Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureA+
Larceny in pick No. 253 lands the Dolphins a B, Kone and all.

Thirty-one other rooms let Bilhal Kone slide, and the Dolphins were the ones holding the card at the 253rd pick. Highway robbery. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B.

The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The McLaughlin reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade.

Quarterback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it. The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Kenneth Grant
In pick 31 they get a disruptive interior force, outstanding value to boot. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick48 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
Jihaad Campbell is a better player than Round 2, Pick 16 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick57 Rnd2 Xavier Watts
Nice patience on Xavier Watts, who had no business lasting to slot 57. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick80 Rnd3 Mason Taylor
Mason Taylor in pick No. 80 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It fills a real need, too.
Pick98 Rnd3 Jalen Milroe
Jalen Milroe at No. 98 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick117 Rnd4 Xavier Restrepo
They let Xavier Restrepo come to them and pounced at the 117th pick. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick118 Rnd4 Cam Skattebo
The board had Cam Skattebo higher than the 118th overall pick, and the running back fell to them anyway. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick150 Rnd5 Malachi Moore
A slide stopped in the Round 5 slot, with Malachi Moore worth more than the price. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick155 Rnd5 Seth McLaughlin
A reach on Seth McLaughlin in the 155th overall pick; the board had better options right there. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick189 Rnd6 Tyler Cooper
They liked Tyler Cooper enough to skip the value, taking him in the 189th pick. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick224 Rnd7 Caleb Ransaw
Caleb Ransaw at pick No. 224 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick231 Rnd7 Alijah Huzzie
Alijah Huzzie slid further than he should have, and pick 231 is lovely value for the cornerback. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick253 Rnd7 Bilhal Kone
Taking Bilhal Kone in No. 253 is close to grand larceny; a cornerback that good had no business lasting this long. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
