Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B-
ValueC- NeedB+ TradesB- FutureB-
A franchise passer in Dart headlines a B- weekend for the Dolphins.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Carson Vinson at the 98th overall pick, a reach of 126 spots that the board flatly disagrees with.

Jaxson Dart gives the offense a face and a plan, and the grade leans heavily on whether he hits. The Horton pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through edge rusher.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Jaxson Dart
In pick 13 they get the arm they will build around, a steep price for the projection. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick48 Rnd2 Benjamin Morrison
Good price on Benjamin Morrison in slot 48, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick98 Rnd3 Carson Vinson
A real head-scratcher, Carson Vinson in the 98th pick is miles ahead of his ranking. It fills a real need, too.
Pick116 Rnd4 Jordan Phillips
Jordan Phillips slid further than he should have, and No. 116 is lovely value for the interior defensive lineman. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick135 Rnd4 Addison West
They talked themselves into Addison West at the 135th overall pick, and the board did not agree. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick150 Rnd5 Tory Horton
Somehow Tory Horton was still sitting there in the Round 5 slot, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick155 Rnd5 LeQuint Allen
LeQuint Allen at the Round 5 slot is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick224 Rnd7 Upton Stout
Taking Upton Stout in Round 7, Pick 8 is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick231 Rnd7 Jackson Hawes
Jackson Hawes at pick No. 231 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick253 Rnd7 Drew Kendall
They reached into another round for Drew Kendall, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
