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

Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Dolphins spent the 253rd pick on Andrew Armstrong, a name most had 50 spots down the list. Call it a sensible B+, earned the boring way.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. The Emmanwori pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

The Fortune pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at tight end. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through tight end.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In the 31st overall pick they get a wrecking ball inside, outstanding value to boot. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick48 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
Steal is underselling it; Nick Emmanwori at pick No. 48 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick58 Rnd2 Aireontae Ersery
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Aireontae Ersery at slot 58 is the proof. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick79 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
They read the board right and Donovan Jackson was the payoff at Round 3, Pick 15. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick95 Rnd3 Darius Alexander
No drama and no debate, Darius Alexander went about where he belonged in No. 95. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick98 Rnd3 Zy Alexander
Zy Alexander in pick 98 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick116 Rnd4 Jalen Milroe
Jalen Milroe in Round 4, Pick 14 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick135 Rnd4 O'Donnell Fortune
They bypassed pressing needs at tight end to take O'Donnell Fortune, a cornerback that was not the priority.
Pick150 Rnd5 Antwaun Powell-Ryland
A reach on Antwaun Powell-Ryland in the 150th overall pick; the board had better options right there. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick155 Rnd5 Damien Martinez
They took Damien Martinez at par in the Round 5 slot, which is nothing to complain about. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick224 Rnd7 Cody Lindenberg
A real head-scratcher, Cody Lindenberg in slot 224 is miles ahead of his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick231 Rnd7 Ricky White III
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Ricky White III at the 231st pick. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick253 Rnd7 Andrew Armstrong
Andrew Armstrong at No. 253 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
