The Miami Dolphins will enter the 2025 draft with a total of 10 picks, including three compensatory selections. The NFL's management council recently corrected a miscalculation that had mistakenly awarded the team an extra seventh-round pick. The Dolphins now hold one third-round compensatory pick, one fourth-round pick, and one seventh-round pick due to player movements during the offseason.

Compensatory picks are determined based on free agent losses and additions, and in this case, the Dolphins lost key players like guard Robert Hunt to the Carolina Panthers and defensive tackle Christian Wilkins to the Las Vegas Raiders. As a result, the Dolphins have managed to retain a strategic advantage despite the loss of some depth.

With an emphasis on rebuilding and strengthening their roster, Miami needs to utilize these picks wisely. The adjustments in draft capital reflect the ongoing evolution of their team strategy and depth chart planning.
