide receiver Kevin Coleman Jr. at pick 177, tight end Seydou Traore at pick 180, and edge rusher Max Llewellyn rounding out the class at pick 238.
So, here's tonight's Phinsider Question of the Day: Which of these picks would you assign the following designations?
- Pick With The Highest Ceiling (the player who still has plenty of room to grow and could become a star)
- Pick With The Lowest Ceiling (the player who is already close to their full potential at the next level)
