Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B-
ValueC NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Dolphins cashed the board's mistake on Tuten: B-.

Thirty-one other rooms let Bhayshul Tuten slide, and the Dolphins were the ones holding the card at the 251st pick. Highway robbery. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.

Every board in the league had Sanders lower, and that gap is the story. A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. The roster is better shaped than it was, with interior defensive lineman chief among the fixes.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick14 Rnd1 Cameron Williams
In Round 1, Pick 14 they get a building block for the line, though they paid up to get him. A real need, handled.
Pick57 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker in the 57th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick89 Rnd3 Deone Walker
They will replay Deone Walker at slot 89 for years; that is how good the value is. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick98 Rnd3 Logan Jones
They left a pile of value on the table to take Logan Jones this early at No. 98. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick99 Rnd3 Chris Paul Jr.
Value said wait; Chris Paul Jr. in pick 99 says they were not listening. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick116 Rnd4 Harold Perkins Jr.
Harold Perkins Jr. at the 116th overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. It fills a real need, too.
Pick150 Rnd5 Jalen Catalon
By-the-book stuff, Jalen Catalon at the Round 5 slot squarely in line with his ranking. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick158 Rnd5 Shilo Sanders
A real head-scratcher, Shilo Sanders in pick No. 158 is miles ahead of his ranking. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick225 Rnd7 Cody Lindenberg
Fair-plus on Cody Lindenberg, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. The roster fit checks out.
Pick232 Rnd7 Thor Griffith
They reached into another round for Thor Griffith, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick241 Rnd7 Luke Lachey
They jumped the gun on Luke Lachey, taking him earlier than his grade liked. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick251 Rnd7 Bhayshul Tuten
Somehow Bhayshul Tuten was still sitting there in the 251st pick, and they pounced on premier running back value. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
