Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B
ValueB NeedA- TradesB- FutureB-
The Dolphins drew a line under the quarterback search with McCarthy: B.

The search is over. The Dolphins handed the keys to J.J. McCarthy, and the whole operation now runs on his development.

However the rest shakes out, Adams at that price is a win they earned. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through tight end.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 J.J. McCarthy
In No. 21 they get their guy under center for the next decade. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick57 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
Nice patience on Chris Braswell, who had no business lasting to the Round 2 slot. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick125 Rnd4 Josh Newton
Josh Newton in the 125th pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick158 Rnd5 Isaiah Adams
Isaiah Adams at pick 158 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick184 Rnd6 Jordan Jefferson
They took Jordan Jefferson at par in pick No. 184, which is nothing to complain about. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick198 Rnd6 Cornelius Johnson
Cornelius Johnson is a better player than slot 198 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick241 Rnd7 Dominique Hampton
A tidy little value on Dominique Hampton in the 241st overall pick, a step better than break-even. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
