With the 2021 NFL draft on the horizon, the Miami Dolphins enter the draft with four picks in the top 50 and multiple holes to fill.

After a jam-packed offseason that has seen the team move away from multiple players from last offseason, Kyle Van-Noy, Shaq Lawson, and Eric Flowers, the team filled some keyholes but opened new ones with those departures.

Thanks to the Houston Texans and San Francisco 49ers, this year’s draft has become one of the most intriguing ones for the Dolphins. A ten-win season and one win away from a playoff appearance, Brian Flores and Chris Grier have this young roster playing hard and winning games.

So who could Miami add at picks 6, 18, 36, and 50 that could take this roster to the next level?

After trading Flowers to Washington, Miami will likely move Robert Hunt inside to right guard. Taking Sewell will allow the team to solidify the offensive line and protect Tagovailoa’s blindside.

Assuming Kyle Pitts and Ja’Marr Chase are gone by the time the Dolphins draft at six, Sewell is likely the obvious choice for the Dolphins. After adding Will Fuller in free agency, the team could wait to add an impact wideout in what seems to be a deep class.

As for Tua Tagovailoa, protecting his blindside is vital if the team does not want another Ryan Tannehill situation. Tagovailoa’s injury history is not a promising one and doing everything you can to avoid him getting should be a priority.
