Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B+
ValueB+ NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
Grand theft in pick 87: the Dolphins steal Thieneman and grade out a B+.

Thirty-one other rooms let Dillon Thieneman slide, and the Dolphins were the ones holding the card at Round 3, Pick 23. Highway robbery.

They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want.

The Coogan reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Spencer Fano
In pick No. 11 they get a cornerstone up front. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick47 Rnd2 Kayden McDonald
Kayden McDonald in the 47th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick75 Rnd3 Emmanuel Pregnon
They robbed the room for Emmanuel Pregnon here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick87 Rnd3 Dillon Thieneman
The board fumbled Dillon Thieneman all the way to slot 87, and they scooped it up. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick90 Rnd3 Malachi Fields
Malachi Fields slipping to Round 3, Pick 26 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick111 Rnd4 Skyler Bell
Skyler Bell at the 111th overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick149 Rnd5 Pat Coogan
They left a pile of value on the table to take Pat Coogan this early at the Round 5 slot. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick227 Rnd7 Will Kacmarek
Will Kacmarek at pick 227 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
