We knew the Dolphins would be taking a playmaker with their first selection at #6. We just weren’t sure who it was going to be. Kyle Pitts and Ja’Marr Chase were the favorites to go there but both were off the board by the time the Dolphins picked. The Dolphins ended up taking Jaylen Waddle, a wide receiver compared to Tyreek Hill for his freak speed. Waddle will reunite with Tua Tagovailoa and hopefully they can get some big plays going on offense.
The Dolphins could have went any direction with the #18 pick. They decided to add edge rusher Jaelan Phillips. He was regarded as the top edge rusher in the draft this year but brings some concern with his injury history. If he can stay healthy though, analyst seeing him being a nightmare for opposing quarterbacks.
You can check out that story here, and the rest of the day’s round-up below.
