Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall

FutureB
The Dolphins checked most of the boxes and earned a B-. Call it larceny. Derrick Harmon sat on the board until pick No. 49, and the Dolphins did not need to be asked twice.
The Moore pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with quarterback, edge rusher and other spots still on the board. They punted on quarterback, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.
Reaching for Cornelius left real value on the table behind him. The Dolphins paired the rookies with proven help, Devonte Wyatt leading the way.
Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.
Pick Analysis
Pick23
Rnd1
Shavon Revel Jr.
They took Shavon Revel Jr. at par in the 23rd pick, which is nothing to complain about. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick49
Rnd2
Derrick Harmon
Derrick Harmon at pick 49 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick98
Rnd3
Kevin Winston Jr.
Kevin Winston Jr. at the 98th pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick116
Rnd4
Tai Felton
Tai Felton in No. 116 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick135
Rnd4
Malachi Moore
Of all the spots to shop, they chose safety. Malachi Moore in pick No. 135 leaves quarterback, edge rusher and other spots for later.
Pick150
Rnd5
O'Donnell Fortune
They paid sticker price for O'Donnell Fortune in the 150th overall pick, and that is fine. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick153
Rnd5
Ajani Cornelius
They reached into another round for Ajani Cornelius, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick155
Rnd5
Jonah Monheim
A premium they did not need to pay, Jonah Monheim a notch or two before his time. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick193
Rnd6
CJ West
CJ West at the Round 6 slot nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick224
Rnd7
Desmond Watson
By-the-book stuff, Desmond Watson at Round 7, Pick 8 squarely in line with his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick231
Rnd7
Cam Jackson
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Cam Jackson. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick253
Rnd7
Roc Taylor
Roc Taylor in pick No. 253 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
