Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall F
ValueB- NeedB- TradesF FutureF
A weekend the Dolphins spent fighting the board, and losing. F.

The Dolphins looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Nadame Tucker at pick No. 122 regardless, 47 picks early.

They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. They will answer for taking cornerback early while quarterback, running back and other spots went begging.

They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. Spend now, pay later; the math only works if this class delivers.

About as rough as a weekend gets on paper, with quarterback still staring back at them.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Mansoor Delane
In slot 11 they get a press-man option on the boundary. More want than need.
Pick24 Rnd1 Olaivavega Ioane
In pick No. 24 they get a blindside protector at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick30 Rnd1 Dillon Thieneman
Dillon Thieneman at No. 30 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick39 Rnd2 Emmanuel Pregnon
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Emmanuel Pregnon. It fills a real need, too.
Pick54 Rnd2 Omar Cooper Jr.
By-the-book stuff, Omar Cooper Jr. at pick 54 squarely in line with his ranking. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick70 Rnd3 Keionte Scott
Of all the spots to shop, they chose cornerback. Keionte Scott in Round 3, Pick 6 leaves quarterback, running back and other spots for later.
Pick75 Rnd3 Domonique Orange
No drama and no debate, Domonique Orange went about where he belonged in pick No. 75. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick94 Rnd3 Sam Roush
A reasonable price with a little left over, Sam Roush in the 94th overall pick. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick98 Rnd3 CJ Daniels
A wild overpay on CJ Daniels in No. 98, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick108 Rnd4 J.C. Davis
J.C. Davis at Round 4, Pick 8 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick122 Rnd4 Nadame Tucker
Nadame Tucker at slot 122 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick153 Rnd5 Zxavian Harris
A clean, defensible pick in the 153rd pick with a little surplus value in Zxavian Harris. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
