The Miami Dolphins are in a better place with their 2024 NFL Draft picks than they were in 2023. With just four picks and their first-round pick having been stripped due to tampering charges, the Dolphins will pick in the first round of 2024.
Having made the playoffs in 2023, the Dolphins were a battered bunch with numerous starters on both sides of the football injured and unable to play against the Kansas City Chiefs. Pair that with the fact that the weather was extreme and you have a really unfortunate end to the season.
Now, the Dolphins do still return their core pieces on both sides of the ball with the opportunity to add some talented players. Who will the Dolphins target and with what picks?

Dolphins NFL Draft needs
- Offensive line It doesn't matter the position. The Dolphins need to figure out how to add talent here. Whoever they draft could step in right away and be an impactful player.
- Defensive line The Dolphins lost both Christian Wilkins and Raekwon Davis in free agency and replaced them with the likes of Teair Tart, Da'Shawn Hand and Neville Gallimore. Those are capable players but adding some higher end talent should be a priority.
- Safety Wide receiver is an interesting one, especially since both Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle are on the roster. However, they both have some injury history and 11 personnel isn't very strong without a good third wide receiver.f
