Grand theft in Round 3, Pick 23: the Dolphins steal Everette and grade out a B-.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Dolphins were there to profit. Daylen Everette, the No. 66 name on the board, should have been long gone before slot 87. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. The cost of the Cooper Jr. reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Caleb Downs
In the 11th pick they get a ballhawk on the back end, and a steal at that. Need was not the driver here.
Pick43 Rnd2 Sonny Styles
Sonny Styles at pick No. 43 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick75 Rnd3 Omar Cooper Jr.
The board had cheaper options than Omar Cooper Jr. at the 75th overall pick, and it noticed. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick87 Rnd3 Daylen Everette
Daylen Everette at pick 87 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick91 Rnd3 Austin Barber
A reasonable price with a little left over, Austin Barber in the Round 3 slot. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick111 Rnd4 Cade Klubnik
They let Cade Klubnik come to them and pounced at No. 111. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick149 Rnd5 J.C. Davis
J.C. Davis in slot 149 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It fills a real need, too.
Pick227 Rnd7 Josh Cuevas
They jumped the gun on Josh Cuevas, taking him earlier than his grade liked. The roster fit checks out.
