Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall

TradesA+
FutureD
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Dolphins a C+. Somewhere a scout is still blinking. The Dolphins spent slot 111 on Demon Clowney, a name the board had a full 274 spots lower. A weekend of give and take that grades a C+.
On value alone, Barton makes the weekend a net positive. The phones were where this weekend was really won.
Leaving interior defensive lineman unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.
Hit on Avieon Terrell and the swing picks, and this ages a lot better than it grades today.
Pick Analysis
Pick11
Rnd1
Avieon Terrell
In pick 11 they get a sticky cover corner, though they paid up to get him. More want than need.
Pick35
Rnd2
Caleb Downs
Caleb Downs at No. 35 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick51
Rnd2
Nolan Rucci
Nolan Rucci in slot 51 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. The roster fit checks out.
Pick52
Rnd2
Deion Burks
They talked themselves into Deion Burks at Round 2, Pick 20, and the board did not agree. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick53
Rnd2
Bryce Lance
A wild overpay on Bryce Lance in the 53rd pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick60
Rnd2
Matayo Uiagalelei
Somehow Matayo Uiagalelei was still sitting there in pick No. 60, and they pounced on premier edge rusher value. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick61
Rnd2
Mikail Kamara
They reached into another round for Mikail Kamara, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick62
Rnd2
Spencer Fano
They will replay Spencer Fano at pick 62 for years; that is how good the value is. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick111
Rnd4
Demon Clowney
Demon Clowney in the Round 4 slot is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick119
Rnd4
Dante Dowdell
They reached a country mile for Dante Dowdell at the 119th overall pick, and the board is aghast. It fills a real need, too.
Pick142
Rnd5
Malachi Nelson
Value said wait; Malachi Nelson in No. 142 says they were not listening. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick152
Rnd5
TJ Metcalf
A real head-scratcher, TJ Metcalf in pick No. 152 is miles ahead of his ranking. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick156
Rnd5
DJ Harvey
This one needs a full-page explanation: DJ Harvey in slot 156, miles early. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick158
Rnd5
King Mack
King Mack at the 158th pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick227
Rnd7
Reggie Grimes II
Reggie Grimes II at No. 227 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick245
Rnd7
Lander Barton
Taking Lander Barton in pick 245 is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
