The Miami Dolphins will select No. 11 overall in the 2026 NFL Draft after a 7-10 season.
It’s set to be Miami’s earliest selection since 2021 when it used the No. 6 overall pick to take wide receiver Jaylen Waddle. During Mike McDaniel’s tenure as head coach, the Dolphins have had just two first-round picks and use them to take Chop Robinson in 2024 at No. 21 overall and Kenneth Grant in 2025 at No. 13 overall.
