Grand theft in the 75th pick: the Dolphins steal McNeil-Warren and grade out a B-.

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: Emmanuel McNeil-Warren, the No. 51 name on the board, stolen at pick 75.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. Reaching for Schrauth left real value on the table behind him.

They left with wide receiver solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Spencer Fano
Spencer Fano at No. 11 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The roster fit checks out.
Pick43 Rnd2 Brandon Cisse
The board had Brandon Cisse higher than the Round 2 slot, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick75 Rnd3 Emmanuel McNeil-Warren
They will replay Emmanuel McNeil-Warren at pick No. 75 for years; that is how good the value is. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick87 Rnd3 Elijah Sarratt
Elijah Sarratt slid further than he should have, and pick 87 is lovely value for the wide receiver. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick90 Rnd3 Sam Roush
By-the-book stuff, Sam Roush at the 90th pick squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick111 Rnd4 Billy Schrauth
They talked themselves into Billy Schrauth at Round 4, Pick 11, and the board did not agree. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick151 Rnd5 Beau Stephens
Beau Stephens in slot 151 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick227 Rnd7 Thaddeus Dixon
A quiet steal in the 227th overall pick: Thaddeus Dixon for less than the market said. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick238 Rnd7 Jeff Caldwell
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Jeff Caldwell at pick 238 is the proof. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
