Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall C
ValueB NeedB+ TradesF FutureB-
Ward is the Dolphins' new face under center. Grade: C.

The search is over. The Dolphins handed the keys to Cam Ward, and the whole operation now runs on his development. A mixed bag that lands at C.

The Bryant reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. The Trader Jr. value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.

Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

Call it incomplete, and check back in a couple of seasons.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Cam Ward
In the Round 1 slot they get their quarterback of the future at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick48 Rnd2 Aireontae Ersery
Aireontae Ersery at pick 48 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick98 Rnd3 Cobee Bryant
They reached a country mile for Cobee Bryant at Round 3, Pick 34, and the board is aghast. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick116 Rnd4 Lathan Ransom
They let Lathan Ransom come to them and pounced at pick No. 116. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick135 Rnd4 Nick Nash
They reached into another round for Nick Nash, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick150 Rnd5 Seth McLaughlin
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Seth McLaughlin well ahead of where he belonged. It fills a real need, too.
Pick155 Rnd5 Trevor Etienne
Trevor Etienne in the 155th pick lands just on the right side of the ledger. The roster fit checks out.
Pick224 Rnd7 Karene Reid
Nothing to complain about; Karene Reid went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick231 Rnd7 Kyle Monangai
Kyle Monangai slipping to pick No. 231 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick253 Rnd7 Zeek Biggers
No drama and no debate, Zeek Biggers went about where he belonged in the 253rd pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick257 Rnd7 Dante Trader Jr.
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Dante Trader Jr. in the 257th overall pick. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
