Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall C
ValueF NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A passer of the future in Ewers, and a C, for the Dolphins.

Nobody else had Steve Linton anywhere near slot 150. The Dolphins did, by 264 spots, and that gap is the whole story. It washes out to a C, no better and no worse.

They have staked the next five years on Quinn Ewers, which is the only story that really matters here. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through wide receiver.

Hit on Quinn Ewers and the swing picks, and this ages a lot better than it grades today.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Quinn Ewers
In the Round 1 slot they get their guy under center for the next decade, though the board says they badly overpaid. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick48 Rnd2 Jonah Savaiinaea
Jonah Savaiinaea in the 48th overall pick is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick98 Rnd3 Addison West
Addison West at No. 98 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. The roster fit checks out.
Pick116 Rnd4 Emery Jones Jr.
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Emery Jones Jr.. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick135 Rnd4 Collin Oliver
They left a pile of value on the table to take Collin Oliver this early at slot 135. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick150 Rnd5 Steve Linton
Value said wait; Steve Linton in pick 150 says they were not listening. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick218 Rnd7 Howard Cross III
Howard Cross III at the Round 7 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick242 Rnd7 Torricelli Simpkins III
A wild overpay on Torricelli Simpkins III in pick No. 242, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick253 Rnd7 John Williams
John Williams at No. 253 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
