Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall C
ValueA- NeedB- TradesD- FutureC
Larceny in the Round 4 slot lands the Dolphins a C, Howard and all.

Call it larceny. Will Howard sat on the board until slot 135, and the Dolphins did not need to be asked twice. It washes out to a C, no better and no worse.

The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The Dolphins indulged a want in Winston Jr. while a need in edge rusher, running back and other spots stayed open.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Will Johnson
In Round 1, Pick 13 they get an island corner at a price that makes it sweeter.
Pick48 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
A safety of that caliber at pick No. 48 is the definition of value, full stop. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick56 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
The board fumbled Tyler Booker all the way to slot 56, and they scooped it up. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick98 Rnd3 Jordan Phillips
A premium they did not need to pay, Jordan Phillips a notch or two before his time. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick116 Rnd4 Tai Felton
Tai Felton at the 116th overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick123 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went safety with Kevin Winston Jr. while clear needs at edge rusher, running back and other spots sat open.
Pick135 Rnd4 Will Howard
Will Howard in the 135th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick150 Rnd5 Mitchell Evans
Mitchell Evans at the Round 5 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
