Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Dolphins a B-.

Somewhere a scout is still blinking. The Dolphins spent the 98th pick on CJ West, a name the board had a full 89 spots lower.

Landing Bond that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with quarterback the one that mattered most.

The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Armand Membou
In the 13th overall pick they get a plug-and-play piece up front. A real need, handled.
Pick48 Rnd2 Maxwell Hairston
Maxwell Hairston at pick No. 48 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick98 Rnd3 CJ West
A big swing on CJ West at Round 3, Pick 34, well ahead of any board in the building. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick116 Rnd4 Isaiah Bond
They barely believed it either: Isaiah Bond still on the board at the 116th pick. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick135 Rnd4 Damien Martinez
Damien Martinez at No. 135 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick150 Rnd5 Tyler Shough
Nice patience on Tyler Shough, who had no business lasting to the Round 5 slot. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick155 Rnd5 Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II at No. 155 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
