Miami Dolphins fans are no strangers to watching the team pass on quality talent at any position. They have lived through the days of the offensive line being neglected, so seeing a top tight end prospect leave the building without a deal is nothing new.
The Dolphins have not fully addressed their tight end room in several years. The last draft pick they used on a top prospect was in 2018 when they took Mike Gesicki in the second round. Miami has not invested another draft pick on the position since it took Hunter Long in 2021. The big get in 2025 was a trade for the formerly retired Darren Waller after they traded Jonnu Smith to Pittsburgh.
