The Miami Dolphins are entering a major rebuild. Miami traded away wide receiver Jaylen Waddle to the Denver Broncos for multiple draft picks. The Dolphins will have the 11th and 30th overall picks in the first round of the 2026 NFL Draft. Miami no doubt needs to rebuild its entire roster.

They won’t plan on drafting a quarterback in the 2026 NFL Draft because they have quarterback Malik Willis under contract for the next three years. The Dolphins also have a new regime in place with head coach Jeff Hafley and general manager Jon Eric-Sullivan. There is no doubt that Miami needs to find new wide receivers after getting rid of Waddle and releasing Tyreek Hill earlier this offseason.

Jordan Plocher of profootballfocus.com wrote about the latest 2026 NFL Mock Draft. He has the Dolphins selecting wide receiver Denzel Boston from the Washington Huskies with the 30th overall selection in the 2026 NFL Draft. Plocher said, “The Dolphins selected an offensive tackle with their earlier pick and now address their need at wide receiver after the Jaylen Waddle trade. Denzel Boston is a big-bodied wide receiver at 6-foot-3 and 212 pounds with a 77 3/8-inch wingspan. His 88.0 PFF overall grade in 2025 ranks second in the class among wide receivers, after Makai Lemon.
Boston can win against man coverage, having notched an 89.7 PFF receiving grade against those looks in 2025. He is a downfield threat who also notched a 97.2 PFF receiving grade on intermediate throws. Boston’s size and production would be a nice addition to the remodeled Dolphins wide receiver group.”
There is no doubt that Miami is going to potentially draft a couple of rookie wide receivers in the 2026 NFL Draft. Boston last season with Washington caught 62 passes for 881 yards receiving and 11 touchdowns, along with averaging 14.2 yards per reception. He is 6’4″ and weighs 209 lbs. Boston is one of the top wide receivers in the 2026 NFL Draft class here.
