This page lists all the 2026 NFL Signings for the Miami Dolphins. I’ve listed all of the NFL Free Agent Signing Grades here, which included the Signings. Because I’ve begun posting polls for the Signings, I thought it would make sense to list just the NFL Signings here, so archiving the voting would be easier.

🏈 2026 NFL Free Agent Signing Grades by Team (Synced 3.23.26)
- Total Signings: 5
- Average Grade: A- (90.4)
March 2026 – Signings
Dolphins sign WR Jalen Tolbert (1 year): B- Grade
signed on 3/13/2026
Jalen Tolbert was hyped up in fantasy circles as a potential tertiary option for Dak Prescott, but he never developed into that role. Tolbert was eventually by Ryan Flournoy, who became what everyone thought Tolbert would be. Tolbert is 27, so there’s still time for him, but it’s hard to feel very optimistic about his chances of transforming into a relevant receiver. This is a cheap 1-year contract, however, so it’s not like there’s any sort of downside.

Dolphins sign G/OT Jamaree Salyer (1 year): A Grade
signed on 3/13/2026
The Dolphins have maintained one of the worst offensive lines in the NFL recently. They’re tasked with fixing this issue to give Malik Willis the best chance of succeeding, so any upgrade is welcome.
Jamaree Salyer won’t move the needle too drastically, but he’s a very solid player to have on the blocking unit because he has shown that he can play both tackle and guard well. He’s also started 40 games in his caree, so his experience and versatility will be a huge boon for Willis and the Dolphins.

Dolphins sign DE Josh Uche (1 year): A Grade
signed on 3/11/2026
The Eagles obtained a pass rusher from Miami just prior to the trade deadline last season. Now, the Dolphins are returning the favor, claiming an edge rusher who played for the Eagles the previous year. The difference is that Miami was not kind enough to give Philadelphia a draft pick.
Then again, Josh Uche isn’t nearly as good as Jaelan Phillips. Uche is an effective rotational edge rusher, but he missed a chunk of the 2025 season with an injury. It remains to be seen if Uche can remain healthy, but the Dolphins aren’t taking a risk with this 1-year “prove it” deal. It’s all upside for them.

Dolphins re-sign TE Greg Dulcich (1 year, $3.25 million): A Grade
signed on 3/9/2026
I still would love to know what happened to Greg Dulcich in Denver. He had such a promising start to his career, but just vanished suddenly. Dulchich reemerged in Miami late last season with some nice performances while filling in for Darren Waller.
This is a great bargain for Dulcich. Sean Payton is probably scoffing at this contract, but Dulcich is a legitimate receiving threat who will help Malik Willis transition to Miami.

Dolphins sign QB Malik Willis (3 years, $67.5 million): A+ Grade
signed on 3/9/2026
This signing can’t have surprised anyone. The Dolphins hired a former Packer coach to be their new head coach and a former Packer front office person to be their new general manager, so they obviously signed a former Packer quarterback to be their new franchise signal-caller.
Malik Willis has been awesome in relief of “No Cookie” Jordan Love over the past couple of years, so he deserved another chance to start in the NFL. It’s fair to be skeptical because Willis has had six starts, but he’s been better than Love in his relief appearances. Even if he fails, the Dolphins didn’t exactly spend a huge sum on him. This is a great deal for Miami.
