The Dolphins land in the muddy middle: C.

The Quinn Carroll selection is the head-turner. The Dolphins reached 260 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered.

On value alone, Skattebo makes the weekend a net positive. The Sauls pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with edge rusher, interior defensive lineman and other spots still on the board. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Not a disaster, not a triumph, just a middling class.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Luther Burden III
Luther Burden III in pick No. 13 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick48 Rnd2 Quinn Carroll
Value said wait; Quinn Carroll in the Round 2 slot says they were not listening. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick98 Rnd3 Jalen Milroe
Jalen Milroe at the 98th pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick116 Rnd4 Alijah Huzzie
Alijah Huzzie in Round 4, Pick 14 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick135 Rnd4 Ben Sauls
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending pick 135 on Ben Sauls with edge rusher, interior defensive lineman and other spots unsolved.
Pick150 Rnd5 Luke Elzinga
They talked themselves into Luke Elzinga at the 150th overall pick, and the board did not agree. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick155 Rnd5 Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo in slot 155 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick224 Rnd7 Jamon Dumas-Johnson
A real head-scratcher, Jamon Dumas-Johnson in the 224th overall pick is miles ahead of his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick231 Rnd7 Malik Verdon
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Malik Verdon well ahead of where he belonged. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick253 Rnd7 Dominic Lovett
They left a pile of value on the table to take Dominic Lovett this early at the Round 7 slot. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
