Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall C+
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Some hits, some head-scratchers, and a C+ for the Dolphins.

The Dolphins went off the board in a big way for Tahj Washington, 108 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another. For now it grades a C+, with the swing picks left to settle the rest.

A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 3 of 8 of the wish list covered. They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.

The phones were busy but the ledger stayed level.

Hit on Terrion Arnold and the swing picks, and this ages a lot better than it grades today.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Terrion Arnold
In No. 22 they get a ballhawk on the outside. Need was not the driver here.
Pick54 Rnd2 Gabriel Murphy
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Gabriel Murphy well ahead of where he belonged. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick159 Rnd5 Jaylen Harrell
They talked themselves into Jaylen Harrell at Round 5, Pick 23, and the board did not agree. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick186 Rnd6 AJ Barner
They paid sticker price for AJ Barner in the Round 6 slot, and that is fine. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick200 Rnd6 Jalen Green
They liked Jalen Green enough to skip the value, taking him in the 200th pick. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick243 Rnd7 Tahj Washington
A big swing on Tahj Washington at pick No. 243, well ahead of any board in the building. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
