Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesB FutureB-
Grand theft in No. 241: the Dolphins steal Williams and grade out a B.

Somebody in the 241st overall pick was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Dolphins sat still while Evan Williams, the No. 215 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick29 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In the Round 1 slot they get protection for the quarterback at a price that makes it sweeter. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick55 Rnd2 Braden Fiske
Braden Fiske at pick 55 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick61 Rnd2 Edgerrin Cooper
A tidy bit of business in the 61st pick, where Edgerrin Cooper graded well above the range. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick158 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
A slide stopped in pick No. 158, with Luke McCaffrey worth more than the price. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick164 Rnd5 Jared Wiley
A straight-up fair deal on Jared Wiley at slot 164, value and slot in agreement. The roster fit checks out.
Pick184 Rnd6 Dwight McGlothern
Dwight McGlothern in No. 184 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick198 Rnd6 Cornelius Johnson
Cornelius Johnson slipping to the 198th overall pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick241 Rnd7 Evan Williams
Steal is underselling it; Evan Williams at Round 7, Pick 21 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
