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

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Dolphins started one anyway for Donovan Smith, 115 picks ahead of schedule. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

The Taylor steal is the beam this whole class leans on. That interior defensive lineman hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but interior defensive lineman.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Josh Simmons
In No. 13 they get a plug-and-play piece up front at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick48 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker slid further than he should have, and the 48th overall pick is lovely value for the offensive lineman. The roster fit checks out.
Pick98 Rnd3 Donovan Smith
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Donovan Smith well ahead of where he belonged. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick114 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
Somehow Kevin Winston Jr. was still sitting there in the 114th pick, and they pounced on premier safety value. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick133 Rnd4 Sai'vion Jones
Sai'vion Jones in pick 133 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick149 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. at pick No. 149 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick154 Rnd5 Mason Taylor
They barely believed it either: Mason Taylor still on the board at slot 154. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick224 Rnd7 Karene Reid
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Karene Reid in the 224th overall pick, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
Pick231 Rnd7 Jonah Monheim
They will replay Jonah Monheim at No. 231 for years; that is how good the value is. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick252 Rnd7 Garrett Dellinger
A reach on Garrett Dellinger in pick No. 252; the board had better options right there. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
