Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall C+
ValueC- NeedB TradesD+ FutureA
A weekend that raised as many questions as it answered. The Dolphins get a C+.

The Dolphins clearly saw something nobody else did in Drew Allar, taking him 62 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced.

The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. Branch falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch.

Hit on Monroe Freeling and the swing picks, and this ages a lot better than it grades today.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Monroe Freeling
In No. 18 they get a building block for the line, reach and all. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick30 Rnd1 Dontay Corleone
In the Round 1 slot they get a run-stuffing presence up front, though the board says they badly overpaid. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick43 Rnd2 Max Iheanachor
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Max Iheanachor. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick75 Rnd3 Zachariah Branch
Zachariah Branch slid further than he should have, and pick No. 75 is lovely value for the wide receiver. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick87 Rnd3 Nicholas Singleton
A big swing on Nicholas Singleton at slot 87, well ahead of any board in the building. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick90 Rnd3 Harold Perkins Jr.
A real head-scratcher, Harold Perkins Jr. in the 90th overall pick is miles ahead of his ranking. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick94 Rnd3 Drew Allar
They reached into another round for Drew Allar, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick130 Rnd4 Parker Brailsford
They took Parker Brailsford at par in the 130th pick, which is nothing to complain about. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick151 Rnd5 CJ Daniels
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 151, where CJ Daniels graded well above the range. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick227 Rnd7 Isaiah Nwokobia
Isaiah Nwokobia at the 227th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick238 Rnd7 Robert Spears-Jennings
Robert Spears-Jennings at No. 238 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
