Best value of the weekend goes to the Dolphins for Klein: A-. When a board-topper like Marlin Klein slides to the 207th pick, you do not overthink it, and the Dolphins did not. Just about everything broke right, and the A- follows.
The phones were where this weekend was really won. Reaching for Caldwell left real value on the table behind him.
They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it. The Moore pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at edge rusher and running back.
In the end it comes back to Chris Brazzell II, and a haul good enough to build on right away.
Pick Analysis
Pick26
Rnd1
Chris Brazzell II
In Round 1, Pick 26 they get a weapon on the perimeter at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick63
Rnd2
Omar Cooper Jr.
They read the board right and Omar Cooper Jr. was the payoff at slot 63. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick75
Rnd3
Keionte Scott
Keionte Scott in the 75th pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick87
Rnd3
Devin Moore
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending pick 87 on Devin Moore with edge rusher and running back unsolved.
Pick90
Rnd3
Jacob Rodriguez
A slide stopped in the 90th overall pick, with Jacob Rodriguez worth more than the price. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick95
Rnd3
Michael Trigg
They paid a round early for Michael Trigg in pick No. 95, more than the board wanted. The roster fit checks out.
Pick111
Rnd4
Justin Joly
By-the-book stuff, Justin Joly at the Round 4 slot squarely in line with his ranking. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick125
Rnd4
Bryce Lance
They did well to land Bryce Lance in No. 125, just ahead of his grade. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick131
Rnd4
Isaiah World
Isaiah World in pick No. 131 is fair value, right on his grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick149
Rnd5
Drew Allar
Fair-plus on Drew Allar, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick169
Rnd5
Domani Jackson
Domani Jackson slipping to the Round 5 slot is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick189
Rnd6
Jeff Caldwell
A real head-scratcher, Jeff Caldwell in No. 189 is miles ahead of his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick207
Rnd6
Marlin Klein
They robbed the room for Marlin Klein here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It fills a real need, too.
Pick210
Rnd6
Zxavian Harris
They liked Zxavian Harris enough to skip the value, taking him in the 210th overall pick. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick227
Rnd7
Raylen Wilson
Raylen Wilson at Round 7, Pick 11 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
