Dolphins' Ryan Hayes: Headed to South Beach
Rotowire
The Dolphins selected Hayes in the seventh round of the 2023 NFL Draft, 238th overall.

He is regarded as an intelligent blocker, but he's undersized and lacks the required strength to be a starter as a result. Nevertheless, he should provide valuable depth for the Dolphins.
