Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall D
ValueB- NeedB+ TradesF FutureB
The Dolphins left with their quarterback, and a D to match.

They will call it conviction in the building and a reach everywhere else: Haynes King, 71 picks early at the 227th overall pick. A D that will need time and luck to look better.

The dealing is the wound this class cannot quite close. So much rides on Fernando Mendoza that the rest of the class almost grades on a curve behind him.

They will answer for taking safety early while running back went begging. They will regret leaving running back for another day if the season turns on it.

The Taaffe pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch.

Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even.

Pick Analysis
Pick2 Rnd1 Fernando Mendoza
In slot 2 they get a franchise quarterback. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick59 Rnd2 Sonny Styles
Sonny Styles at pick No. 59 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It fills a real need, too.
Pick67 Rnd3 Eli Stowers
Eli Stowers at pick 67 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick85 Rnd3 Michael Taaffe
A top-tier safety at a bargain, Michael Taaffe in No. 85, plain and simple. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick86 Rnd3 Zion Young
No drama and no debate, Zion Young went about where he belonged in Round 3, Pick 22. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick88 Rnd3 Omar Cooper Jr.
They took Omar Cooper Jr. at par in the 88th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick112 Rnd4 Charles Jagusah
A premium they did not need to pay, Charles Jagusah a notch or two before his time. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick129 Rnd4 Tim Keenan III
Tim Keenan III at No. 129 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick130 Rnd4 Bryce Lance
A clean, defensible pick in the 130th pick with a little surplus value in Bryce Lance. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick136 Rnd4 Bray Hubbard
A want over a need in the 136th overall pick: Bray Hubbard adds a safety while running back keeps waiting.
Pick150 Rnd5 Aaron Graves
A big swing on Aaron Graves at the Round 5 slot, well ahead of any board in the building. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick154 Rnd5 Tanner Koziol
Tanner Koziol at Round 5, Pick 14 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick178 Rnd5 Aamil Wagner
They paid sticker price for Aamil Wagner in slot 178, and that is fine. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick192 Rnd6 Bud Clark
They liked Bud Clark enough to skip the value, taking him in pick 192. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
Pick208 Rnd6 Josh Moten
Good price on Josh Moten in the 208th pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick227 Rnd7 Haynes King
Haynes King at No. 227 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
