Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Dolphins: B-.

Some picks age like wine; Tykee Smith at slot 101 will need to, sitting 59 spots clear of his grade.

The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. However the rest shakes out, Braswell at that price is a win they earned.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick33 Rnd2 Jordan Morgan
Jordan Morgan at pick No. 33 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick55 Rnd2 Chris Braswell
Nice patience on Chris Braswell, who had no business lasting to slot 55. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick90 Rnd3 Mekhi Wingo
Mekhi Wingo at Round 3, Pick 27 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick101 Rnd4 Tykee Smith
A big swing on Tykee Smith at the 101st pick, well ahead of any board in the building. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick158 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
Fair-plus on Kitan Oladapo, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick166 Rnd5 Cornelius Johnson
Value said wait; Cornelius Johnson in No. 166 says they were not listening. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick184 Rnd6 Drake Nugent
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Drake Nugent. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick198 Rnd6 Kendall Milton
A straight-up fair deal on Kendall Milton at Round 6, Pick 23, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick241 Rnd7 Richard Jibunor
They left a pile of value on the table to take Richard Jibunor this early at slot 241. The roster logic is harder to follow.
