The Dolphins let Reid fall into their laps, and walked away with a B. Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Dolphins were there to profit. Karene Reid, the No. 191 name on the board, should have been long gone before the Round 7 slot. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.
They will need Caldwell to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. A small leak at the table, if not a fatal one.
The hoard sets up next April more than it helps this September.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick22
Rnd1
Malaki Starks
In the 22nd overall pick they get a two-high chess piece at a price that makes it sweeter.
Pick48
Rnd2
Tyler Warren
They robbed the room for Tyler Warren here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick86
Rnd3
Tate Ratledge
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Tate Ratledge at Round 3, Pick 22 is the proof. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick98
Rnd3
Dylan Fairchild
A slide stopped in the 98th pick, with Dylan Fairchild worth more than the price. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick115
Rnd4
Quinshon Judkins
The board fumbled Quinshon Judkins all the way to pick 115, and they scooped it up. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick123
Rnd4
Jack Bech
Circle this one: Jack Bech at slot 123 is a fall that decides a draft. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick133
Rnd4
Jake Majors
Taking Jake Majors in No. 133 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick149
Rnd5
Lathan Ransom
They will replay Lathan Ransom at the Round 5 slot for years; that is how good the value is. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick154
Rnd5
Cobee Bryant
They talked themselves into Cobee Bryant at slot 154, and the board did not agree. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick224
Rnd7
Thor Griffith
A big swing on Thor Griffith at the Round 7 slot, well ahead of any board in the building. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick231
Rnd7
Jamaree Caldwell
A real head-scratcher, Jamaree Caldwell in Round 7, Pick 15 is miles ahead of his ranking. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick252
Rnd7
Karene Reid
They barely believed it either: Karene Reid still on the board at pick 252. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
