The Dolphins cashed the board's mistake on Klare: A. This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Max Klare, the No. 55 name on the board, stolen at pick No. 87. Very little went wrong, and the A is earned.
Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. The interior defensive lineman spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. If Allar pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.
Bottom line, with Chris Brazzell II leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.
Pick Analysis
Pick43
Rnd2
Chris Brazzell II
Value with a capital V on Chris Brazzell II in the 43rd pick, a genuine coup. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick52
Rnd2
Emmanuel Pregnon
Emmanuel Pregnon at pick No. 52 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick74
Rnd3
Jake Golday
A quiet steal in slot 74: Jake Golday for less than the market said. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick75
Rnd3
Ja'Kobi Lane
A tidy little value on Ja'Kobi Lane in the 75th overall pick, a step better than break-even. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick87
Rnd3
Max Klare
Max Klare in pick 87 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick90
Rnd3
Devin Moore
They did well to land Devin Moore in the Round 3 slot, just ahead of his grade. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick111
Rnd4
Nicholas Singleton
A slide stopped in No. 111, with Nicholas Singleton worth more than the price. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick126
Rnd4
Drew Allar
Drew Allar at Round 4, Pick 26 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick149
Rnd5
Domani Jackson
No edge and no loss on Domani Jackson in the Round 5 slot; it is a wash and a sensible one. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick176
Rnd5
DJ Campbell
DJ Campbell at slot 176 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick227
Rnd7
J. Michael Sturdivant
J. Michael Sturdivant at the 227th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick254
Rnd7
Micah Morris
They paid sticker price for Micah Morris in Round 7, Pick 38, and that is fine. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
