Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall
C-
ValueC+
NeedB
TradesF
FutureB+
The Dolphins bled value on every deal, hence the C-. Nobody else had Zion Logue anywhere near the 224th pick. The Dolphins did, by 66 spots, and that gap is the whole story. Call it a C- and check back in two years.
Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took McCaffrey.
For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain.
It grades out a shrug today, with plenty of room to move either way.
Pick Analysis
Pick27
Rnd1
Graham Barton
In slot 27 they get a blindside protector. A real need, handled.
Pick55
Rnd2
Zach Frazier
No edge and no loss on Zach Frazier in the Round 2 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick75
Rnd3
DJ James
They liked DJ James enough to skip the value, taking him in the 75th pick. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick90
Rnd3
Gabriel Murphy
A straight-up fair deal on Gabriel Murphy at the 90th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick102
Rnd4
Cedric Gray
They left a pile of value on the table to take Cedric Gray this early at pick No. 102. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick143
Rnd5
Jacob Cowing
Jacob Cowing at Round 5, Pick 7 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick157
Rnd5
Kitan Oladapo
Kitan Oladapo in the Round 5 slot is fair value, right on his grade. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick165
Rnd5
Ty'Ron Hopper
They jumped the gun on Ty'Ron Hopper, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It fills a real need, too.
Pick186
Rnd6
Luke McCaffrey
Somehow Luke McCaffrey was still sitting there in Round 6, Pick 11, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick194
Rnd6
Kendall Milton
Nothing to complain about; Kendall Milton went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick200
Rnd6
Jaylan Ford
Jaylan Ford in pick No. 200 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick216
Rnd6
Javontae Jean-Baptiste
They paid a round early for Javontae Jean-Baptiste in No. 216, more than the board wanted. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick224
Rnd7
Zion Logue
Value said wait; Zion Logue in the 224th overall pick says they were not listening. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
