Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall

FutureB+
Grand theft in slot 227: the Dolphins steal Cameron and grade out a B. You could see the war room lean forward. Josh Cameron at the Round 7 slot is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did.
They are betting Payton proves the room right and everyone else wrong. They will answer for taking cornerback early while interior defensive lineman went begging.
If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through interior defensive lineman. The future picks help the war chest more than the win-now roster.
A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.
Pick Analysis
Pick11
Rnd1
Mansoor Delane
In Round 1, Pick 11 they get an island corner. More want than need.
Pick30
Rnd1
Sonny Styles
In slot 30 they get a coverage-and-run second-level piece at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
Pick43
Rnd2
Omar Cooper Jr.
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Omar Cooper Jr. in the Round 2 slot. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick77
Rnd3
D'Angelo Ponds
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending No. 77 on D'Angelo Ponds with interior defensive lineman unsolved.
Pick87
Rnd3
Jake Slaughter
Steal is underselling it; Jake Slaughter at pick No. 87 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick90
Rnd3
Jalon Kilgore
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Jalon Kilgore at cornerback with interior defensive lineman open.
Pick111
Rnd4
Michael Trigg
No drama and no debate, Michael Trigg went about where he belonged in the 111th overall pick. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick151
Rnd5
Nadame Tucker
They reached a country mile for Nadame Tucker at the 151st pick, and the board is aghast. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick170
Rnd5
Cole Payton
Value said wait; Cole Payton in the Round 5 slot says they were not listening. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick195
Rnd6
J'Mari Taylor
A clean, defensible pick in pick 195 with a little surplus value in J'Mari Taylor. The roster fit checks out.
Pick227
Rnd7
Josh Cameron
Josh Cameron at the 227th pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick238
Rnd7
Trey Zuhn III
They jumped the gun on Trey Zuhn III, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick246
Rnd7
Jack Kelly
A premium they did not need to pay, Jack Kelly a notch or two before his time. It fills a real need, too.
Pick256
Rnd7
Adam Randall
Adam Randall at pick No. 256 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
