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

There is reaching, and then there is Tim Smith at pick 252. The Dolphins jumped the board by 82 and dared it to prove them wrong. More right than wrong, and a B- to match.

Pierce at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. A whole weekend of picks and wide receiver is somehow still a want.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with quarterback chief among the fixes. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In the 13th pick they get a run-stuffing presence up front at fair value. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick48 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell in Round 2, Pick 16 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick98 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
Andrew Mukuba at pick 98 is money in the bank, a safety taken below his worth. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick115 Rnd4 Quinn Ewers
A quarterback of that caliber at slot 115 is the definition of value, full stop. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick135 Rnd4 Ajani Cornelius
A big swing on Ajani Cornelius at pick No. 135, well ahead of any board in the building. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick151 Rnd5 Hollin Pierce
Hollin Pierce in No. 151 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick156 Rnd5 Willie Lampkin
They jumped the gun on Willie Lampkin, taking him earlier than his grade liked. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick226 Rnd7 Cooper Mays
Cooper Mays in the 226th pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It fills a real need, too.
Pick233 Rnd7 Tonka Hemingway
A wild overpay on Tonka Hemingway in the 233rd overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick252 Rnd7 Tim Smith
They talked themselves into Tim Smith at pick No. 252, and the board did not agree. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
