Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Dolphins, and a B- to prove it.

Nobody else had Andrew Raym anywhere near slot 198. The Dolphins did, by 41 spots, and that gap is the whole story. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. They will answer for taking OLB-EDGE early while quarterback, tight end and other spots went begging.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Jordan Morgan
In Round 1, Pick 31 they get protection for the quarterback at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick55 Rnd2 Braden Fiske
A straight-up fair deal on Braden Fiske at pick No. 55, value and slot in agreement. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick94 Rnd3 Javon Solomon
A surprising call. With quarterback, tight end and other spots still to address, they spent slot 94 on Javon Solomon, an OLB-EDGE they were not short of.
Pick124 Rnd4 Tykee Smith
A wild overpay on Tykee Smith in the 124th pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick158 Rnd5 Khristian Boyd
Khristian Boyd at the 158th overall pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick176 Rnd6 Malik Mustapha
Malik Mustapha in No. 176 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick184 Rnd6 Tahj Washington
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Tahj Washington. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick198 Rnd6 Andrew Raym
Value said wait; Andrew Raym in pick 198 says they were not listening. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick241 Rnd7 Miyan Williams
They paid up for Miyan Williams at the Round 7 slot when waiting would have done the job. It fills a real need, too.
