Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B+
ValueB+ NeedB TradesA- FutureA
The Dolphins let Golday fall into their laps, and walked away with a B+.

The board owed the Dolphins one, and it paid up: Jake Golday, the No. 58 name on the board, sitting there at the 87th pick like a gift left on the doorstep.

Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. Teven Jenkins gives the group a proven body among the projects.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Kenyon Sadiq
In the 24th pick they get a seam-stretching tight end. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick30 Rnd1 Sonny Styles
In the 30th overall pick they get a coverage-and-run second-level piece at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
Pick43 Rnd2 Brandon Cisse
Brandon Cisse in No. 43 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick75 Rnd3 Jake Slaughter
A offensive lineman of that caliber at slot 75 is the definition of value, full stop. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick87 Rnd3 Jake Golday
Circle this one: Jake Golday at pick 87 is a fall that decides a draft. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick90 Rnd3 Kamari Ramsey
Kamari Ramsey at the Round 3 slot is money in the bank, a safety taken below his worth. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick94 Rnd3 Dontay Corleone
A top-tier interior defensive lineman at a bargain, Dontay Corleone in pick No. 94, plain and simple. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick130 Rnd4 CJ Daniels
A conviction pick on CJ Daniels at Round 4, Pick 30 that the board grades a round light. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick151 Rnd5 Beau Stephens
No drama and no debate, Beau Stephens went about where he belonged in pick 151. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick227 Rnd7 Keyshaun Elliott
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Keyshaun Elliott in Round 7, Pick 11. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick238 Rnd7 Eli Heidenreich
Eli Heidenreich in the 238th overall pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
