Another Dolphins Podcast

Pressure is building for the Dolphins, and general manager Chris Grier did little to suggest the team is on the right track during last week's press conference. From calling Tyreek Hill a captain to his broader outlook on the roster, Grier didn’t offer much confidence to fans—especially for someone who’s been in the front office for nearly a decade. Also joining the show is Eric Smith (@OLCoachSmith63), contributor for 5 Reasons Sports, to share his final thoughts on the 2025 offensive line draft class. He highlights some late-round sleepers Miami could target, along with a few top prospects who might not be the best fit in South Florida. Check out Eric's video breakdowns here.

The Dolphins face a unique challenge on defense: a deep group of linebackers, but limited help elsewhere. With a Jalen Ramsey trade expected, cornerback becomes a concern—and Miami will roll out two new starting safeties next season. And that’s before we even get to arguably the league’s thinnest defensive tackle group. Are ten draft picks enough to stabilize this many roster flaws?
