Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall C+
ValueD+ NeedB TradesC+ FutureB-
The Dolphins landed square in the muddy middle: C+.

There is conviction, and then there is this. The Dolphins took Tahj Washington a full 140 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend. Call it a C+ and check back in two years.

Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Oladapo at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. They went 6 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

It grades out a shrug today, with plenty of room to move either way.

Pick Analysis
Pick35 Rnd2 Troy Fautanu
Troy Fautanu at slot 35 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. The roster fit checks out.
Pick53 Rnd2 Sedrick Van Pran
They talked themselves into Sedrick Van Pran at Round 2, Pick 21, and the board did not agree. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick90 Rnd3 Ben Sinnott
Ben Sinnott at No. 90 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick105 Rnd4 Grayson Murphy
Grayson Murphy in the 105th overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick155 Rnd5 Gabe Hall
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Gabe Hall. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick186 Rnd6 Kitan Oladapo
A quiet steal in the 186th pick: Kitan Oladapo for less than the market said. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick199 Rnd6 Michael Barrett
Michael Barrett in the Round 6 slot is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick239 Rnd7 Tahj Washington
Tahj Washington at No. 239 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
