Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Dolphins: B-.

Thirty-one other rooms let A.J. Haulcy slide, and the Dolphins were the ones holding the card at the 75th overall pick. Highway robbery. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

That interior defensive lineman hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. The Kamara pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In slot 11 they get a three-down second-level presence. A real need, handled.
Pick43 Rnd2 Brandon Cisse
Brandon Cisse slipping to No. 43 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick75 Rnd3 A.J. Haulcy
A safety of that caliber at No. 75 is the definition of value, full stop. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick87 Rnd3 Mikail Kamara
They left a pile of value on the table to take Mikail Kamara this early at pick 87. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick90 Rnd3 Omar Cooper Jr.
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Omar Cooper Jr. in the 90th overall pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick119 Rnd4 Drew Allar
A real head-scratcher, Drew Allar in Round 4, Pick 19 is miles ahead of his ranking. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick149 Rnd5 CJ Daniels
The board fumbled CJ Daniels all the way to slot 149, and they scooped it up. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick157 Rnd5 Louis Moore
Good price on Louis Moore in the 157th pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick227 Rnd7 Aiden Fisher
No drama and no debate, Aiden Fisher went about where he belonged in the Round 7 slot. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
