The Miami Dolphins may have a ton of holes on the roster, but I do my best to improve the team in my first mock draft of the 2025 NFL season. #FinsUp
I hate mock drafts.
I really do.
I hate everything about them, and nowadays, the mock draft simulators are even more frustrating. There’s always a pick that completely messes everything up, or a player ranked way too high or low. It pisses me off! And yet, here I am, getting ready to write an entire article about the players I selected in my first seven-round Miami Dolphins mock draft of the season.
I didn’t want to do a ton of mock drafts this offseason. But when my co-host Jake Mendel and Draft guru Brian Cat suggested we record an episode where we each do a mock draft based on what WE would do if we were general manager Chris Grier and our livelihood was hanging in the balance, I knew what needed to be done. Hopefully, you’re already subscribed to the podcast, but if not, you can listen to Friday’s episode HERE.
I won’t spoil what Cat or Jake did, but I want to dive into my selections and break down why I decided to go the route. This won’t become a weekly thing, I promise, but I will be back at some point next week to talk about what I believe Chris Grier will do at 13. But enough about that, here’s MY first mock draft of the season.
2024 Stats: 104 receptions, 1,233 yards, 8 TDs, 26 carries, 218 yards, 4 TDs
Other options: Malaki Starks, Kelvin Banks Jr.
Played 916 offensive snaps in 2024 per Pro Football Focus:::
He’s not Brock Bowers, but no one is, if we’re being completely honest. Warren doesn’t have the #elite attributes and numbers but he’s a damn good football player. He can do everything well and instantly improves every aspect of whatever offense he inevitably gets drafted into. Whether that be as a traditional tight end, a slot wide receiver, a blocker in short yardage, or as the man behind center, Warren can do it all.
6’4, 324 LBs | body of an RG – Chad Reuter
Durable AF. Versatility to play inside or outside
(Ranked 10th OT @ combine per next gen stats)
Miami needs an upgrade at guard, and while it was awfully...
