Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall

FutureB-
The Dolphins kept it disciplined and banked a B-. The Dolphins looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Denzel Burke at Round 3, Pick 28 regardless, 22 picks early. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.
They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Interior defensive lineman is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.
The dealing was even money, start to finish.
Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.
Pick Analysis
Pick18
Rnd1
Josh Simmons
No edge and no loss on Josh Simmons in No. 18; it is a wash and a sensible one. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick48
Rnd2
Xavier Watts
Fair-plus on Xavier Watts, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick82
Rnd3
Shemar Turner
No drama and no debate, Shemar Turner went about where he belonged in pick No. 82. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick92
Rnd3
Denzel Burke
They talked themselves into Denzel Burke at the 92nd overall pick, and the board did not agree. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
