Raheem Mostert welcomed a new running back to Miami last year when the Dolphins drafter De'Von Achane and he responded to it by running for 1,012 yards and scoring 21 total touchdowns.

The Dolphins added Tennessee RB Jaylen Wright in Round 4. Wright is one of the most explosive RBs in this year s class. He averaged 6.2 yards per carry over his three college seasons, including a huge 7.4 yards per carry in 2023. 14.0% of Wright s runs last year went for 15+ yards the second-highest rate among this year s top-25 RB prospects. So it wasn t a big surprise when he blazed a 4.38-second 40 time at 5 11 and 210 pounds. Wright isn t just a pure speed back, though. He runs with plenty of power, averaging 4.35 yards after contact per attempt last year fifth among 157 qualifying RBs. Wright played in a spread offense at Tennessee that afforded him some huge running lanes. He ll have a transition to make to his NFL scheme. But his combination of size, explosiveness, and long speed can t be taught. Wright also proved capable in the passing game this past year, catching 22 balls for 141 yards. We see a lot of Lamar Miller in his game. Wright adds more speed to an explosive Dolphins offense, although he ll be challenged to find playing time behind De Von Achane and Raheem Mostert. Mostert recently inked an extension that keeps him in Miami through the 2025 season.
