Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall C-
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesF FutureB-
The Dolphins bled value on every deal, hence the C-.

The Jack Pyburn pick is the one that will follow the Dolphins into the fall. They took him 54 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so. Some smart calls, some head-scratchers, and a C- in the wash.

The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. The Thieneman pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

Spending an early pick on cornerback with quarterback, interior defensive lineman and other spots open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to.

Not a disaster, not a triumph, just a middling class.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Emmanuel Pregnon
In the 28th overall pick they get a cornerstone up front, even if it was a touch early. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick38 Rnd2 Zion Young
They paid sticker price for Zion Young in pick No. 38, and that is fine. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick43 Rnd2 Derrick Moore
Derrick Moore at the 43rd pick is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick58 Rnd2 Jacob Rodriguez
Jacob Rodriguez at pick 58 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick59 Rnd2 Dillon Thieneman
They will replay Dillon Thieneman at Round 2, Pick 27 for years; that is how good the value is. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick75 Rnd3 Jake Slaughter
Jake Slaughter at the Round 3 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick87 Rnd3 Treydan Stukes
Treydan Stukes in pick 87 is fair value, right on his grade. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick90 Rnd3 Devin Moore
Of all the spots to shop, they chose cornerback. Devin Moore in pick No. 90 leaves quarterback, interior defensive lineman and other spots for later.
Pick120 Rnd4 Beau Stephens
Beau Stephens in the Round 4 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick138 Rnd4 Louis Moore
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went safety with Louis Moore while clear needs at quarterback, interior defensive lineman and other spots sat open.
Pick151 Rnd5 Kaleb Elarms-Orr
A wild overpay on Kaleb Elarms-Orr in the 151st overall pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick160 Rnd5 Keagen Trost
A big swing on Keagen Trost at the 160th pick, well ahead of any board in the building. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick227 Rnd7 Jack Pyburn
Jack Pyburn at Round 7, Pick 11 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick238 Rnd7 Andre Fuller
Andre Fuller in No. 238 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick255 Rnd7 De'Zhaun Stribling
De'Zhaun Stribling at pick 255 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
