The Miami Dolphins' approach to the 2025 NFL Draft was conservative, focusing primarily on bolstering the trenches with the selection of defensive tackle Kenneth Grant and offensive lineman Jonah Savaiinaea. While this strategy aims to strengthen their foundational units, it left unaddressed needs in key positions, such as cornerback, until the fifth round. This delayed prioritization opens doors for current players to shine, especially for Storm Duck and Cam Smith, who now have a clearer path to significant playing time.

However, some veterans like Liam Eichenberg may see their roles diminished as new talent fills the roster. Meanwhile, Jalen Ramsey’s future with the Dolphins remains uncertain, with a potential trade becoming less likely after the draft. Tyreek Hill’s status appears secure, as the team opted against adding any new receivers, reaffirming their commitment to retaining the eight-time Pro Bowler.
