Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
The Dolphins won the night they stopped Joly from sliding. Grade: B-.

The Dolphins did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Justin Joly fell into pick 151.

The cost of the McClellan reach is exactly the players who went right after him. The running back spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. Quarterback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Peter Woods
In pick 11 they get a quarterback's worst nightmare at fair value. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick43 Rnd2 Gennings Dunker
They paid sticker price for Gennings Dunker in pick No. 43, and that is fine. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick75 Rnd3 Garrett Nussmeier
A market-rate quarterback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Garrett Nussmeier. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick87 Rnd3 Elijah Sarratt
Elijah Sarratt at the 87th overall pick is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick90 Rnd3 Kamari Ramsey
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Kamari Ramsey in Round 3, Pick 26. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick111 Rnd4 Chris McClellan
Chris McClellan at slot 111 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick151 Rnd5 Justin Joly
Justin Joly in No. 151 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick227 Rnd7 Logan Fano
A conviction pick on Logan Fano at the Round 7 slot that the board grades a round light. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick238 Rnd7 Andre Fuller
A tidy little value on Andre Fuller in Round 7, Pick 22, a step better than break-even. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
