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

The Dolphins clearly saw something nobody else did in Chimere Dike, taking him 56 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced.

They will answer for taking safety early while edge rusher and linebacker went begging. Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Getting McCord where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In the 13th overall pick they get a load in the middle. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick48 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
Alfred Collins at pick No. 48 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick98 Rnd3 Kevin Winston Jr.
Kevin Winston Jr. at pick 98 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick116 Rnd4 Malachi Moore
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending No. 116 on Malachi Moore with edge rusher and linebacker unsolved.
Pick135 Rnd4 Kyle McCord
Circle this one: Kyle McCord at Round 4, Pick 33 is a fall that decides a draft. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick150 Rnd5 Raheim Sanders
Raheim Sanders at the 150th pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick155 Rnd5 Chimere Dike
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Chimere Dike. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick224 Rnd7 Jackson Hawes
A wild overpay on Jackson Hawes in slot 224, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick231 Rnd7 Hayden Conner
Hayden Conner in pick 231 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick253 Rnd7 Torricelli Simpkins III
Torricelli Simpkins III in the 253rd overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. The roster fit checks out.
