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

There is conviction, and then there is this. The Dolphins took Joe Huber a full 65 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend.

The Dolphins indulged a want in Moore while a need in edge rusher stayed open. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In pick No. 13 they get a pocket-collapsing interior rusher. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick48 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
Alfred Collins at the 48th overall pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick98 Rnd3 Kevin Winston Jr.
Kevin Winston Jr. in Round 3, Pick 34 is fair value, right on his grade. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick116 Rnd4 Malachi Moore
A curious use of the Round 4 slot. Edge rusher needed the pick; a safety in Malachi Moore did not.
Pick135 Rnd4 Cody Simon
Cody Simon at the 135th pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick150 Rnd5 Raheim Sanders
Good price on Raheim Sanders in No. 150, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick155 Rnd5 Chimere Dike
They reached into another round for Chimere Dike, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick224 Rnd7 Jackson Hawes
Jackson Hawes at the 224th pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The roster fit checks out.
Pick231 Rnd7 Clay Webb
They paid a round early for Clay Webb in slot 231, more than the board wanted. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick253 Rnd7 Brady Cook
Value said wait; Brady Cook in Round 7, Pick 37 says they were not listening. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick256 Rnd7 Joe Huber
Joe Huber at pick No. 256 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
