Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B-
ValueB+ NeedB- TradesD FutureA+
The phones sank the Dolphins this weekend: B-.

You can fall in love with a player. You are not supposed to marry him in the wrong round. The Dolphins did exactly that with Brady Cook in No. 148.

That Sanders pick is the receipt they will wave around later. They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. With wide receiver and edge rusher unsolved, spending premium capital on safety is the choice that costs them.

They punted on wide receiver, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
In No. 28 they get a centerfielder for the defense, and a steal at that.
Pick47 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker at pick No. 47 is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick97 Rnd3 Deone Walker
Deone Walker in slot 97 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick99 Rnd3 Deontae Lawson
Deontae Lawson at the 99th overall pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick102 Rnd4 Jack Nelson
Jack Nelson at the 102nd pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. The roster fit checks out.
Pick114 Rnd4 Sebastian Castro
Of all the spots to shop, they chose safety. Sebastian Castro in Round 4, Pick 13 leaves wide receiver and edge rusher for later.
Pick148 Rnd5 Brady Cook
A big swing on Brady Cook at the Round 5 slot, well ahead of any board in the building. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick153 Rnd5 Jake Majors
Jake Majors in pick No. 153 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick157 Rnd5 Barrett Carter
Somehow Barrett Carter was still sitting there in the 157th pick, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick231 Rnd7 Raheim Sanders
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Raheim Sanders in Round 7, Pick 17, plain and simple. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick251 Rnd7 Jake Briningstool
The board fumbled Jake Briningstool all the way to pick 251, and they scooped it up. It fills a real need, too.
