Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB- TradesB- FutureA
The Dolphins kept it disciplined and banked a B.

Nobody else had Logan Parr anywhere near Round 7, Pick 8. The Dolphins did, by 44 spots, and that gap is the whole story. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Knight Jr.. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. It is a bet on later, and a defensible one for a team playing the long game.

They left with quarterback solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Armand Membou
In pick 26 they get a plug-and-play piece up front at a price that makes it sweeter. A real need, handled.
Pick48 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
Steal is underselling it; Malaki Starks at Round 2, Pick 16 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick98 Rnd3 Demetrius Knight Jr.
Taking Demetrius Knight Jr. in the 98th pick is close to grand larceny; a linebacker that good had no business lasting this long. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick116 Rnd4 Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo slipping to No. 116 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick135 Rnd4 Dorian Strong
A tidy bit of business in slot 135, where Dorian Strong graded well above the range. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick150 Rnd5 Tyler Shough
Tyler Shough slid further than he should have, and the 150th overall pick is lovely value for the quarterback. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick155 Rnd5 Willie Lampkin
This one needs a full-page explanation: Willie Lampkin in pick No. 155, miles early. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick195 Rnd6 Kyle Williams
Kyle Williams in pick 195 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick224 Rnd7 Logan Parr
Logan Parr at the Round 7 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick231 Rnd7 Carson Vinson
Carson Vinson at No. 231 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It fills a real need, too.
Pick253 Rnd7 Cam Horsley
A interior defensive lineman of that caliber at slot 253 is the definition of value, full stop. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
