Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB TradesC FutureA
The Dolphins checked most of the boxes and earned a B.

Call it larceny. Kobe King sat on the board until the 224th pick, and the Dolphins did not need to be asked twice. No fireworks, but a solid B.

Uiagalelei has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. That wide receiver hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.

Good work on the whole, with wide receiver the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In pick No. 22 they get a wrecking ball inside at a price that makes it sweeter. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick63 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
Circle this one: Malaki Starks at the Round 2 slot is a fall that decides a draft. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick95 Rnd3 Hollin Pierce
Hollin Pierce at the Round 3 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick98 Rnd3 Luke Kandra
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Luke Kandra. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick114 Rnd4 Mason Taylor
Value with a capital V on Mason Taylor in the 114th overall pick, a genuine coup. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick128 Rnd4 Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo at the 128th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. The roster fit checks out.
Pick149 Rnd5 Demetrius Knight Jr.
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Demetrius Knight Jr. in slot 149, plain and simple. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick154 Rnd5 Jake Majors
Jake Majors at No. 154 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick164 Rnd5 DJ Uiagalelei
DJ Uiagalelei at pick 164 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick166 Rnd5 Shemar Turner
By-the-book stuff, Shemar Turner at pick No. 166 squarely in line with his ranking. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick224 Rnd7 Kobe King
Kobe King in pick 224 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick231 Rnd7 James Burnip
They barely believed it either: James Burnip still on the board at No. 231. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick252 Rnd7 Garrett Dellinger
They jumped the gun on Garrett Dellinger, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It fills a real need, too.
