Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesD FutureA+
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Dolphins: B-.

Nobody else had Nadame Tucker anywhere near Round 4, Pick 11. The Dolphins did, by 57 spots, and that gap is the whole story.

The Scott pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. They gave back a little on the phones for the right to move. Stockpiling next year's capital is patient, if unglamorous, asset work.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Kenyon Sadiq
In slot 28 they get a mismatch in the passing game, outstanding value to boot.
Pick30 Rnd1 Sonny Styles
They let Sonny Styles come to them and pounced at pick 30. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick43 Rnd2 Omar Cooper Jr.
Omar Cooper Jr. at the 43rd pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick91 Rnd3 Michael Trigg
Michael Trigg in pick No. 91 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. The roster fit checks out.
Pick94 Rnd3 Keionte Scott
Circle this one: Keionte Scott at the 94th overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick109 Rnd4 Justin Joly
No drama and no debate, Justin Joly went about where he belonged in the Round 4 slot. It fills a real need, too.
Pick111 Rnd4 Nadame Tucker
Nadame Tucker at slot 111 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick112 Rnd4 Jaeden Roberts
Jaeden Roberts at Round 4, Pick 12 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick130 Rnd4 Louis Moore
They reached into another round for Louis Moore, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick147 Rnd5 Taylen Green
They reached a country mile for Taylen Green at the 147th overall pick, and the board is aghast. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick151 Rnd5 Sawyer Robertson
Value said wait; Sawyer Robertson in the 151st pick says they were not listening. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick180 Rnd5 J'Mari Taylor
No edge and no loss on J'Mari Taylor in pick 180; it is a wash and a sensible one. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick209 Rnd6 Zxavian Harris
Zxavian Harris at No. 209 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick211 Rnd6 Nick Barrett
Nick Barrett in pick No. 211 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick227 Rnd7 Jalen Huskey
Nothing to complain about; Jalen Huskey went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
