PFSN 3-Round Mock Draft has the Dolphins taking…

NFL.com Draft Profile

Overview

McCoy is a toolsy outside corner with CB1 flashes, but an ACL tear robbed him of a much-needed third season. Hips and feet are smooth, allowing for quality lateral transitions and efficient gathers to match hard-breaking curls. He’s athletic in his recoveries but average acceleration leaves him chasing too often on go routes. More focused, physical press disruption should make the rep easier to control. He’s opportunistic with strong ball skills at the catch point. His route squeeze and zone awareness should improve with more reps. We should expect McCoy’s athletic traits and instincts to help him make up for lost time once he gets into camp.

Strengths

• Former triple- and long-jumper with explosive lowers.
• Posted 16 passes defensed, including six interceptions, from 2023 to 2024.
• Patient in the early phases, allowing receivers to declare before opening.
• Quick, confident feet can match release and recover when beaten.
• Oily hips create fluid movement and change of direction in space.
• Has the size to become more imposing underneath.
• Shows ability to gather and redirect when matching comebacks.
• Doesn’t guard grass and will look to overlap in zone coverages.
• Engulfs wideouts at catch point for fast finishes or pass breakups.

Weaknesses

• Struggles to stay in phase against speedy route benders.
• Loses poise and will grab when the rep becomes challenging.
• Needs better physicality to suffocate work space on verticals.
• Displays some indecision on zone switch-offs.
• More drag-down tackler than full-body hitter.
• Missed 2025 season with ACL tear.

Round 2, Pick #43: Kadyn Proctor, OT/G, Alabama

“Building a stronger foundation in the trenches could lead the Miami Dolphins to target Kadyn Proctor, a powerful offensive lineman with the tools to contribute early. He plays with a firm anchor in pass protection, allowing him to absorb bull rushes and keep the pocket stable. In the run game, his leverage and heavy hands help him drive defenders off the ball and open lanes for ball carriers.”

NFL.com Draft Profile

Overview

Proctor is a mass of humanity with rare size and length at his command. He’s capable as a move blocker but shines when rolling downhill as a bona-fide people mover with bulldozing power. However, slants and quick first steps beat him to the spot in the run game. When set and centered, Proctor is a roadblock to speed-to-power charges. He has a stout anchor and strong hands to stall the rush in its track. He struggles to mirror athletes in space and lacks the range to protect deeper pocket drops against speed. Inconsistency in pass protection hasn’t helped his draft standing, but he still has the potential to become a good right tackle or very good guard.

Strengths

• Massive frame with good length.
• Big knock-back pop when accelerating into contact.
• Down blocks and double teams can empty the gap.
• Captures and seals outside edge with upper-body power.
• Adequate early quickness to execute move blocks.
• Able to cover and engulf his second-level targets.
• Settles into pass reps with adequate hand timing.
• Power rushers need to pack a lunch against him.
• Rush plans are stifled when he centers his contact.
• Has hand strength to lock in and control the action.

Weaknesses

• Indecisive and inefficient when defender isn’t in front of him.
• Cross-faced by slants and short-area movement.
• Does too much catching and not enough punching.
• Early gate opener with weight drifting too far outside.
• Struggled staying mirrored to inside moves and counters.
• Limited pass-set range will limit quarterback’s drop depth.
• Needs to stabilize playing weight to dial in balance/quickness.

Round 3, Pick #75: Elijah Sarratt, WR, Indiana

NFL.com Draft Profile

Big receiver whose competitiveness and elite catch-phase execution allow him to overcome his athletic limitations. While he’s nicknamed “Waffle House” because he’s said to be “always open,” Sarratt sees a high number of contested targets versus man coverage. He’s tight-hipped with below-average foot quickness and falls below the line as a separator. Once the throw goes up, however, he consistently beats corners with size, body control and catch-space strength to clean up. He’ll face press matchups that leave his catch column dry, but he’s built and wired for possession targets over the first two levels.

Strengths

• Torched Oregon twice last season, posting 15 catches for 196 yards and three TDs against the Ducks.
• Rugged and urgent when battling against physical coverage.
• Disciplined route-running disguises his route intentions.
• Speed changes and crisp cuts create space at route breaks.
• Uses big frame and catch-space strength to dominate 50/50s.
• Dominated back-shoulder balls and slot fades.
• Tough to bring him down with the ball in his hands.
• Deadens legs and dots feet inbounds at the boundary.

Weaknesses

• Tight strider with below-average release quickness.
• Will find blockades against stronger NFL press.
• Noticeable loss of speed through stems and turns.
• Downfield routes are easily phased by good man coverage.
• Lacks second gear to run under a deep throw.
• Labors opening hips and makes reactive, off-frame catches.

Round 3, Pick #87: Carson Beck, QB, Miami (FL)

NFL.com Draft Profile

Overview

Three-year starter who has weathered his share of ups and downs. Beck has NFL-caliber size and a lot of experience playing in high-leverage games. He recovered from 2024 UCL surgery on his throwing elbow, but he appeared to lose some drive velocity on deep balls and move throws. He works through progressions at a good pace and can throw with anticipation, but he loses track of safeties, throwing into hazardous spots. Beck’s decision-making showed more maturity in his final college season, but pressure can pull him back into old habits. He spins a catchable ball with a compact release, but spotty accuracy leads to pass breakups and a lower conversion rate on tight-window throws. Beck projects as a good backup with the potential to earn a starting job down the road, but he must continue developing game-managing instincts.

Strengths

• Three-year starter with good size.
• Works through progressions, routinely getting to his third read.
• Ready to cut it loose when the window opens.
• Release is compact and quick enough.
• Delivers a catchable ball with tight spin.
• Looks like a different quarterback once he finds his rhythm.
• Athletic enough to escape the pocket and outrun pursuit to the sticks.

Weaknesses

• Arm talent and velocity appear diminished post-2024 UCL surgery.
• Pressure rattles his decision-making process.
• Too often loses track of safeties sitting over the top.
• Deep balls and move throws lose too much energy.
• Struggled with touch and feel on layered throws.
• Bad things tend to happen when he’s forced to reset his feet.
• High number of batted passes for his height and release-point.

Round 3, Pick #90: Isaiah World, OT, Oregon

NFL.com Draft Profile

Overview

Big, long tackle with heavy hands but sloppy technique that limits his consistency. World is a high-character player who did a decent job of working around his limitations during his college career. His first contact, whether engaging run blocks or throwing his punch, is firm and purposeful. Elements of his run blocking will translate to the league despite an elevated pad level but his pass protection is filled with holes and requires immediate attention. If he can cut back on quick losses, World has a chance to become an average swing tackle.

Strengths

• Extensive game experience as a four-year starter.
• Operates with heavy hands in run and pass blocking.
• Displays ability to adjust and connect to movement in space.
• Independent hands help create contact with rush.
• Rifles a very stiff left jab into rusher with ideal timing.
• Uses length to redirect rusher outside intended rush path.

Weaknesses

• Tight-hipped with high pads and narrow base.
• Gets beat inside due to oversetting.
• Footwork and recoveries are messy at times.
• Feet and hands lack harmony and lead to lunging.
• Sloppy hand placement prevents ideal block control.
• Lack of fluidity diminishes timing for combo blocks.
