Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall A-
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureA
The Dolphins cashed the board's mistake on Haulcy: A-.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Dolphins watched A.J. Haulcy slide 34 picks past his grade and did not hesitate.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. Every board in the league had Robertson lower, and that gap is the story.

A whole weekend of picks and tight end is somehow still a want.

Bottom line, with Olaivavega Ioane leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.

Pick Analysis
Pick43 Rnd2 Olaivavega Ioane
They did well to land Olaivavega Ioane in pick No. 43, just ahead of his grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick47 Rnd2 Caleb Banks
Caleb Banks in the 47th pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick75 Rnd3 Connor Lew
The board had Connor Lew higher than the Round 3 slot, and the offensive lineman fell to them anyway. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick78 Rnd3 Darrell Jackson Jr.
Darrell Jackson Jr. at pick 78 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick87 Rnd3 Jacob Rodriguez
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jacob Rodriguez. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick90 Rnd3 A.J. Haulcy
A.J. Haulcy at No. 90 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick111 Rnd4 Tim Keenan III
This one needs a full-page explanation: Tim Keenan III in Round 4, Pick 11, miles early. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick149 Rnd5 Sawyer Robertson
Sawyer Robertson at the 149th overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick227 Rnd7 Colbie Young
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Colbie Young well ahead of where he belonged. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
