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

Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Dolphins spent the 200th overall pick on DeMonte Capehart, a name most had 65 spots down the list.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. The back end got a real overhaul.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Terrion Arnold
In pick No. 22 they get a ballhawk on the outside. More want than need.
Pick54 Rnd2 Gabriel Murphy
Gabriel Murphy in slot 54 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick159 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
Kitan Oladapo in Round 5, Pick 23 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick186 Rnd6 JD Bertrand
No drama and no debate, JD Bertrand went about where he belonged in the 186th overall pick. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick200 Rnd6 DeMonte Capehart
DeMonte Capehart in the Round 6 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick243 Rnd7 Tanner McLachlan
A big swing on Tanner McLachlan at the 243rd pick, well ahead of any board in the building. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
