The 2026 NFL draft is sure to be an exciting one for the dolphins,

and it could get even more exciting if John Eric Sullivan decides to go a little crazy.

You are Locked-on Dolphins, your daily Miami Dolphins podcast, part of the Locked-on Podcast Network, your team every day. All right, Miami. Welcome to another episode of Locked on Dolphins. It is your team every day here on the Lockdown Network. I'm your host, Kyle Crabs, a lifelong Miami Dolphins fan, host of Lockedon Dolphins, co-host of Lockdown NFL scouting author of Touchdown, Miami on substack NFL staff writer for A to Z sports.

I want to give a special welcome to each and every one of our everydayers as we dive

into the trade down outlook for the dolphins in the first round.

I know we've talked about the 11th pick already and we'll start with some conditions,

not necessarily on the precedent of trading down from 11, but what conditions I think probably need to be met for the dolphins to entertain

that and then looking at pick 30 and the recent history of trades with the 30th overall pick

and one team in recent years who executed a series of trade downs and included the 30th overall pick in

their formula to help come up with a banger of a surplus of draft capital.

So we'll talk about all that here today on the show.

But we're going to start with conditions at pick number 11.

And the most recent trade down that happened from 11 came back in

2022 when the Saints traded up to 11 for Chris Olavay and the commanders moved down

from 11 to 16 and got the 98th and 120th overall picking the NFL trap.

So that's kind of set your expectations.

I'd be surprised if the dolphins punted and came all the way out, although maybe they might,

but I do think the first piece of a trade down for the dolphins is your perceived

blue chip top of the draft guys.

And their opinion is going to be their opinion.

And we're not going to know what their opinion is, right?

I think if they stick and pick, there's a pretty good chance at 11.
