Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Dolphins: B-.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Chimere Dike; the Dolphins did not wait, grabbing him 56 spots ahead at Round 5, Pick 17.

For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. The Moore pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at edge rusher and linebacker. If one pick saves this weekend, it is McCord.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In the 13th pick they get a load in the middle. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick48 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
They went early on Alfred Collins in the 48th overall pick, and the value did not follow. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick98 Rnd3 Kevin Winston Jr.
Kevin Winston Jr. in No. 98 is fair value, right on his grade. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick116 Rnd4 Malachi Moore
A surprising call. With edge rusher and linebacker still to address, they spent the Round 4 slot on Malachi Moore, a safety they were not short of.
Pick135 Rnd4 Kyle McCord
Kyle McCord in pick No. 135 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick150 Rnd5 Raheim Sanders
Raheim Sanders at pick 150 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick155 Rnd5 Chimere Dike
Chimere Dike in pick No. 155 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick224 Rnd7 Jackson Hawes
Jackson Hawes at Round 7, Pick 8 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick231 Rnd7 Hayden Conner
A big swing on Hayden Conner at slot 231, well ahead of any board in the building. It fills a real need, too.
Pick253 Rnd7 Torricelli Simpkins III
Torricelli Simpkins III in pick 253 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
