Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall
D-
ValueC+
NeedB
TradesF
FutureB-
A costly weekend of dealing drags the Dolphins to a D-. When the story of this class is written, it opens with DeWayne Carter at the 65th overall pick, a reach of 37 spots that the board flatly disagrees with. It grades a D-, and the process earned it.
Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.
Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, edge rusher very much included.
Pick Analysis
Pick24
Rnd1
Graham Barton
In Round 1, Pick 24 they get a blindside protector at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick55
Rnd2
Payton Wilson
No edge and no loss on Payton Wilson in No. 55; it is a wash and a sensible one. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick65
Rnd3
DeWayne Carter
They reached a country mile for DeWayne Carter at pick No. 65, and the board is aghast. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick104
Rnd4
Chau Smith-Wade
A real head-scratcher, Chau Smith-Wade in the 104th pick is miles ahead of his ranking. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick158
Rnd5
Tanor Bortolini
Tanor Bortolini at slot 158 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It fills a real need, too.
Pick184
Rnd6
Kendall Milton
A conviction pick on Kendall Milton at the Round 6 slot that the board grades a round light. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick198
Rnd6
Tahj Washington
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Tahj Washington at pick 198 is the proof. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick233
Rnd7
Sam Hartman
Sam Hartman at pick No. 233 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
