Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall A-
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureA+
Grand theft in slot 112: the Dolphins steal Scott and grade out a A-.

The board owed the Dolphins one, and it paid up: Keionte Scott, the No. 67 name on the board, sitting there at Round 4, Pick 12 like a gift left on the doorstep. This is how you run a draft, and the A- reflects it.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. A whole weekend of picks and running back is somehow still a want. They are betting Morris proves the room right and everyone else wrong.

A strong weekend's work, and a rare one to find this little fault with.

Pick Analysis
Pick43 Rnd2 Emmanuel Pregnon
Emmanuel Pregnon in slot 43 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick75 Rnd3 Caleb Tiernan
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Caleb Tiernan in No. 75. The roster fit checks out.
Pick87 Rnd3 Eli Stowers
They will replay Eli Stowers at the Round 3 slot for years; that is how good the value is. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick89 Rnd3 Zachariah Branch
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Zachariah Branch at pick No. 89 is the proof. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick90 Rnd3 Anthony Lucas
Anthony Lucas in the 90th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick92 Rnd3 Derrick Moore
They went early on Derrick Moore in the 92nd pick, and the value did not follow. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick94 Rnd3 Jake Golday
Jake Golday at pick 94 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick97 Rnd3 Caden Curry
They paid up for Caden Curry at Round 3, Pick 33 when waiting would have done the job. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick112 Rnd4 Keionte Scott
Keionte Scott at the Round 4 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick161 Rnd5 DeMonte Capehart
Steal is underselling it; DeMonte Capehart at pick No. 161 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick163 Rnd5 Aaron Graves
Aaron Graves in No. 163 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick168 Rnd5 Drew Allar
Somehow Drew Allar was still sitting there in Round 5, Pick 30, and they pounced on premier quarterback value. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick177 Rnd5 DJ Campbell
A quiet steal in slot 177: DJ Campbell for less than the market said. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick215 Rnd6 Bryce Foster
Bryce Foster at pick 215 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick225 Rnd7 Tristan Leigh
A clean, defensible pick in the 225th pick with a little surplus value in Tristan Leigh. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick227 Rnd7 J. Michael Sturdivant
A straight-up fair deal on J. Michael Sturdivant at the 227th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick239 Rnd7 Micah Morris
They paid a round early for Micah Morris in No. 239, more than the board wanted. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick241 Rnd7 Will Kacmarek
A premium they did not need to pay, Will Kacmarek a notch or two before his time. It fills a real need, too.
Pick246 Rnd7 Colbie Young
Colbie Young in the 246th pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick255 Rnd7 Ja'Keem Jackson
A reach on Ja'Keem Jackson in pick No. 255; the board had better options right there. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
