Dolphins traded back with the Cowboys to select Alabama OT Kadyn Proctor with the No. 12 overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft.

In addition to the No. 12 overall pick, the Dolphins also acquired the No. 177 and No. 180 overall picks from the Cowboys. Proctor (6’6"/352) anchored Alabama’s offensive line at left tackle in 2025, logging 901 snaps with 882 of them coming on the blindside and turning in his busiest collegiate season to date. He was notably sturdy in pass protection, allowing 21 pressures on 584 pass-block snaps with only 2 sacks attributed, translating to an 84.2 PFF pass-block grade and a solid 98.0 efficiency rating on traditional protections and 97.5 on true pass sets where Alabama asked him to win one-on-one. In the run game, Proctor paired that pass-proficiency with a mauling mentality, earning an 81.1 PFF run-block grade. Across all phases he was disciplined, committing just 2 penalties on the year and a modest 2.3% blown-block rate, helping stabilize an Alabama unit that had trouble running the ball. He checked out well athletically at the Combine with a 32.5” vertical (94th%) and 9.26 overall RAS score. The mammoth Proctor is rugged in the run game (0.6% blown run block rate), effective in pass pro, and the kind of reliable, high-volume anchor who has the traits to become a long term contributor, whether it is at guard or tackle.
