The Miami Dolphins opened the 2025 NFL Draft by picking defensive tackle Kenneth Grant 13th overall and offensive guard Jonah Savaiinaea in the second round. The offseason has signaled a new era for the Dolphins, with the team looking to move on from cornerback Jalen Ramsey and star left tackle Terron Armstead announcing his retirement.

After reaching the playoffs in each of Mike McDaniel’s first two seasons in charge, the Dolphins struggled in his third season, going 8-9 and missing out on the postseason in 2024.

Miami traded their sixth-round pick in 2025 to the Bears back in 2023 in the deal that brought wide receiver Chase Claypool to South Florida. Miami originally acquired this pick from the Claypool trade that sent away the 192nd overall pick.
