Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B+
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Dolphins a B+.

The Hykeem Williams selection is the head-turner. The Dolphins reached 50 spots for him, and it will define how this weekend is remembered.

Lew at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. The phones were where this weekend was really won.

They will answer for taking safety early while edge rusher, interior defensive lineman and other spots went begging. That edge rusher hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but edge rusher.

Pick Analysis
Pick18 Rnd1 Chris Brazzell II
In the 18th pick they get a home-run threat at receiver, though they paid up to get him. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick49 Rnd2 Caleb Tiernan
They paid sticker price for Caleb Tiernan in No. 49, and that is fine. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick58 Rnd2 Emmanuel McNeil-Warren
A clean, defensible pick in pick No. 58 with a little surplus value in Emmanuel McNeil-Warren. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick75 Rnd3 Eli Stowers
Eli Stowers in the 75th overall pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It fills a real need, too.
Pick87 Rnd3 Devin Moore
Devin Moore at Round 3, Pick 23 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick90 Rnd3 Zakee Wheatley
A curious use of pick 90. Edge rusher, interior defensive lineman and other spots needed the pick; a safety in Zakee Wheatley did not.
Pick92 Rnd3 Michael Trigg
A premium they did not need to pay, Michael Trigg a notch or two before his time. The roster fit checks out.
Pick97 Rnd3 Connor Lew
They robbed the room for Connor Lew here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick111 Rnd4 Tacario Davis
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending the Round 4 slot on Tacario Davis with edge rusher, interior defensive lineman and other spots unsolved.
Pick120 Rnd4 Mike Washington Jr.
They did well to land Mike Washington Jr. in pick No. 120, just ahead of his grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick127 Rnd4 Eli Raridon
They took Eli Raridon at par in the 127th pick, which is nothing to complain about. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick151 Rnd5 Drew Allar
Fair-plus on Drew Allar, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick152 Rnd5 Domani Jackson
Domani Jackson at slot 152 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick227 Rnd7 Jeff Caldwell
Jeff Caldwell in pick 227 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick236 Rnd7 Bryce Foster
Bryce Foster in pick No. 236 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick238 Rnd7 Hykeem Williams
A wild overpay on Hykeem Williams in Round 7, Pick 22, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
