With the No. 130 overall pick in the 2026 NFL draft, the Miami Dolphins<\/a> have selected Texas Longhorns edge defender Trey Moore. Miami\u2019s got a busy day scheduled for draft selections and they get things started with a pick at a position that general manager Jon-Eric Sullivan lamented not getting tackled in the top-100. Sullivan said on Friday night that he needed to remind himself \u201c100 times\u201d that the Dolphins wouldn\u2019t get everything tackled in one weekend. But they do take a step towards reinforcing that position with the pick of Moore. <\/p>\n

Here\u2019s what you need to know about the pick and how Moore projects to the Miami Dolphins.<\/p>\n

Career Projection:\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cTexas Longhorns edge defender Trey Moore brings some desired versatility on the edge. He\u2019s got the ability to play shallow zone drops thanks to a compact build, fluidity, and low center of gravity. But he\u2019s been productive as a pass rusher at both UTSA and Texas \u2014\u00a0he broke Marcus Davenport\u2019s UTSA program record for single season tackles for loss (18) and then broke the school record for sacks in 2023 (14). <\/p>\n

The production waned a bit with a leap in level of competition to Texas but Moore was able to showcase versatility that will likely give him a chance to play in the NFL. Moore dabbled in off-ball responsibilities as well \u2014\u00a0he\u2019s got a few pathways to stick. <\/p>\n

Grading the Miami Dolphins selection of EDGE Trey Moore<\/p>\n

The connection shouldn\u2019t be that much of a surprise, as Sullivan was in Green Bay last year when the Packers drafted Moore\u2019s old teammate, Barryn Sorrell in the 4th round of the 2026 NFL Draft. Moore isn\u2019t as big \u2014 but for Miami\u2019s hybrid rush room, Moore will get a chance to compete. He\u2019s got a good bag of pass rush moves and has enough functional athleticism to test the edges. <\/p>\n

Miami needs all the competition they can get. <\/p>\n

Grade: B+
