Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall A-
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesA+ FutureA+
The Dolphins turned the phones into found money: A-.

Some picks age like wine; Eric Gentry at the 227th overall pick will need to, sitting 128 spots clear of his grade.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. Lew falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. The imported veterans give this class a floor the draft picks could not on their own.

Bottom line, they left the weekend a clearly better team, and they earned every bit of it.

Pick Analysis
Pick47 Rnd2 Chase Bisontis
A wild overpay on Chase Bisontis in No. 47, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick63 Rnd2 Anthony Hill Jr.
Anthony Hill Jr. at slot 63 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick74 Rnd3 Omar Cooper Jr.
A wide receiver of that caliber at the 74th overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick75 Rnd3 Emmanuel McNeil-Warren
Emmanuel McNeil-Warren at the Round 3 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick87 Rnd3 Keionte Scott
Circle this one: Keionte Scott at Round 3, Pick 23 is a fall that decides a draft. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick95 Rnd3 Connor Lew
Connor Lew in the 95th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick111 Rnd4 Michael Trigg
A clean, defensible pick in pick 111 with a little surplus value in Michael Trigg. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick130 Rnd4 Eli Raridon
They took Eli Raridon at par in the Round 4 slot, which is nothing to complain about. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick131 Rnd4 Bryce Lance
Nice patience on Bryce Lance, who had no business lasting to No. 131. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick146 Rnd5 Drew Allar
Drew Allar at the 146th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick149 Rnd5 Demond Claiborne
Demond Claiborne in the 149th pick is fair value, right on his grade. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick151 Rnd5 Jalen Farmer
No edge and no loss on Jalen Farmer in Round 5, Pick 11; it is a wash and a sensible one. The roster fit checks out.
Pick168 Rnd5 Domani Jackson
Domani Jackson in pick No. 168 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick176 Rnd5 Marlin Klein
No drama and no debate, Marlin Klein went about where he belonged in slot 176. It fills a real need, too.
Pick189 Rnd6 Ted Hurst
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Ted Hurst in the Round 6 slot. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick197 Rnd6 Zxavian Harris
Value said wait; Zxavian Harris in pick 197 says they were not listening. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick206 Rnd6 Jeff Caldwell
Jeff Caldwell in No. 206 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick226 Rnd7 Raylen Wilson
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Raylen Wilson. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick227 Rnd7 Eric Gentry
Eric Gentry at Round 7, Pick 11 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick238 Rnd7 Marvin Jones Jr.
Marvin Jones Jr. at slot 238 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick246 Rnd7 Keaten Wade
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Keaten Wade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick248 Rnd7 Logan Taylor
Logan Taylor in the 248th overall pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
