Draft Grade — Dolphins

FutureF
A weekend the Dolphins spent ahead of the board, for worse: F. It is the swing that defines the weekend: Will Kacmarek in pick No. 90, a good 229 spots before the room expected him.
They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain. They are betting the present roster is worth a lighter draft next spring.
On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.
The verdict is harsh because the weekend was, and there is little to argue.
Pick Analysis
Pick11
Rnd1
Kadyn Proctor
In Round 1, Pick 11 they get a blindside protector. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick30
Rnd1
Chris Johnson
In pick No. 30 they get an island corner at fair value. Need was not the driver here.
Pick43
Rnd2
Jacob Rodriguez
A reach for Jacob Rodriguez in slot 43; a little patience would have been rewarded. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick44
Rnd2
Chris Bell
A tidy little value on Chris Bell in the 44th pick, a step better than break-even. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick45
Rnd2
Kyle Louis
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Kyle Louis well ahead of where he belonged. It fills a real need, too.
Pick46
Rnd2
Michael Taaffe
A big swing on Michael Taaffe at the Round 2 slot, well ahead of any board in the building. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick75
Rnd3
Caleb Douglas
Caleb Douglas at slot 75 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick87
Rnd3
Kevin Coleman Jr.
They left a pile of value on the table to take Kevin Coleman Jr. this early at pick No. 87. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick90
Rnd3
Will Kacmarek
They talked themselves into Will Kacmarek at Round 3, Pick 26, and the board did not agree. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick94
Rnd3
Trey Moore
They reached into another round for Trey Moore, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick130
Rnd4
Matthew Hibner
A wild overpay on Matthew Hibner in the 130th overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick151
Rnd5
Khalil Dinkins
This one needs a full-page explanation: Khalil Dinkins in the 151st pick, miles early. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
