Do Dolphins owe it to Malik Willis to invest on WR/s in NFL Draft?

When the Miami Dolphins selected Ryan Tannehill with the 8th overall pick in 2012, they waited until the 6th and 7th rounds to add receivers. And it wasn't until two years later that Miami invested heavily at receiver in the draft, hitting on Jarvis Landry in the second round. For years, Dolphins observers would cite not only who was blocking for Tannehill, but also who he was throwing to, in an effort to defend subpar performances.

When the Dolphins selected Tua Tagovailoa with the 5th overall pick in 2020, they selected no receivers, and then added Jaylen Waddle, a key target, in 2021. Early on, observers would cite not only who was blocking for Tua, but also who he was throwing to, in an effort to defend subpart performances. Dolphins want to provide targets for Malik Willis In essence, the Dolphins' quarterback draft pick in 2026 is projected starter Malik Willis , the 26-year-old signed as a free agent from the Green Bay Packers .

The Dolphins have traded away Waddle and cut Tyreek Hill. Does general manager Jon-Eric Sullivan and the franchise that signed Willis, now owe it to him to add one or two top-flight receiving targets in the upcoming NFL Draft? Yes.

And no. It's tricky. And we'll explain.
