Opinion: Top 3 players the Miami Dolphins should draft at 18

The 2021 NFL draft is right around the corner. The Miami Dolphins are at the tail end of their rebuild and have the draft capital to do some major damage in this year’s draft and fill out the remaining holes on this roster. As of now, Miami has two picks in the first round and the potential to be even more mobile with their picks come draft night.

In my first piece, I covered my favorite players that Miami should target at number 6. Now, I am going to look at the players I think Miami should be considering with their second first round pick.

Obviously, the Dolphin’s pick at 18 is completely dependent on what they do at 6 overall. So, the players listed in this article are players I believe could be available at 18 and would be good fits for the Dolphins.

I also believe Miami will be going with a defensive player at 18, assuming they take a wide receiver or tight end at 6 overall. Miami could target a running back at 18, but I think that would be a reach and I think one of the top players would be available for them in the second round. So, this article will cover defensive players I believe will be there at 18.

Without further ado, let’s get to some of my favorite players at 18 overall.
