Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Larceny in the 173rd pick lands the Dolphins a B-, Newton and all.

Call it larceny. Josh Newton sat on the board until Round 5, Pick 37, and the Dolphins did not need to be asked twice.

If Rogers pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
Jackson Powers-Johnson in the 21st overall pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick64 Rnd2 Christian Haynes
Christian Haynes at the 64th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick95 Rnd3 Johnny Wilson
Johnny Wilson in Round 3, Pick 32 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick157 Rnd5 Justin Rogers
A big swing on Justin Rogers at slot 157, well ahead of any board in the building. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick173 Rnd5 Josh Newton
Josh Newton in pick No. 173 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick197 Rnd6 Nathan Thomas
They paid up for Nathan Thomas at No. 197 when waiting would have done the job. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick241 Rnd7 De'Corian Clark
They reached a country mile for De'Corian Clark at pick 241, and the board is aghast. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
