INDIANAPOLIS — The 2026 NFL scouting combine concluded Sunday, and professional teams now have all the measurables from draft prospects who participated in drills and testing at Lucas Oil Stadium.

From the Miami Dolphins’ perspective, the past week started with new general manager Jon-Eric Sullivan unveiling tidbits of his offseason plan, like that all options being on the table with how to manage quarterback Tua Tagovailoa and his guaranteed $54 million for 2026.

Before the Dolphins’ focus shifts to the draft in April, they have free agency starting next week.

Miami will be acquiring veteran talent then, but with the team strapped for cash, Sullivan’s primary objective in his first offseason at the helm is to build through the draft.

The Dolphins have needs at virtually all positions, but they will surely be looking at edge rushers, cornerbacks, quarterbacks, pass catchers and linemen.

Miami has eight picks in the 2026 draft, starting with No. 11 in the first round, a second-round selection at No. 43 and then three in the third round.

Here are 10 prospects, many of which could interest the Dolphins, who improved their draft stock at the combine:

Malachi Lawrence, UCF edge defender

Ohio State’s Arvell Reese and Texas Tech’s David Bailey, two of the top three edge rushers in the draft with Miami’s Rueben Bain, ran the fastest 40-yard dashes among players at the position. After them, Lawrence was next at 4.52 seconds.  He showed athleticism at 253 pounds with his 40-inch vertical and 10-foot-10 broad jump. With 20 sacks in his college career, he did it both standing up and with his hand in the ground, which would allow coach Jeff Hafley to use Lawrence in multiple ways with his defensive fronts if he grabs him in the middle rounds.

Brenen Thompson, Mississippi State wide receiver

The combine’s fastest man, Thompson is sure to attract attention for his 4.26-second 40. The Dolphins will need receivers to complement Jaylen Waddle and could especially use a vertical threat like Thompson after Tyreek Hill’s release. If new offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik is anywhere near as speed-obsessed as former coach Mike McDaniel was, he will be eyeing the Bulldogs speedster.

Carson Beck, Miami quarterback

The boos that rained down on him from Indiana fans at Lucas Oil Stadium might’ve been the best thing that could have happened for Beck as a pro prospect. A quarterback at the combine doesn’t go in expecting fans will try to make it difficult on him, but he was poised and precise with his passing under the surprise circumstances. As Beck is now more than a full year removed from his elbow surgery, his stock is rising among passers in this draft.

Taylen Green, Arkansas quarterback

As Miami is bound to part ways with Tagovailoa, the team could go the route of taking an athletic freak of a dual-threat quarterback in the late rounds to come in and compete with Quinn Ewers. Green’s 4.36 40 was a full tenth of a second faster than next-best at the position, Georgia Tech’s Haynes King. Meanwhile, he measured in at 6 foot 6 and 227 pounds. He can still be erratic with his throws, so he would be a project.

Mike Washington Jr., Arkansas running back

Everyone’s raving about Notre Dame’s Jeremiyah Love as the draft’s top running back, and rightfully so. But Washington ran a faster 40 (4.33 seconds) at 223 pounds. Previously at Buffalo and New Mexico State, he had a 1,000-yard rushing season with eight touchdowns in the SEC, so he is on a rapid rise from previously being a relatively unknown prospect over the past six months.

Chris Johnson, San Diego State cornerback

The Dolphins could easily have their choice of top cornerbacks in LSU’s Mansoor Delane and Tennessee’s Jermod McCoy with the No. 11 pick, but if they go elsewhere with that first selection, Johnson could be a second-round option among the next tier. He has the frame, ran a strong 4.40-second 40 and had a 38-inch vertical jump along with smooth footwork in on-field drills.

Monroe Freeling, Georgia tackle

Miami Hurricanes tackle Francis Mauigoa could present a home run if he dropped out of the top 10, but on the other end of that, Freeling is catapulting his stock into the range of the Dolphins’ pick with his combine performance. Athleticism from offensive linemen is needed for an offense that will feature the wide-zone blocking scheme, and Freeling has that with a 1.71-second 10-yard split on his 40, which came in under 5 at 4.93.

Kenyon Sadiq, Oregon tight end

The Dolphins will need a tight end. They probably, with many roster holes, don’t draft the top tight end. But Sadiq’s blazing sub-4.4 time (4.39) has him boosting his stock. Maybe he could be a Miami option if they find a trade down and he ends up being one of two late-first-round selections.

Lorenzo Styles Jr., Ohio State safety

The Styles family is athletic. After linebacker and projected first-round pick Sonny Styles stole the show on Day 1 of drills, his brother ran the fastest time for a safety since at least 2003, with an eye-popping 4.27 40-yard dash. Scouts say he’s still stiff in his on-field work, but that kind of speed might not last to Day 3 of the draft.

Zavion Thomas, LSU wide receiver

Thomas’ 40 was only two-hundredths of a second off of Thompson’s, while outweighing him by 26 pounds, 190 to 164. So he has a more NFL-ready body to go with the speed. He’s a bit raw as a prospect, though, as his on-field production doesn’t match the athletic traits. Still, he could be worth taking a chance on late to develop something with that pure speed under NFL coaching.
