Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall A-
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesA+ FutureA+
Nobody dealt better than the Dolphins this weekend: A-.

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 Micah Morris in the 238th pick.

The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. The Slaughter steal is the beam this whole class leans on.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.

Bottom line, with Gabe Jacas leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.

Pick Analysis
Pick43 Rnd2 Gabe Jacas
Gabe Jacas in pick 43 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick62 Rnd2 Eli Stowers
They let Eli Stowers come to them and pounced at the 62nd pick. It fills a real need, too.
Pick75 Rnd3 Jake Slaughter
Steal is underselling it; Jake Slaughter at No. 75 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick87 Rnd3 Devin Moore
Devin Moore at the Round 3 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick108 Rnd4 Michael Trigg
Nothing to complain about; Michael Trigg went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. The roster fit checks out.
Pick112 Rnd4 Nicholas Singleton
Nicholas Singleton is a better player than the 112th overall pick suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick126 Rnd4 Eli Raridon
By-the-book stuff, Eli Raridon at No. 126 squarely in line with his ranking. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick151 Rnd5 Isaiah World
Isaiah World at pick No. 151 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick165 Rnd5 Jalen Farmer
A quiet steal in the 165th pick: Jalen Farmer for less than the market said. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick168 Rnd5 Domani Jackson
They took Domani Jackson at par in pick 168, which is nothing to complain about. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick170 Rnd5 Ted Hurst
A straight-up fair deal on Ted Hurst at slot 170, value and slot in agreement. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick221 Rnd7 Jeff Caldwell
Jeff Caldwell at the Round 7 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick225 Rnd7 Raylen Wilson
A market-rate linebacker, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Raylen Wilson. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick227 Rnd7 Charles Demmings
Charles Demmings in the 227th overall pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick228 Rnd7 Nolan Rucci
A big swing on Nolan Rucci at pick 228, well ahead of any board in the building. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick235 Rnd7 Logan Taylor
They left a pile of value on the table to take Logan Taylor this early at Round 7, Pick 19. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick238 Rnd7 Micah Morris
Value said wait; Micah Morris in the Round 7 slot says they were not listening. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
