Miami Dolphins Discussion: Why Be A Fan Edition

We all made it to this point, that of being a fan of the Miami Dolphins, via a different route, either via someone else’s fandom or all on our own. While some of the routes are similar, we all have our own story as to how we found ourselves here. But what of others? That […]

Will versatile Dolphins rookie Kyle Louis outperform draft position?

The Miami Dolphins drafted University of Pittsburgh linebacker Kyle Louis in the fourth round of the 2026 NFL Draft. Although he wasn’t selected until Day 3, plenty of people around the league are already expecting big things from Louis. According to Bleacher Report, Louis is one of the most likely Day 3 draft picks to […]

Miami Dolphins 2026 “Face Of The Team” According To You

With nearly everyone who could be considered a possible “face of the franchise” having been fired, cut or traded away (with the exception of De’Von Achane), I asked the following question: Who do you believe will emerge as the new “face of the franchise” for our Miami Dolphins this upcoming season? Will it be the […]

What to expect from Miami’s rookie receivers in 2026

The Miami Dolphins are in a rebuild. From top to bottom, most of the team’s highest earners were cut or traded this offseason, in an effort to get the team under the salary cap in 2026 and beyond. The effect of those wholesale changes are seen throughout the team, but perhaps nowhere more blatant than […]

Dolphins 90 in 90: Tight end Greg Dulcich looking to build in 2026

Our 90-in-90 series took a two-day break after just two articles had been posted. On Thursday, I had just about finished a look at tight end Jalin Conyers, only to have the Miami Dolphins announce they were waiving the 2025 undrafted free agent signing. It was perfectly timed to throw off my post. Yesterday, I […]

What can we expect from the Dolphins receivers – The Splash Zone 5/23/26

Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle are both gone, meaning there’s going to be several new faces catching passes this season for the Miami Dolphins. It’s hard to expect much from a wide receiver room that lacks some star power, but this Dolphins offense is expected to be run heavy. Someone is going to have to […]

How many wins for the Dolphins this year – The Splash Zone 5/22/26

Expectations for the Miami Dolphins are pretty low among fans and analysts. That’s to be expected when a new regime comes in and gets rid of the high-priced players to get the salary cap into balance. They are also focused on getting younger and developing that talent. Some analysts are predicting as low as two […]

Miami Dolphins Fans On Media Bias

Last week I asked the following question about the Miami Dolphins fan base’s take on media bias against the team: If you ever did in the first place, do you believe that the national media still shows utter disrespect for the Miami Dolphins, and if so, do you believe that this is deserved, earned, or […]

Miami Dolphins waive two players; add two more

The Miami Dolphins and new general manager Jon-Eric Sullivan continue to churn the team’s roster in a continued effort to rebuild the franchise. On Thursday, the organization parted ways with two players while adding two more. Offensive lineman Braeden Daniels and tight end Jalin Conyers were waived, while running back Carlos Washington Jr. and offensive […]

Miami Dolphins rookies host Special Olympics athletes

The Miami Dolphins had a robust 2026 NFL Draft class — welcoming 13 new draftees to the organization as well as a plethora of undrafted free agents. On Wednesday, those new players had an opportunity to welcome more than fifty Special Olympics athletes to the team’s practice facility for games, autographs and photos. Travis Wingfield […]

The return of our 90-in-90 series yesterday featured cornerback JuJu Brents. Today, we […]

‘Nostradamus-Like’: Miami Dolphins GM predicted 2026 NFL Draft first-round outcome

The Miami Dolphins are in their Jon-Eric Sullivan era after firing longtime general manager Chris Grier last season and replacing him with the former Green Bay Packers vice president of player personnel earlier this year. Sullivan just completed his first NFL Draft as the head-man-in-charge in Miami, and according to reports, he accurately called his […]

Dolphins seem to foil Lions draft plans – The Splash Zone 5/20/26

The Miami Dolphins may not have been the only team interested in Kadyn Proctor as it’s come out that the Detroit Lions may have coveted the big offensive lineman. The Lions (17) were working on trading up with the Baltimore Ravens (14) but that plan fell through when the Dolphins selected Proctor. Though it wasn’t […]

Your Way Too Early 2027 Miami Dolphins Draft Needs

With the 2026 NFL Draft now behind us, and most of the free agents that the team could afford to add up to this point already part of the roster, I asked the following “way too early” question: Given what you know about the Miami Dolphins roster presently and given what you believe you know […]

The Miami Dolphins will begin Organized Team Activities (OTAs) this week and it will mainly be focused on learning the new system set in place by Jeff Hafley and his coaches. While there will be no full contact during practice, there will be drills such as 7 on 7’s that will allow us to see […]

Your Miami Dolphins Draft Pick Comparisons

Last week, I asked you the following question: Assuming Jacom Rodriguez is comparable at this point to Zach Thomas (unless you have a better/different comparison for him), what other comparisons would you make for the other players from the Miami Dolphins’ 2026 NFL Draft class? This comparison can be a former Dolphins player or any […]

Dolphins start OTAs as 2026 offseason training program continues

The Miami Dolphins opened their first round of organized team activities, or OTAs, on Monday as the team progressed into phase three of their 2026 offseason training program. The first two phases of the program are focused on film work and individual drills. In phase three, the team can start working on offense versus defense […]

What was Mike McDaniel’s plan – The Splash Zone 5/18/26

It seemed like Mike McDaniel was still going to be the Miami Dolphins head coach heading into the 2026 when he survived the first few days after the season had come to an end. But Stephen Ross decided the team needed a clean slate at both general manager and head coach. Former Dolphins tight end, […]
