Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The Dolphins let Styles fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

The Dolphins spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Sonny Styles, the No. 51 name on the board, in pick 99.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it.

The Jones Jr. reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Emery Jones Jr.
In slot 14 they get a cornerstone up front, though they paid up to get him. A real need, handled.
Pick42 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
Fair-plus on Tyler Booker, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick49 Rnd2 Carson Beck
Carson Beck at the 49th pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick98 Rnd3 Deontae Lawson
Deontae Lawson in No. 98 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It fills a real need, too.
Pick99 Rnd3 Sonny Styles
They will replay Sonny Styles at the Round 3 slot for years; that is how good the value is. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick101 Rnd3 Tacario Davis
A tidy little value on Tacario Davis in pick No. 101, a step better than break-even. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick111 Rnd4 Ozzy Trapilo
Ozzy Trapilo at Round 4, Pick 10 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick148 Rnd5 Gunnar Helm
Gunnar Helm at pick 148 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick159 Rnd5 Antwane Wells Jr.
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Antwane Wells Jr.. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick224 Rnd7 Dorian Strong
Dorian Strong at the 224th overall pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick231 Rnd7 Terion Stewart
No drama and no debate, Terion Stewart went about where he belonged in No. 231. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick249 Rnd7 Power Echols
No edge and no loss on Power Echols in pick 249; it is a wash and a sensible one. The roster fit checks out.
