Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Dolphins kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

The Dolphins went off the board in a big way for Elijhah Badger, 52 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another. No fireworks, but a solid B-.

Taylor at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.

Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job. The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
Good price on Nick Emmanwori in slot 13, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick49 Rnd2 Jack Sawyer
You do not let an edge rusher like Jack Sawyer reach the 49th overall pick and blink. They did not. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick98 Rnd3 JT Tuimoloau
Circle this one: JT Tuimoloau at pick No. 98 is a fall that decides a draft. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick99 Rnd3 Luke Kandra
A conviction pick on Luke Kandra at the 99th pick that the board grades a round light. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick116 Rnd4 Barrett Carter
Barrett Carter at pick 116 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick151 Rnd5 Mason Taylor
Steal is underselling it; Mason Taylor at the Round 5 slot is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick159 Rnd5 Ricky White III
Ricky White III in No. 159 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick225 Rnd7 Clay Webb
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Clay Webb. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick233 Rnd7 Elijhah Badger
A wild overpay on Elijhah Badger in the Round 7 slot, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick251 Rnd7 Terrance Ferguson
They barely believed it either: Terrance Ferguson still on the board at pick No. 251. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
