Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall C+
ValueB NeedB- TradesF FutureA+
The Dolphins cashed the board's mistake on Singleton: C+.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Dolphins watched Nicholas Singleton slide 145 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. For now it grades a C+, with the swing picks left to settle the rest.

Every board in the league had Jefferson lower, and that gap is the story. The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

The verdict is a shrug for now, with the swing picks left to write the real ending.

Pick Analysis
Pick48 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
Malaki Starks in pick 48 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick99 Rnd3 Luke Kandra
A reach on Luke Kandra in the 99th pick; the board had better options right there. It fills a real need, too.
Pick104 Rnd4 Rylie Mills
Rylie Mills at slot 104 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick115 Rnd4 Deontae Lawson
The board fumbled Deontae Lawson all the way to pick No. 115, and they scooped it up. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick134 Rnd4 DeMonte Capehart
They left a pile of value on the table to take DeMonte Capehart this early at the Round 4 slot. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick149 Rnd5 Xavier Scott
They liked Xavier Scott enough to skip the value, taking him in No. 149. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick153 Rnd5 Barrett Carter
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Barrett Carter in the 153rd overall pick, plain and simple. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick156 Rnd5 Carson Vinson
Carson Vinson in Round 5, Pick 19 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick219 Rnd7 Roc Taylor
Roc Taylor at the 219th pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick224 Rnd7 Thor Griffith
A big swing on Thor Griffith at No. 224, well ahead of any board in the building. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick231 Rnd7 KJ Jefferson
A real head-scratcher, KJ Jefferson in pick 231 is miles ahead of his ranking. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick245 Rnd7 Nicholas Singleton
Nicholas Singleton in slot 245 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick251 Rnd7 Upton Stout
Upton Stout at the Round 7 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
