Texas safety Michael Taaffe has been selected by the Miami Dolphins with the No. 158 overall pick in the fifth round of the 2026 NFL Draft. The former walk-on turned All-American put together a storybook career in Austin over the course of five years. In all, Taaffe recorded 222 tackles, 9.5 tackles for a loss, three sacks, 21 pass breakups and seven interceptions, including a pair of picks in back-to-back years against Texas A&M fittingly enough. Taaffe started 36 games, appearing in 53 overall. He earned Second-Team AP All-American honors for his 2024 efforts. The Austin Westlake product opted to come back for one more season in 2025 to help Texas try and get back to the College Football Playoff. He’s the fifth Texas defensive back to be selected over the last three drafts, joining Malik Muhammad earlier in the day, Jahdae Barron and Andrew Mukuba in 2025, and Ryan Watts in 2024.

Yeaaaahhh..read the write-up on Devin Moore. More negatives than positives compared to Malik. Injured, bad hips, bad make-up speed; 3" taller but shorter arms, smaller hands, slower than Malik. Sounds like the standard Cowboys pick. No idea why teams passed on Muhammad but may they all regret it.

And now reunited with Michael Taaffe!

Taaffe to the Dolphins!!!

Comic book store called heroes and fantasies in San Antonio.

Crap , how in the hell did I end up on sheep humper site.?

My girl Katie is at the plate😍

Overvaluing our players’ draft stock is a rite of spring.

Where

Wow, good for him I wasn’t expecting him to go in the 4th!!

That doesn't seem to matter in this draft, Jeff. It's truly mindboggling to watch this unfold.

Jack Endries is either the best or second-best tight end left on the board.

Meet the one and only Ricky Williams today at a autograph signing, truly a day to remember. To bad I was only 5 months old when he was running towards the Heisman in 98 lol

We’re into the fifth round.

This I’ve been thinking this but didn’t want to say since some other sites fans are really protective and allow for no conversation even if it’s negative. The perception on the program has taken a toll ata least for sure with portal players how I’ll impact the rest is yet to be seen. A lot of teams are getting better while Texas has not and I don’t expect Texas to be top two in sec next year.

Congrats Malik!

🤙🏼🤘🏼

Reunited with QE3

A lot has been self inflicted. We are Texas! Actually like it.

I thought that was really bush league to remove the portal trio from that pic. Whoever did that is truly petty. Come on, we are Texas. That was a really weak move.

Just one pick after Rod

agreed...I've seen lot's of players nowhere near his level that played for a long time in the NFL. Not sure why he wasn't selected sooner, but he'll be very good at the NFL level. HOOKEM
