Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall D
ValueC+ NeedA- TradesF FutureB+
The Dolphins finally solved quarterback, and it carried them to a D.

The Dolphins torched the value chart for R.J. Oben, taking him 106 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted. The math is unkind, and the D follows.

Cam Ward gives the offense a face and a plan, and the grade leans heavily on whether he hits. They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down.

The Moore steal is the beam this whole class leans on. The Moore pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at running back and linebacker.

For all the activity, running back went untouched, which is hard to explain.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, running back very much included.

Pick Analysis
Pick3 Rnd1 Cam Ward
In the Round 1 slot they get the arm they will build around. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick98 Rnd3 Andrew Mukuba
Andrew Mukuba at No. 98 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick114 Rnd4 Ricky White III
Ricky White III in pick 114 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick128 Rnd4 Malachi Moore
Of all the spots to shop, they chose safety. Malachi Moore in slot 128 leaves running back and linebacker for later.
Pick133 Rnd4 Luke Kandra
Luke Kandra at the 133rd pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick149 Rnd5 Connor Colby
Connor Colby at the 149th overall pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick154 Rnd5 Shemar Turner
Shemar Turner at pick No. 154 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick224 Rnd7 Terrance Ferguson
A clean, defensible pick in the 224th pick with a little surplus value in Terrance Ferguson. It fills a real need, too.
Pick231 Rnd7 Seth McLaughlin
Taking Seth McLaughlin in pick 231 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick252 Rnd7 R.J. Oben
This one needs a full-page explanation: R.J. Oben in slot 252, miles early. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
