Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall D+
ValueB+ NeedB TradesF FutureB
Larceny in the 227th overall pick lands the Dolphins a D+, Jackson and all.

Every swap seemed to tilt away from the Dolphins, and the value they bled adds up to real damage.

However the rest shakes out, Jackson at that price is a win they earned. The Kamara reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

They will answer for taking cornerback early while quarterback went begging.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Francis Mauigoa
In the Round 1 slot they get an anchor for the offensive line. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick30 Rnd1 KC Concepcion
In slot 30 they get a true top target at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick43 Rnd2 Dillon Thieneman
They let Dillon Thieneman come to them and pounced at Round 2, Pick 11. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick73 Rnd3 Keith Abney II
You do not let a cornerback like Keith Abney II reach the 73rd pick and blink. They did not. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick75 Rnd3 Anthony Hill Jr.
Taking Anthony Hill Jr. in pick 75 is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick87 Rnd3 Eli Stowers
A tight end of that caliber at No. 87 is the definition of value, full stop. The roster fit checks out.
Pick94 Rnd3 Lee Hunter
Lee Hunter in Round 3, Pick 30 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick106 Rnd4 Mike Washington Jr.
They barely believed it either: Mike Washington Jr. still on the board at No. 106. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick130 Rnd4 Mikail Kamara
They talked themselves into Mikail Kamara at pick 130, and the board did not agree. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick132 Rnd4 Max Llewellyn
Max Llewellyn in the 132nd overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick140 Rnd4 Hezekiah Masses
A surprising call. With quarterback still to address, they spent the 140th pick on Hezekiah Masses, a cornerback they were not short of.
Pick150 Rnd5 CJ Daniels
A tidy little value on CJ Daniels in pick No. 150, a step better than break-even. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick151 Rnd5 Eli Raridon
They read the board right and Eli Raridon was the payoff at the Round 5 slot. It fills a real need, too.
Pick227 Rnd7 Domani Jackson
They robbed the room for Domani Jackson here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
