Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall C+
ValueC NeedB TradesC+ FutureB-
The jury is out on the Dolphins. For now, C+.

The Dolphins torched the value chart for Jonah Elliss, taking him 35 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

It nets out as a middle-of-the-pack haul that neither helps nor hurts much.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Jordan Morgan
In pick No. 31 they get a long-term starter on the line. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick55 Rnd2 Jonah Elliss
They left a pile of value on the table to take Jonah Elliss this early at the Round 2 slot. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick94 Rnd3 Mekhi Wingo
A premium they did not need to pay, Mekhi Wingo a notch or two before his time. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick124 Rnd4 Kitan Oladapo
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Kitan Oladapo well ahead of where he belonged. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick158 Rnd5 Dwight McGlothern
By-the-book stuff, Dwight McGlothern at the 158th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick184 Rnd6 Tahj Washington
Tahj Washington at Round 6, Pick 9 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick198 Rnd6 Drake Nugent
Drake Nugent in the 198th pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick241 Rnd7 Josh Proctor
Josh Proctor in pick 241 is fair value, right on his grade. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
