Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Dolphins for Trotter: B-.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Dolphins watched Josiah Trotter slide 27 picks past his grade and did not hesitate. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. The cost of the Lomu reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Caleb Lomu
In slot 11 they get a cornerstone up front, though the board says they badly overpaid.
Pick43 Rnd2 Dillon Thieneman
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Dillon Thieneman at the Round 2 slot is the proof. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick75 Rnd3 Garrett Nussmeier
They took Garrett Nussmeier at par in pick 75, which is nothing to complain about. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick87 Rnd3 Domonique Orange
Value with a capital V on Domonique Orange in the 87th overall pick, a genuine coup. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick90 Rnd3 Josiah Trotter
Somehow Josiah Trotter was still sitting there in pick No. 90, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. The roster fit checks out.
Pick111 Rnd4 Kaytron Allen
Kaytron Allen at Round 4, Pick 11 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick149 Rnd5 Chase Roberts
Chase Roberts at the 149th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick227 Rnd7 Gunner Stockton
A slide stopped in No. 227, with Gunner Stockton worth more than the price. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
