The Dolphins’ updated collection of 2026 NFL Draft picks after blockbuster Jaylen Waddle trade
Not a bad start for a team hoping to “build through the draft”.
The Miami Dolphins‘ overhaul is not only underway, it is speeding faster than a cheetah. Or, in this case, a penguin.
The man known as “Penguin”, Jaylen Waddle, has been traded to the Denver Broncos in a massive deal that has turned Miami’s roster on its head. Miami was already in the process of wholesale changes after moving on from the team’s top passer, receiver, top-two pass rushers and the team’s best secondary player. At least Miami gets picks for this one. And suddenly, there are picks aplenty in South Florida. Here’s the latest rundown on Miami’s full NFL Draft offering for 2026.
Dolphins stocked to the brim with top-100 draft choices

The Dolphins now have more draft picks scheduled in 2026 than you can count on two hands. As of now, Miami currently is in possession of the following draft picks:
- 11th overall, 1st round
- 30th overall, 1st round (via Denver)
- 43rd overall, 2nd round
- 75th overall, 3rd round
- 87th overall, 3rd round (via Philadelphia)
- 90th overall, 3rd round (via Houston)
- 94th overall, 3rd round (via Denver)
- 130th overall, 4th round (via Denver)
- 151st overall, 5th round
- 227th overall, 7th round
- 238th overall, 7th round (via New York Jets)
General manager Jon-Eric Sullivan told us he wanted to build this roster through the draft. Indeed. He will have the chance to do exactly that. And if he drafts well, we will be able to point to 2026 as the launch point of this new roster — because Miami is as loaded as just about any team in the league for this year’s class after today.
