Larceny in slot 95 lands the Dolphins a B, Klare and all. If you want a masterclass in dealing, watch the Dolphins, who turned every swap into a profit this weekend. They moved the roster forward and banked a B for it.
A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. That Klare pick is the receipt they will wave around later. With quarterback, edge rusher and other spots unsolved, spending premium capital on cornerback is the choice that costs them.
If Brown pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about.
In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.
Pick Analysis
Pick32
Rnd1
A.J. Harris
In the 32nd pick they get a press-man option on the boundary, and a steal at that. More want than need.
Pick43
Rnd2
Olaivavega Ioane
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Olaivavega Ioane. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick47
Rnd2
Trevor Goosby
A reach on Trevor Goosby in pick 47; the board had better options right there. The roster fit checks out.
Pick66
Rnd3
Colton Hood
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Colton Hood at cornerback with quarterback, edge rusher and other spots open.
Pick75
Rnd3
Ian Strong
Ian Strong at the Round 3 slot is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick78
Rnd3
Brian Parker II
They liked Brian Parker II enough to skip the value, taking him in the 78th overall pick. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick95
Rnd3
Max Klare
The board fumbled Max Klare all the way to pick No. 95, and they scooped it up. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick111
Rnd4
Nicholas Singleton
A slide stopped in No. 111, with Nicholas Singleton worth more than the price. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick116
Rnd4
Harold Perkins Jr.
A quiet steal in the 116th pick: Harold Perkins Jr. for less than the market said. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick151
Rnd5
Iapani Laloulu
A straight-up fair deal on Iapani Laloulu at the 151st overall pick, value and slot in agreement. It fills a real need, too.
Pick172
Rnd5
Monroe Mills
They went early on Monroe Mills in the Round 5 slot, and the value did not follow. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick225
Rnd7
Barion Brown
Value said wait; Barion Brown in Round 7, Pick 11 says they were not listening. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
