It wasn’t the guy I expected us to draft, but it was the position I wanted without question. The O-line is a joke, we have 2 players on that line that are solid in LT Patrick Paul and C Aaron Brewer. That’s it! Jon-Eric Sullivan’s first move in the 2026 NFL Draft was trading back from #11 to #12, one spot with the Dallas Cowboys. We acquired two 5th RD picks, #177 and #180 to move back one spot, and break the hearts of quite a few fans here who wanted S Caleb Downs. One guy who probably was thrilled with the pick was RB De’Von Achane, and another guy was certainly QB Malik Willis. I’m looking forward to having these massive bookends on our O-line, it’s been way too long since this O-line was a strength, and not coincidentally, way too long since this team was a legit contender. Patrick Paul at 6’7 326 and Kadyn Proctor 6’7 352.
Jon-Eric Sullivan’s next trade in the draft was a trade up, as the Dolphins moved from RD1 Pick #30 to Pick #27 by trading Pick #30 and Pick #90 (RD 3) for the #27 Pick and and a 4th RD pick #138. The Dolphins at #27 selected San Diego St. Cornerback Chris Johnson. The 6’0 193lb CB will undoubtedly be pushed to start at the very important CB position. I had hoped we never traded up in this draft, I want more picks, but we really didn’t lose any picks, we just moved back from RD 3 to RD 4. Listen, it’s way too early to judge picks, but I would say the majority of us figured we’d go O-line and CB, and that’s precisely what we did. If/when S Caleb Downs is a perennial All Pro, and Kadyn Proctor is 6’7 380 and the fattest turnstile in Dolphins history, go ahead, pound your chest because you were right. On the other hand, if OT Kadyn Proctor is a motivated player here, and is mauling defenders at the LOS and downfield with regularity and provides solid protection for our QB, I won’t have a care in the world what Caleb Downs is doing.
Day 2 coming up tonight at 7:30 will have the Dolphins waiting 11 spots at Pick #43 and then we’ll have three selections in RD 3, #75, 87 and 94. I won’t be shocked (or disappointed) if we tap a guy for the O-line again in RD 3. LT Patrick Paul, LG Jonah Savaiinaea, C Aaron Brewer, RG Kadyn Proctor, RT Austin Jackson (if healthy). 2 gaping holes bigger than the space between Michael Strahan’s two front teeth that needed to be filled. I personally do not want to hand Big Jonah that job, and I also didn’t want to see OG Jamaree Salyer start at RG. I’m aware we could have selected an OG later and we still might do that. How many times have we been failed by the O-line? How many times have we had to watch an injury torpedo the success of that unit? Two injuries? If not injuries, just out and out subpar play? It’s been a nightmare, and we took one step in attempting to fix that. You all saw the run on the O-line, it was real, and it will probably continue.
I think we’ll probably grab a WR and possibly a TE as well, but where, who knows? I’m curious to see if we move back again in RD 2, that wouldn’t surprise me. We definitely need EDGE help so RD 2 would be a good place to grab one. Players still available at the EDGE position are Zion Young, Cashius Howell, T.J. Parker, Gabe Jacas, Derrick Moore and R. Mason Thomas. We’ll see if we nab one of those guys in RD 2, and then maybe find a WR and another O-lineman. I know some of you love Penn St. EDGE Dani Dennis-Sutton. Maybe we take him. Maybe he would help you guys recover from us not taking Caleb Downs. I know you guys liked him, I respect that, but how did he all of a sudden become a Hall of Famer? I’ll wait for your responses later!
What do you guys think we do in RD 2? Move up? Move back? What position do we target in RD 2? Then what do you think we do in RD 3? Let me know, I want to hear . . .
GO DOLPHINS!!!
Finsmob Unleashed 
Apparently we’re in the 2016 draft lol
Butchered it
TJ Parker to the Bills. Don’t like that.
That sucks
I guess the first 2 teams declined anymore trade downs
Shit, I hope he’s a bust now.
Raiders trade to the Texans.
BBM,
Another reason I’m watching ABC? Nick Saban’s analysis is really, really good. He has Ted Hurst as one of his 4 hidden gems entering the 2nd round.
I won’t be mad at a trade up for him
I could see the Raiders taking him
All these player’s girlfriend are immediately going online to check on the cities “they” are going to be living in now
You see them freaking out more than the players or family.
Texans select Kayden McDonald.
Kayden McDonald to the Texans.
WordPress SUCKS!
Texans DL got even better
YUP!
They are stacked
Texans building from the INSIDE out.
Colton Hood to the G-Men. They’re having a great draft!
Giants having a phenomenal draft so far
Giants are Rocking this draft
Check
I turned ABC on the TV. The girls in the office will have to do without their reality TV
test
Raiders take Stukes, he’ll be 25 soon, so good for us
testing
saw Jacob Rodriguez mocked to us at 43, an hour ago
he’s too small for Hafley
EMW, Terrell, Young, Howell still on board, we could take one
I’d love EMW
All right Boston is gone!
Boston gone, good for us
Davonte Parker clone
Denzel Boston to the Brownies.
Bri, Rich – do you guys like Haulcy?
see below !
yes, I listed him in my post above as a day 2 favorite.
💯
I’m pulling for EMW to us
Gotcha, EMW more than Haulcy
definitely . Love his size .
damn there goes R Mason
I wouldn’t mind Wheatley later on
Howell, another one I liked
we should, see Brian, take EMW
We’re on the clock!
we’re going to trade down
lots of players I like still there, we should drop back 7 or 8 spots
I think Dwight Stephenson was supposed to announce our pick
and commercial.
of course!
testes
Just go ahead and take Pregnon
here we go…
Trade back for the third we gave up
I love the 70’s mustache. He’d fit right in with the 72 team. LOL
I saw someone wrote an article today and mocked him to us.
Test
There it is! Dolphins Pick commercial time! 😡
Commercial
Jacob Rodriguez!!!
OMG
Anyone got some info on this guy?
LOL
Texas Tech, the had a great D, he was the leader, when he came back from injury they were amazing, ballhawk, creates fumbles, football smart as hell
Mike this one is for you
for wearing the Zach Thomas jersey
He’s as good as I’ve seen at punching the ball out.
he’s small for a LB
thought they wouldn’t take him, a little small
He’s like a box safety / mega nickle
6 1.5 233
They like their big multi taskers on D
yeah, he seems a bit small. We’ll see.
he’s Zach 2 inches taller, and faster
Dodson is now on the bench
So now we wait and see if the absolutely love a player before next round of if they wait until 75
Jacob can absolutely ball
I like th pick. He reminds me of Zach Thomas
Damn, I was victimized by wordpress again there for awhile.
Hmmm..
it’s a Phindog’s sighting
That’s a Ravens pick
I was hoping we would take him, but the DUI probably put Miami
You see him blank Proctor on that play they just showed
Well, that didn’t post either. I guess my posts are going to have a 10 min delay or something stupid like that.
Nope, but might be a few seconds as I drag them out of the spam folder…
Ahhhhh back to spam duty….
We appreciate you
We appreciate you
Thanks Twice!
I would rather of gotten Zion Young instead of Rodriguez
There goes Piggy’s crush
We need wr’s and edge now mainly?
jacob rodriguez has 150 lbs in his neck
They’ll need to keep Rodriguez clean to make plays – would the d-line be up to that task? Dunno.
Brookes feasted without him. They are going to be wicked together
I’ve gotta think we’re going to trade up from R3P75. There’s just too much talent left on the board that will go before we pick again.
Doggy sighting? 🐶
Twice, YOU ROCK!!!
Bookend Brothers!
almost had it peoples
Almost had what? What up dog?
Jackass still on the board
And I’m back… Need to do the photo thing now. Missed all of you.
HEY!!!
🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶🐶
Rodriguez, I dub the Meganickle
We drafted a 1970s porn star from Mexico who likes to punch balls? A+
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
of course WordPress crashes when I try to update my Avatar 🐕😆
oh, you should have seen the mock draft. Welcome back brother
Thanks Bri.. great to be back.
WordPress has been a cee u next Tuesday here lately
Jets ruining this draft for BBM
We drafted Zach Thomas 2026. 🙂
Your boy Golday just went
I know
I wasn’t a fan of the Rodriguez pick with the guys still on the board
but honestly it’s a weird draft
a lot of good players still there
can’t believe Hill and Allen are still there
DOGGY

I’m trying brother…. I’ll get it 😎👍
There are a lot of guys crying this draft
This generation is very in touch with their emotions
😂
Hear the song in your head as you read this
You would cry too if it happened toooooo you (Just got drafted by Cleveland)
How is that tool worth tens of millions of dollars. Our society is pathetic.
^
Allen. Good choice Indy.
Stowers off the board
Chargers trade R2P55 to the Patsies*.
Having a guy who can punch like people say this guy can is a weapon in the kick coverage game.
Gabe Jacas to the Patsies*
Pregnon and Dunker still on the board
a bunch of good safeties are still there
and
good WRs too
if we are going to trade up it’s going to be for a edge after the Jacas pick
I agree. It’s getting mighty thin at EDGE now. DDS is my guy.
I think other than DDS? It’s Barham, Josephs and maybe Height
the jags pick a head scratcher
Bri – who were you referring to st 8:33?
I knew Jones would go higher than people thought.
Yes you did! Props!
49ers trade R2P58 to the Brownies.
NO!!! EMW to the Brownies.
patsies add one more Jacas to their history of Jackasses
welcome back doggie
the picks are getting really weird now
especially the tight ends
WordPress blows goats !!! 🐐
INDEED it does! Hey, Phindog!!!
Whatup MF..

———–
I’m HIGH on Josephs, like Height, don’t care much for Barham. JMO
I actually like Barham but he’s more like a 3rd down guy IMO
Okay it looks to me that we’re going to roll with the IDL, Edge, ILB and DB as is. Not saying we won’t add more defense, just not projected starters. We hope for sleepers and depth from here on out. Important selections.
Offense might be up for a few picks.
Max Klare to the Rams. The run on TEs has occurred and may be over now?
Broncos trade R2P62 to the Bills.
Michael Trigg is the TE I hope we take
at WR there’s still at least 10 guys that can help us
Bills take Davison Igbinosun.
The competition is going to be wide open on defense. There are no lock starters other than probably Brooks. Not that we don’t have guys capable of starting, it’s just not determined yet. New coaches and scheme and not many players set in their ways. It she be fun to see it pan out.
