Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall D
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesF FutureB
The Dolphins found their guy under center in Mendoza: D.

The Roman Hemby pick is the one that will follow the Dolphins into the fall. They took him 63 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so.

Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. Everything downstream of Fernando Mendoza depends on Fernando Mendoza, and the building knows it. Spending an early pick on cornerback with interior defensive lineman and linebacker open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.

For all the activity, interior defensive lineman went untouched, which is hard to explain. The Sadiq pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

In the end, a class the front office will want to grow past quickly.

Pick Analysis
Pick1 Rnd1 Fernando Mendoza
In Round 1, Pick 1 they get their guy under center for the next decade at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick12 Rnd1 Mansoor Delane
In pick No. 12 they get a ballhawk on the outside. Need was not the driver here.
Pick33 Rnd2 Kenyon Sadiq
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Kenyon Sadiq at pick 33. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick36 Rnd2 Elijah Sarratt
A conviction pick on Elijah Sarratt at the 36th pick that the board grades a round light. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick43 Rnd2 Gennings Dunker
Gennings Dunker at No. 43 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick44 Rnd2 Akheem Mesidor
Akheem Mesidor at the 44th overall pick jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick75 Rnd3 Keionte Scott
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, Keionte Scott adds a cornerback and leaves interior defensive lineman and linebacker untouched.
Pick87 Rnd3 Julian Neal
They bypassed pressing needs at interior defensive lineman and linebacker to take Julian Neal, a cornerback that was not the priority.
Pick90 Rnd3 Blake Miller
Blake Miller at pick 90 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick111 Rnd4 Keylan Rutledge
Keylan Rutledge at the 111th pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick155 Rnd5 Bud Clark
Bud Clark at the 155th overall pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick178 Rnd5 Luke Altmyer
A real head-scratcher, Luke Altmyer in the Round 5 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick180 Rnd6 Trey Zuhn III
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Trey Zuhn III well ahead of where he belonged. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick192 Rnd6 J. Michael Sturdivant
J. Michael Sturdivant at No. 192 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick206 Rnd6 Roman Hemby
They left a pile of value on the table to take Roman Hemby this early at the 206th pick. It fills a real need, too.
Pick212 Rnd6 Robert Spears-Jennings
A clean, defensible pick in pick 212 with a little surplus value in Robert Spears-Jennings. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick227 Rnd7 Riley Mahlman
Riley Mahlman at the 227th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
