Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall

FutureA-
The Dolphins cashed the board's mistake on Wheatley: C. Call it larceny. Zakee Wheatley sat on the board until the 111th overall pick, and the Dolphins did not need to be asked twice.
They handed away value on the phones that the picks cannot earn back. Spending an early pick on cornerback with edge rusher, running back and other spots open is the decision the grade keeps circling back to. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want.
Bottom line, the swing picks will decide whether this ages well.
Pick Analysis
Pick27
Rnd1
Avieon Terrell
In Round 1, Pick 27 they get a potential shutdown corner at a price that makes it sweeter. More want than need.
Pick43
Rnd2
Dontay Corleone
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Dontay Corleone at the 43rd pick is the proof. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick75
Rnd3
Keith Abney II
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Keith Abney II at cornerback with edge rusher, running back and other spots open.
Pick83
Rnd3
Max Klare
Circle this one: Max Klare at the Round 3 slot is a fall that decides a draft. The roster fit checks out.
Pick87
Rnd3
Omar Cooper Jr.
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Omar Cooper Jr. in slot 87. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick90
Rnd3
Skyler Bell
Skyler Bell at pick No. 90 is money in the bank, a wide receiver taken below his worth. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick111
Rnd4
Zakee Wheatley
A top-tier safety at a bargain, Zakee Wheatley in the 111th overall pick, plain and simple. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick127
Rnd4
Jaeden Roberts
Nice patience on Jaeden Roberts, who had no business lasting to pick 127. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick133
Rnd4
Logan Jones
A clean, defensible pick in the 133rd overall pick with a little surplus value in Logan Jones. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick149
Rnd5
Kage Casey
Kage Casey slipping to pick 149 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick157
Rnd5
Drew Allar
Somehow Drew Allar was still sitting there in the 157th pick, and they pounced on premier quarterback value. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick198
Rnd6
Thaddeus Dixon
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Thaddeus Dixon at Round 6, Pick 19. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
