While acquiring many lower-tier free agents — minus their star acquisition of quarterback Malik Willis — the team could still use help in a plethora of positions.
With the 2026 NFL Draft kicking off in less than one month, and the Dolphins owning 11 picks in the selection process, they’ll have every opportunity to infuse the roster with young, quality talent. On Tuesday, ESPN’s Field Yates released a two-round mock draft — and if his selections for Miami were to come to pass next month when the draft begins, plenty of Dolphins fans would be heavily praising the picks. At number 11, Yates has the Dolphins taking University of Miami offensive lineman Francis Mauigoa.

Mauigoa is a steady, well-built pass protector with raw power and the ability to get to the second level. Right tackle Austin Jackson recently agreed to a reduced and restructured contract that’s over after next season, so Mauigoa could slide in there. At number 30, Yates has the Dolphins addressing their wide receiver needs.
