Miami Dolphins build for future, so who's the pick in 2027 NFL draft?
With a full-fledge rebuild underway with the Miami Dolphins, the 2027 NFL Draft could bring about their next franchise player.
As the NFL regular season approaches, fans and analysts turn to mock drafts for a glimpse into the upcoming draft. USA TODAY s Michael Middlehurst-Schwartz has crafted a draft for the Miami Dolphins, a team currently undergoing a full rebuild. The No. 2 overall pick in this draft is Ohio State wide receiver Jeremiah Smith, a Miami Gardens native who starred at Chaminade-Madonna High School.
With the Dolphins' roster changes, Smith would make for a fitting homecoming. However, quarterbacking the Dolphins could prove challenging due to the team's current lack of talented passers. The New York Jets, with their solid roster, may opt for a quarterback early in the draft. Meanwhile, Miami Hurricanes quarterback Darian Mensah, a transfer from Duke, is projected to be taken by the New York Jets at No. 8 overall.
The Jacksonville Jaguars are expected to select Oklahoma defensive tackle David Stone at No. 17, while the Tampa Bay Buccaneers will draft LSU tight end Trey Dez Green at pick 18. Finally, the Houston Texans will choose Florida running back Jadan Baugh at No. 30.
