In the first round, with the 21st overall pick, WalterFootball projects the Dolphins to select defensive tackle Johnny Newton from Illinois. Newton, despite his lack of size and length, is known for his ability to disrupt opposing offenses.
In the second round, the Dolphins are predicted to bolster their offensive line with Roger Rosengarten from Washington. Rosengarten, who protected Michael Penix at Washington, has the potential to play both tackle and guard.
Moving to the fifth round, WalterFootball has the Dolphins adding depth to their receiving corps with wide receiver Jacob Cowing from Arizona. Cowing is known for his speed and agility in the slot.
The Dolphins’ focus on defense continues in the sixth round, where they are projected to select defensive tackle Gabe Hall from Baylor. Hall had a strong season in 2021 but struggled in his final year.
Also in the sixth round, the Dolphins are predicted to address their offensive line again with Frank Crum from Wyoming. With Tua Tagovailoa’s injury history, it’s no surprise that the Dolphins are prioritizing protecting their quarterback.
Finally, in the seventh round, WalterFootball projects the Dolphins to select safety Sanoussi Kane from Purdue. Kane is expected to provide depth behind newly acquired Jordan Poyer.
