Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Lew should have been long gone. The Dolphins pounced, and earned a B-.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Dolphins watched Connor Lew slide 27 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Klubnik has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. They left with quarterback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the edge rusher spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Monroe Freeling
In the 11th overall pick they get a plug-and-play piece up front, though they paid up to get him. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick43 Rnd2 Caleb Banks
Caleb Banks in pick 43 is fair value, right on his grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick75 Rnd3 Kamari Ramsey
They paid sticker price for Kamari Ramsey in No. 75, and that is fine. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick87 Rnd3 Connor Lew
The board fumbled Connor Lew all the way to Round 3, Pick 23, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick90 Rnd3 Brenen Thompson
Fair-plus on Brenen Thompson, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick111 Rnd4 Cade Klubnik
Cade Klubnik at the Round 4 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick149 Rnd5 DeMonte Capehart
DeMonte Capehart at pick No. 149 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick227 Rnd7 Antonio Kite
By-the-book stuff, Antonio Kite at the 227th pick squarely in line with his ranking. A minor need, but a need all the same.
