Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B
ValueA- NeedC+ TradesB+ FutureB-
Larceny in the Round 7 slot lands the Dolphins a B, Borregales and all.

When a board-topper like Andres Borregales slides to slot 252, you do not overthink it, and the Dolphins did not. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

The Winston Jr. pick reads as want over need, and the roster will feel it at quarterback, wide receiver and other spots. Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same. Interior defensive lineman was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick22 Rnd1 Malaki Starks
In pick 22 they get a rangy last line of defense at a price that makes it sweeter.
Pick48 Rnd2 Jihaad Campbell
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Jihaad Campbell at the 48th overall pick is the proof. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick51 Rnd2 Tate Ratledge
They paid sticker price for Tate Ratledge in the Round 2 slot, and that is fine. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick86 Rnd3 Alfred Collins
Taking Alfred Collins in No. 86 is close to grand larceny; an interior defensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick98 Rnd3 Dylan Fairchild
Dylan Fairchild at slot 98 is money in the bank, a offensive lineman taken below his worth. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick114 Rnd4 Kevin Winston Jr.
Of all the spots to shop, they chose safety. Kevin Winston Jr. in Round 4, Pick 13 leaves quarterback, wide receiver and other spots for later.
Pick123 Rnd4 Mason Taylor
A tight end of that caliber at the 123rd pick is the definition of value, full stop. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick133 Rnd4 Smael Mondon Jr.
They robbed the room for Smael Mondon Jr. here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick149 Rnd5 Jake Majors
They will replay Jake Majors at the Round 5 slot for years; that is how good the value is. The roster fit checks out.
Pick154 Rnd5 Daylen Everette
Steal is underselling it; Daylen Everette at Round 5, Pick 17 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick224 Rnd7 Rod Moore
Rod Moore at No. 224 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick231 Rnd7 Seth McLaughlin
A top-tier offensive lineman at a bargain, Seth McLaughlin in pick No. 231, plain and simple. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick252 Rnd7 Andres Borregales
You do not let a specialist like Andres Borregales reach the 252nd overall pick and blink. They did not. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
