Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall C-
ValueA- NeedB TradesF FutureB
The Dolphins robbed the room for Rivers. Final grade: C-.

You build a draft on nights like this. Eric Rivers had no business being available in Round 7, Pick 4, and the Dolphins did the only sane thing and turned in the card.

The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. They punted on linebacker, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Hit on Kenyon Sadiq and the swing picks, and this ages a lot better than it grades today.

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Jermod McCoy
In pick 26 they get a press-man option on the boundary, and a steal at that. More want than need.
Pick30 Rnd1 Kenyon Sadiq
In slot 30 they get a mismatch in the passing game at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
Pick39 Rnd2 Dillon Thieneman
Dillon Thieneman at pick No. 39 is money in the bank, a safety taken below his worth. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick43 Rnd2 Omar Cooper Jr.
A quiet steal in the Round 2 slot: Omar Cooper Jr. for less than the market said. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick75 Rnd3 Joshua Josephs
They will replay Joshua Josephs at Round 3, Pick 11 for years; that is how good the value is. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick87 Rnd3 Lee Hunter
Lee Hunter in the 87th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick90 Rnd3 Jake Slaughter
Somehow Jake Slaughter was still sitting there in the 90th overall pick, and they pounced on premier offensive lineman value. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick91 Rnd3 Jadarian Price
Jadarian Price at No. 91 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It fills a real need, too.
Pick94 Rnd3 Jake Golday
Taking Jake Golday in Round 3, Pick 30 is close to grand larceny; an edge rusher that good had no business lasting this long. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick112 Rnd4 Deion Burks
A wide receiver of that caliber at No. 112 is the definition of value, full stop. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick126 Rnd4 Michael Trigg
Michael Trigg is a better player than the Round 4 slot suggests; smart patience, rewarded. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick130 Rnd4 Jack Endries
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Jack Endries at pick 130 is the proof. The roster fit checks out.
Pick146 Rnd5 Hezekiah Masses
Hezekiah Masses in the 146th pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick149 Rnd5 CJ Daniels
A reasonable price with a little left over, CJ Daniels in slot 149. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick151 Rnd5 Dametrious Crownover
Dametrious Crownover at the 151st overall pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick177 Rnd5 Drew Allar
Drew Allar at pick No. 177 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick180 Rnd5 Albert Regis
A tidy bit of business in Round 5, Pick 40, where Albert Regis graded well above the range. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick220 Rnd7 Eric Rivers
They barely believed it either: Eric Rivers still on the board at the 220th pick. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick227 Rnd7 Thaddeus Dixon
Fair-plus on Thaddeus Dixon, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
