Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesD+ FutureA
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Dolphins.

Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Dolphins spent No. 87 on Jaeden Roberts, a name most had 28 spots down the list.

For all the activity, interior defensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain. On value alone, Reese makes the weekend a net positive.

It is a bet on later, and a defensible one for a team playing the long game.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In the Round 1 slot they get a downhill thumper at linebacker at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
Pick43 Rnd2 Olaivavega Ioane
A clean, defensible pick in pick No. 43 with a little surplus value in Olaivavega Ioane. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick75 Rnd3 Malachi Fields
No drama and no debate, Malachi Fields went about where he belonged in the 75th pick. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick87 Rnd3 Jaeden Roberts
A wild overpay on Jaeden Roberts in the 87th overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick90 Rnd3 Chase Bisontis
Chase Bisontis at Round 3, Pick 26 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick111 Rnd4 Malachi Lawrence
Malachi Lawrence in No. 111 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick149 Rnd5 Taylen Green
A reach for Taylen Green in Round 5, Pick 11; a little patience would have been rewarded. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
