Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall
B
ValueC+
NeedB
TradesC+
FutureA+
The Dolphins checked most of the boxes and earned a B. If confidence were a draft strategy, the Dolphins would have aced it. Sawyer Robertson at the 142nd overall pick is 62 spots clear of where he belonged.
A whole weekend of picks and tight end is somehow still a want. They left with quarterback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but tight end.
Pick Analysis
Pick11
Rnd1
Mansoor Delane
Good price on Mansoor Delane in the Round 1 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick77
Rnd3
Omar Cooper Jr.
No drama and no debate, Omar Cooper Jr. went about where he belonged in the 77th pick. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick90
Rnd3
Malachi Lawrence
They talked themselves into Malachi Lawrence at Round 3, Pick 26, and the board did not agree. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick111
Rnd4
Nadame Tucker
Nadame Tucker at slot 111 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick140
Rnd5
J'Mari Taylor
A premium they did not need to pay, J'Mari Taylor a notch or two before his time. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick142
Rnd5
Sawyer Robertson
A wild overpay on Sawyer Robertson in pick 142, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick176
Rnd5
Taylen Green
A conviction pick on Taylen Green at Round 5, Pick 38 that the board grades a round light. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick196
Rnd6
Pat Coogan
Pat Coogan at No. 196 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick210
Rnd6
Zxavian Harris
Zxavian Harris in the 210th overall pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick220
Rnd7
Nick Barrett
A big swing on Nick Barrett at pick 220, well ahead of any board in the building. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick228
Rnd7
Jalen Huskey
By-the-book stuff, Jalen Huskey at the Round 7 slot squarely in line with his ranking. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick235
Rnd7
Cole Payton
Cole Payton at slot 235 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick247
Rnd7
Trey Zuhn III
Trey Zuhn III in pick No. 247 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
