Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesD FutureA+
A solid, sensible weekend for the Dolphins: B-.

You can fall in love with a player. You are not supposed to marry him in the wrong round. The Dolphins did exactly that with Marvin Jones Jr. in the 252nd overall pick.

That Allar pick is the receipt they will wave around later. They punted on linebacker, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

The hoard sets up next April more than it helps this September.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick43 Rnd2 Emmanuel Pregnon
Emmanuel Pregnon at No. 43 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It fills a real need, too.
Pick75 Rnd3 Keionte Scott
Value with a capital V on Keionte Scott in pick No. 75, a genuine coup. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick88 Rnd3 Nicholas Singleton
A premium they did not need to pay, Nicholas Singleton a notch or two before his time. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick90 Rnd3 Michael Trigg
Michael Trigg at the 90th overall pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick111 Rnd4 Justin Joly
Justin Joly in the 111th pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. The roster fit checks out.
Pick113 Rnd4 Isaiah World
Isaiah World at slot 113 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick126 Rnd4 Bud Clark
No drama and no debate, Bud Clark went about where he belonged in Round 4, Pick 26. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick149 Rnd5 Domani Jackson
A straight-up fair deal on Domani Jackson at pick No. 149, value and slot in agreement. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick166 Rnd5 Drew Allar
The board fumbled Drew Allar all the way to pick 166, and they scooped it up. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick173 Rnd5 Marlin Klein
Marlin Klein in the 173rd overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick227 Rnd7 Zxavian Harris
Zxavian Harris slipping to the 227th pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick233 Rnd7 Jeff Caldwell
A slide stopped in slot 233, with Jeff Caldwell worth more than the price. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick252 Rnd7 Marvin Jones Jr.
They reached into another round for Marvin Jones Jr., and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
