Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall
B+
ValueB-
NeedB
TradesB
FutureA+
No fireworks, just a tidy B+ for the Dolphins. The move everyone will second-guess came early. The Dolphins reached some 69 spots for Taylen Green, and value like that does not grow back. More right than wrong, and a B+ to match.
If one pick saves this weekend, it is Prysock. Leaving edge rusher unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.
The Dolphins clearly valued win-now help, adding bodies who have done it before. They left with quarterback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.
In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.
Pick Analysis
Pick43
Rnd2
Emmanuel Pregnon
Good price on Emmanuel Pregnon in pick No. 43, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick75
Rnd3
Zachariah Branch
Zachariah Branch at No. 75 is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick87
Rnd3
Devin Moore
Nothing to complain about; Devin Moore went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick95
Rnd3
Michael Trigg
They paid sticker price for Michael Trigg in the 95th overall pick, and that is fine. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick111
Rnd4
Justin Joly
A tidy little value on Justin Joly in slot 111, a step better than break-even. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick112
Rnd4
Drew Allar
They talked themselves into Drew Allar at pick 112, and the board did not agree. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick116
Rnd4
Taylen Green
They left a pile of value on the table to take Taylen Green this early at No. 116. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick149
Rnd5
Tacario Davis
A reasonable price with a little left over, Tacario Davis in pick 149. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick189
Rnd6
J'Mari Taylor
J'Mari Taylor in the 189th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick205
Rnd6
Ephesians Prysock
They robbed the room for Ephesians Prysock here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick227
Rnd7
Zxavian Harris
The board had Zxavian Harris higher than pick No. 227, and the interior defensive lineman fell to them anyway. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick232
Rnd7
Jeff Caldwell
Jeff Caldwell slipping to Round 7, Pick 16 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick247
Rnd7
Trey Zuhn III
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Trey Zuhn III. It fills a real need, too.
Pick250
Rnd7
Bryce Foster
They took Bryce Foster at par in slot 250, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
