Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall C+
ValueC NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
A mixed bag for the Dolphins, and a C+ to match.

The rest of the league had time to spare on Elijah Arroyo; the Dolphins did not wait, grabbing him 87 spots ahead at pick 98.

The Judkins pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. On the needs board they went 5 of 8, with wide receiver the one that mattered most.

They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Malaki Starks
No edge and no loss on Malaki Starks in the 13th pick; it is a wash and a sensible one. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick48 Rnd2 Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson at the Round 2 slot is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick98 Rnd3 Elijah Arroyo
Elijah Arroyo at No. 98 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The roster fit checks out.
Pick114 Rnd4 Quinshon Judkins
They barely believed it either: Quinshon Judkins still on the board at pick No. 114. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick133 Rnd4 Jaylin Noel
They liked Jaylin Noel enough to skip the value, taking him in the 133rd overall pick. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick149 Rnd5 Shemar Turner
Shemar Turner at slot 149 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick154 Rnd5 Billy Bowman Jr.
Circle this one: Billy Bowman Jr. at the 154th overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
