Grading EVERY Dolphins Pick

from Little Big Opinions

The 2026 NFL Draft is officially in the books, and it’s time to find out if the Miami Dolphins secured a championship foundation or just a collection of prospects. In this episode, the LBO crew delivers their definitive 7-round report card for the first draft class of the Jon-Eric Sullivan and Jeff Hafley era. We’re breaking down all 13 selections, from the massive physical presence of Kadyn Proctor at #11 to the "Tape DNA" impact of Jacob Rodriguez in the second round. Did the Dolphins reach for wide receiver depth, or did they find the missing pieces to finally win in the trenches? We also dive into the Undrafted Free Agent (UDFA) tracker to identify the sleepers who could steal a roster spot this summer. 🏈 Inside the Report Card: Round 1 Analysis: Was passing on Caleb Downs for Kadyn Proctor the right move for the O-Line? The "Tape DNA" Gems: Why Jacob Rodriguez and Kyle Louis are the perfect fits for Hafley's defense. The WR Debate: Grading the selections of Chris Bell and Caleb Douglas—who has the higher ceiling? Draft Philosophy: How "Fast gets slow but big doesn't get small" defined this entire weekend. UDFA Sleepers: Two names to watch as we head toward training camp. It’s the ultimate draft post-mortem with the rawest takes in the 305. #LBO #MiamiDolphins #NFLDraft2026 #FinsUp #KadynProctor #JacobRodriguez #MiamiSports #DraftGrades #TapeDNA #NFLDraft (00:00) Intro: The 2026 NFL Draft Recap (05:30) Round 1, Pick 11: Kadyn Proctor (OT) – Was it the right move?
