The Miami Dolphins kicked off their 2024 NFL Draft campaign by selecting EDGE Chop Robinson out of Penn State with the No. 21 overall pick. Robinson brings a compelling combination of physical traits to the Dolphins’ pass-rush rotation, despite not racking up high sack numbers during his collegiate career.
Robinson’s arrival bolsters Miami’s depth at the outside linebacker position, providing an intriguing rotational option alongside established starters Jaelan Phillips and Bradley Chubb. While he may not immediately step into a starting role, Robinson’s presence adds valuable depth and potential impact to the Dolphins’ defensive lineup.
Coach Mike McDaniel expressed enthusiasm for Robinson’s potential, highlighting his powerful first step and the role he’s expected to play in the Dolphins’ defensive scheme.
Looking ahead, the Dolphins are set to make five more picks in this year’s draft, beginning with the No. 55 overall selection in the second round. With various needs still to address, including potentially filling the right guard position, Miami aims to capitalize on its remaining picks to strengthen its roster for the upcoming season.
The Dolphins’ subsequent picks include:
- Round 2: No. 55
- Round 5: No. 158
- Round 6: No. 184 (from Chicago)
- Round 6: No. 198
- Round 7: No. 241
