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

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Trinidad Chambliss in the Round 3 slot, a good 26 spots before the room expected him.

Getting Jennings where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up. Quarterback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Caleb Lomu
In No. 11 they get a building block for the line, though the board says they badly overpaid. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick43 Rnd2 Dillon Thieneman
They did well to land Dillon Thieneman in Round 2, Pick 11, just ahead of his grade. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick75 Rnd3 Domonique Orange
Domonique Orange at the 75th pick is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the interior defensive lineman. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick87 Rnd3 Taurean York
Taurean York in slot 87 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It fills a real need, too.
Pick90 Rnd3 Trinidad Chambliss
Trinidad Chambliss at the Round 3 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick111 Rnd4 Jack Endries
Jack Endries slipping to pick 111 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick149 Rnd5 Ted Hurst
They paid sticker price for Ted Hurst in the 149th pick, and that is fine. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick227 Rnd7 Kevin Jennings
Circle this one: Kevin Jennings at slot 227 is a fall that decides a draft. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
