FutureA
A solid, sensible weekend for the Dolphins: B. The rest of the league had time to spare on Daevin Hobbs; the Dolphins did not wait, grabbing him 43 spots ahead at the 227th overall pick.
The Prysock pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want.
They squeezed a little extra out of every move they made.
Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.
Pick Analysis
Pick31
Rnd1
Chris Brazzell II
In pick 31 they get a weapon on the perimeter at fair value. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick43
Rnd2
Anthony Hill Jr.
A tidy little value on Anthony Hill Jr. in slot 43, a step better than break-even. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick75
Rnd3
Devin Moore
A premium they did not need to pay, Devin Moore a notch or two before his time. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick87
Rnd3
Zakee Wheatley
Nothing to complain about; Zakee Wheatley went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick89
Rnd3
Sam Hecht
A clean, defensible pick in pick No. 89 with a little surplus value in Sam Hecht. It fills a real need, too.
Pick90
Rnd3
Markel Bell
Markel Bell in the 90th pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick91
Rnd3
Ar'maj Reed-Adams
They talked themselves into Ar'maj Reed-Adams at the 91st overall pick, and the board did not agree. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick111
Rnd4
Dametrious Crownover
They reached a country mile for Dametrious Crownover at No. 111, and the board is aghast. The roster fit checks out.
Pick112
Rnd4
Isaiah World
They reached into another round for Isaiah World, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick120
Rnd4
Jalen Farmer
This one needs a full-page explanation: Jalen Farmer in pick No. 120, miles early. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick126
Rnd4
Eli Raridon
A market-rate tight end, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Eli Raridon. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick129
Rnd4
Justin Joly
They will replay Justin Joly at the 129th pick for years; that is how good the value is. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick149
Rnd5
Domani Jackson
Domani Jackson at the Round 5 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick150
Rnd5
Marlin Klein
A wild overpay on Marlin Klein in slot 150, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick163
Rnd5
Ted Hurst
A conviction pick on Ted Hurst at No. 163 that the board grades a round light. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick177
Rnd5
Taylen Green
They went early on Taylen Green in Round 5, Pick 39, and the value did not follow. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick207
Rnd6
Ephesians Prysock
A cornerback of that caliber at pick 207 is the definition of value, full stop. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick215
Rnd6
Zxavian Harris
They paid sticker price for Zxavian Harris in the Round 6 slot, and that is fine. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick221
Rnd7
Jeff Caldwell
They took Jeff Caldwell at par in the 221st pick, which is nothing to complain about. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick225
Rnd7
Bryce Foster
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Bryce Foster. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick227
Rnd7
Daevin Hobbs
A real head-scratcher, Daevin Hobbs in pick No. 227 is miles ahead of his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick239
Rnd7
Nolan Rucci
Nolan Rucci at slot 239 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick241
Rnd7
Adam Randall
Adam Randall in Round 7, Pick 25 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick254
Rnd7
Riley Mahlman
Riley Mahlman at the Round 7 slot is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
