The Miami Dolphins will pick in the 11th spot of the 2018 NFL Draft. Now that the season has concluded, the Dolphins 6-10 record was not good enough for the post-season and not good enough for the drafts top 10.

Miami will draft in the 11th spot for only the second time in the teams history. That is if they do not trade out of the spot. In 1969 the Dolphins drafted Bill Stanfill in the 11th position.

Miami will rotate rounds with the Oakland Raiders and the San Francisco 49’ers for the 9th, 10th, and 11th positions. Miami takes the 11th spot due to a better winning percentage but all three teams finished with only six wins.

In round two Miami will move up to the 10th spot and in round three they will select in the 9th spot before returning to the 11th spot in round four. They will rotate again for the rest of the draft. The Raiders and 49’ers draft spot will be determined by a coin flip later this year.

For Miami the options at number 11 should provide some top blue chip talent. Miami will enter the draft needing offensive line help, linebacker help, tight-end, and potentially a quarterback. All of those positions should have top talent at the 11th spot.

    The Dolphins have selections in rounds one, two, and three. They have a 4th round pick from the Philadelphia Eagles in the Jay Ajayi trade but traded a 5th round pick to the Saints for LB Stephone Anthony. Miami as a result have no 5th round pick. They will have a sixth rounder and two 7th round picks obtaining one from the Buccaneers.
