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

You can hear the double-takes from here. The Dolphins took Tahj Washington at pick No. 242, roughly 121 spots before his name belonged.

They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

The verdict is a shrug for now, with the swing picks left to write the real ending.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Chop Robinson
In the Round 1 slot they get a disruptor off the edge, though they paid up to get him. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick53 Rnd2 Ben Sinnott
Ben Sinnott at No. 53 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick158 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
Kitan Oladapo at the 158th overall pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick186 Rnd6 Christian Jones
They paid up for Christian Jones at the 186th pick when waiting would have done the job. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick199 Rnd6 DeMonte Capehart
They left a pile of value on the table to take DeMonte Capehart this early at pick 199. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick242 Rnd7 Tahj Washington
This one needs a full-page explanation: Tahj Washington in slot 242, miles early. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
