Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The Dolphins kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

The Dolphins bet big and early on Trey Wedig, 76 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Simon.

With edge rusher unsolved, spending premium capital on safety is the choice that costs them.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In the 13th overall pick they get a pocket-collapsing interior rusher. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick48 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
Alfred Collins in the Round 2 slot is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick98 Rnd3 Kevin Winston Jr.
Kevin Winston Jr. at pick 98 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick116 Rnd4 Malachi Moore
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending pick No. 116 on Malachi Moore with edge rusher unsolved.
Pick135 Rnd4 Raheim Sanders
A reach on Raheim Sanders in No. 135; the board had better options right there. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick150 Rnd5 Cody Simon
Cody Simon in slot 150 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick155 Rnd5 Chimere Dike
This one needs a full-page explanation: Chimere Dike in Round 5, Pick 17, miles early. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick224 Rnd7 Jackson Hawes
Jackson Hawes in the Round 7 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The roster fit checks out.
Pick231 Rnd7 Clay Webb
They went early on Clay Webb in pick No. 231, and the value did not follow. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick253 Rnd7 Trey Wedig
They reached into another round for Trey Wedig, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick256 Rnd7 Brady Cook
A premium they did not need to pay, Brady Cook a notch or two before his time. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
