Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall D
ValueB+ NeedB TradesF FutureA
Larceny in Round 4, Pick 30 lands the Dolphins a D, Lance and all.

There is conviction, and then there is this. The Dolphins took Caden Curry a full 36 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend.

They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. For all the activity, interior defensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain.

Landing Lance that late papers over a lot of smaller sins.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and interior defensive lineman is still a hole.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Jeremiyah Love
In slot 18 they get a centerpiece for the ground game, and a steal at that.
Pick30 Rnd1 Olaivavega Ioane
In pick No. 30 they get a building block for the line, outstanding value to boot. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick32 Rnd1 Sonny Styles
Sonny Styles in the 32nd overall pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick43 Rnd2 Dillon Thieneman
Dillon Thieneman slipping to No. 43 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick87 Rnd3 Keionte Scott
Keionte Scott at the 87th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick90 Rnd3 Sam Roush
Sam Roush at slot 90 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It fills a real need, too.
Pick92 Rnd3 Ted Hurst
Nothing to complain about; Ted Hurst went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick94 Rnd3 Caden Curry
Caden Curry at the Round 3 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick130 Rnd4 Bryce Lance
They barely believed it either: Bryce Lance still on the board at the 130th pick. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick151 Rnd5 Beau Stephens
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Beau Stephens. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick152 Rnd5 Charles Demmings
They did well to land Charles Demmings in pick 152, just ahead of his grade. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick188 Rnd6 Cole Payton
A reach for Cole Payton in pick No. 188; a little patience would have been rewarded. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick227 Rnd7 Jadon Canady
The board had Jadon Canady higher than the 227th pick, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick238 Rnd7 Trey Zuhn III
They liked Trey Zuhn III enough to skip the value, taking him in pick 238. A need, and now a little less of one.
