Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureC+
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Dolphins a B-.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Derrick Moore at pick No. 43, a reach of 60 spots that the board flatly disagrees with. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B-.

With interior defensive lineman, tight end and other spots unsolved, spending premium capital on safety is the choice that costs them. They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it.

On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with quarterback the one that mattered most. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Spencer Fano
In pick No. 11 they get a long-term starter on the line at fair value.
Pick43 Rnd2 Derrick Moore
A wild overpay on Derrick Moore in No. 43, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick75 Rnd3 Malachi Fields
Malachi Fields at Round 3, Pick 11 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick87 Rnd3 Zakee Wheatley
A reasonable price with a little left over, Zakee Wheatley in the Round 3 slot. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick90 Rnd3 Daylen Everette
Daylen Everette at pick 90 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick111 Rnd4 Bishop Fitzgerald
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went safety with Bishop Fitzgerald while clear needs at interior defensive lineman, tight end and other spots sat open.
Pick138 Rnd4 Beau Stephens
They took Beau Stephens at par in the Round 4 slot, which is nothing to complain about. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick149 Rnd5 J'Mari Taylor
J'Mari Taylor at No. 149 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The roster fit checks out.
Pick227 Rnd7 Luke Altmyer
A premium they did not need to pay, Luke Altmyer a notch or two before his time. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
