Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Dolphins won the night they stopped Stockton from sliding. Grade: B-.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Dolphins were there to profit. Gunner Stockton, the No. 203 name on the board, should have been long gone before the 227th overall pick.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up. They are betting Pavia proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Kadyn Proctor
They took Kadyn Proctor at par in Round 1, Pick 11, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick43 Rnd2 Dillon Thieneman
Dillon Thieneman in the Round 2 slot is fair value, right on his grade. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick75 Rnd3 Diego Pavia
They paid up for Diego Pavia at the 75th overall pick when waiting would have done the job. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick87 Rnd3 Emmett Johnson
Emmett Johnson at slot 87 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The roster fit checks out.
Pick90 Rnd3 Darrell Jackson Jr.
A straight-up fair deal on Darrell Jackson Jr. at pick 90, value and slot in agreement. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick111 Rnd4 Jack Endries
They read the board right and Jack Endries was the payoff at pick No. 111. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick149 Rnd5 Jaden Greathouse
Value with a capital V on Jaden Greathouse in the 149th pick, a genuine coup. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick227 Rnd7 Gunner Stockton
Gunner Stockton in No. 227 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
