FutureA+
Good, not great, for the Dolphins: B+. The tape said wait; the Dolphins did not. Trinidad Chambliss went at slot 60, a good 56 picks before the board was ready.
However the rest shakes out, Scott at that price is a win they earned. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped running back, which is a strange place to end up. The Dolphins clearly valued win-now help, adding bodies who have done it before.
A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.
Pick Analysis
Pick60
Rnd2
Trinidad Chambliss
They left a pile of value on the table to take Trinidad Chambliss this early at Round 2, Pick 28. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick75
Rnd3
Derrick Moore
A big swing on Derrick Moore at pick No. 75, well ahead of any board in the building. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick78
Rnd3
Malachi Fields
Malachi Fields in the 78th overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick80
Rnd3
Omar Cooper Jr.
A straight-up fair deal on Omar Cooper Jr. at slot 80, value and slot in agreement. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick87
Rnd3
Malachi Lawrence
They talked themselves into Malachi Lawrence at the Round 3 slot, and the board did not agree. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick90
Rnd3
Keionte Scott
Keionte Scott at pick 90 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick111
Rnd4
Jaeden Roberts
No drama and no debate, Jaeden Roberts went about where he belonged in slot 111. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick115
Rnd4
Justin Joly
Justin Joly slipping to the 115th overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick126
Rnd4
Jakobe Thomas
By-the-book stuff, Jakobe Thomas at pick No. 126 squarely in line with his ranking. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick129
Rnd4
Ted Hurst
A conviction pick on Ted Hurst at Round 4, Pick 29 that the board grades a round light. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick195
Rnd6
Jalon Daniels
Fair-plus on Jalon Daniels, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick227
Rnd7
Kamran James
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Kamran James. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick231
Rnd7
Jordan Hall
Jordan Hall at the Round 7 slot is a conviction pick that outran the value. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick249
Rnd7
Micah Morris
A reasonable price with a little left over, Micah Morris in the 249th pick. A need, and now a little less of one.
