Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall D
ValueB+ NeedB- TradesF FutureB+
Branch should have been long gone. The Dolphins pounced, and earned a D.

The Dolphins lost the trade war and it was not close, handing partners the better end again and again. Put together, it is a D.

The Branch pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. Quarterback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

A rough weekend that leaves the roster with more questions than answers.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Caleb Downs
In pick 11 they get a two-high chess piece, and a steal at that.
Pick43 Rnd2 Olaivavega Ioane
Olaivavega Ioane in No. 43 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick75 Rnd3 Elijah Sarratt
The board fumbled Elijah Sarratt all the way to Round 3, Pick 11, and they scooped it up. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick87 Rnd3 Jake Golday
Taking Jake Golday in slot 87 is close to grand larceny; an edge rusher that good had no business lasting this long. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick89 Rnd3 Keionte Scott
Steal is underselling it; Keionte Scott at the 89th pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick94 Rnd3 Zachariah Branch
They will replay Zachariah Branch at the 94th overall pick for years; that is how good the value is. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick112 Rnd4 Michael Trigg
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Michael Trigg at Round 4, Pick 12 is the proof. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick115 Rnd4 Jack Endries
They did well to land Jack Endries in the 115th pick, just ahead of his grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick127 Rnd4 Will Lee III
Will Lee III at pick 127 is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick133 Rnd4 Logan Jones
They took Logan Jones at par in the Round 4 slot, which is nothing to complain about. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick149 Rnd5 Isaiah World
Isaiah World in slot 149 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick150 Rnd5 Demond Claiborne
By-the-book stuff, Demond Claiborne at the 150th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
Pick166 Rnd5 Domani Jackson
Value with a capital V on Domani Jackson in No. 166, a genuine coup. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick168 Rnd5 Louis Moore
A tidy bit of business in pick No. 168, where Louis Moore graded well above the range. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick171 Rnd5 Bryce Boettcher
Good price on Bryce Boettcher in the Round 5 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick177 Rnd5 Kaleb Proctor
Nice patience on Kaleb Proctor, who had no business lasting to pick No. 177. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick215 Rnd6 Harrison Wallace III
Harrison Wallace III at the 215th pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick227 Rnd7 Miller Moss
Miller Moss in pick 227 is fair value, right on his grade. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
