Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesD+ FutureA
The Dolphins checked most of the boxes and earned a B-.

Some picks age like wine; JJ Pegues at No. 150 will need to, sitting 37 spots clear of his grade.

Phillips falling to them is the kind of break a good board is built to catch. Leaving linebacker unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. The trades cost them a sliver of value they did not need to spend.

Job largely done: quarterback settled and 7 of 8 of the wish list covered.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Jahdae Barron
In the 24th pick they get a lockdown presence outside, outstanding value to boot.
Pick48 Rnd2 Marcus Mbow
No drama and no debate, Marcus Mbow went about where he belonged in Round 2, Pick 16. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick98 Rnd3 Kevin Winston Jr.
By-the-book stuff, Kevin Winston Jr. at the Round 3 slot squarely in line with his ranking. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick119 Rnd4 Kyle McCord
A straight-up fair deal on Kyle McCord at the 119th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick135 Rnd4 Jordan Phillips
They barely believed it either: Jordan Phillips still on the board at pick 135. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick139 Rnd5 Luke Kandra
They left a pile of value on the table to take Luke Kandra this early at pick No. 139. It fills a real need, too.
Pick150 Rnd5 JJ Pegues
JJ Pegues in No. 150 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick155 Rnd5 Tyler Baron
They paid sticker price for Tyler Baron in Round 5, Pick 17, and that is fine. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick193 Rnd6 Oronde Gadsden II
Oronde Gadsden II in slot 193 is fair value, right on his grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick224 Rnd7 Jackson Hawes
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jackson Hawes well ahead of where he belonged. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick231 Rnd7 Phil Mafah
Phil Mafah in the Round 7 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick253 Rnd7 Sam Brown Jr.
Sam Brown Jr. at pick 253 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
