When you watch Coleman move, separate like Davone Bess once did in the Dolphins offense, it becomes clear that juice is definitely worth

squeezing. That’s why I’m predicting his slot savvy and knack for creating separation is what will make him the rookie receiver who contributes the most for the Dolphins in 2026. Because Coleman has worked exclusively as a slot receiver during his collegiate career, and has been required to learn four different offenses in four seasons, it’s possible he could have a leg up on the competition. Slot receiver is typically a universal position that features plenty of crossover because most of the time the Wes Welker, Bess, Jarvis Landry types are running option routes, which simply require they escape the coverage of the nickel cornerback, and/or drop into open zones in a defense’s coverage.

That’s why I’m predicting his slot savvy and knack for creating separation is what will make him the rookie receiver who contributes the most for the Dolphins in 2026. “[He’s] just a playmaker, has a great feel for the game,” said Matt Winston, the Dolphins’ director of college scouting. “A little more undersized than some of the other receivers we’ve taken, but very tough. Has a great feel for route running, spatial awareness.” Because Coleman has worked exclusively as a slot receiver during his collegiate career, and has been required to learn four different offenses in four seasons, it’s possible he could have a leg up on the competition.
