About this episode

Omar Kelly discusses the Dolphins' draft decisions and the new front office approach emphasizing physicality and athletic traits.

Hollywood is joined by Omar Kelly to revisit the Dolphins’ first-round draft decision that sparked fan backlash after Miami passed on Reuben Bain and selected Kadyn Proctor. Omar explains that this reflects a new front office approach, emphasizing size, physicality, and athletic traits over public perception or media pressure. He notes that both players will likely be compared throughout their careers, but insists the Dolphins targeted Proctor all along and were confident in their evaluation. The segment also highlights Miami’s decision to trade back in the first round to accumulate additional assets, showing a clear organizational strategy rather than reacting to outside noise.
