Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB- TradesA+ FutureB-
The Dolphins fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B.

If you want a masterclass in dealing, watch the Dolphins, who turned every swap into a profit this weekend. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The McCoy pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

Nearly every premium pick went to that side of the ball.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick53 Rnd2 Patrick Paul
They did well to land Patrick Paul in the 53rd pick, just ahead of his grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick61 Rnd2 Cooper DeJean
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Cooper DeJean. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick66 Rnd3 Leonard Taylor III
Leonard Taylor III at slot 66 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick85 Rnd3 Rod Moore
Rod Moore at Round 3, Pick 22 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick111 Rnd4 Tommy Eichenberg
Fair-plus on Tommy Eichenberg, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick148 Rnd5 Payton Wilson
Payton Wilson at pick No. 148 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick166 Rnd5 Jack Nelson
No edge and no loss on Jack Nelson in the 166th overall pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick250 Rnd7 Bru McCoy
Bru McCoy slid further than he should have, and the Round 7 slot is lovely value for the wide receiver. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
