Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B
ValueC+ NeedA- TradesA+ FutureD
A passer of the future in Moore, and a B, for the Dolphins.

They finally answered the question that shadows every other one. Dante Moore is the Dolphins' quarterback, full stop. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

They are betting Barkate proves the room right and everyone else wrong. They banked enough surplus on Jackson Jr. to cover a lot of smaller sins.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. The tight end hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Dante Moore
In pick No. 3 they get their guy under center for the next decade. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick67 Rnd3 Cooper Barkate
Value said wait; Cooper Barkate in the 67th pick says they were not listening. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick104 Rnd4 Kenyatta Jackson Jr.
Somehow Kenyatta Jackson Jr. was still sitting there in the Round 4 slot, and they pounced on premier edge rusher value. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick142 Rnd5 Jackson Bennee
They barely believed it either: Jackson Bennee still on the board at pick 142. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick165 Rnd5 Horace Lockett
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Horace Lockett. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick182 Rnd6 Jayden Virgin-Morgan
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jayden Virgin-Morgan in slot 182, miles early. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick243 Rnd7 Jordan Marshall
Jordan Marshall in Round 7, Pick 22 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick255 Rnd7 Coen Echols
Coen Echols in No. 255 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
