Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB- TradesA- FutureB-
The Dolphins did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B.

The war room fell hard for Ty Hamilton, and it showed at pick No. 224: 30 picks ahead of a board that had other ideas.

Landing Watts that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

The trade work was a quiet net positive. They reloaded the coverage unit in bulk.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Will Johnson
In the 13th pick they get a ballhawk on the outside. Need was not the driver here.
Pick59 Rnd2 Xavier Watts
Xavier Watts is a better player than pick No. 59 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick60 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
They did well to land Alfred Collins in slot 60, just ahead of his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick119 Rnd4 Cam Skattebo
Value with a capital V on Cam Skattebo in the 119th overall pick, a genuine coup. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick135 Rnd4 Cody Simon
Fair-plus on Cody Simon, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. The roster fit checks out.
Pick138 Rnd4 Nick Nash
Nick Nash at pick 138 jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick150 Rnd5 Malachi Moore
Malachi Moore slid further than he should have, and the 150th pick is lovely value for the safety. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick155 Rnd5 O'Donnell Fortune
A clean, defensible pick in the 155th overall pick with a little surplus value in O'Donnell Fortune. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick189 Rnd6 Jack Kiser
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jack Kiser in pick No. 189. It fills a real need, too.
Pick224 Rnd7 Ty Hamilton
They reached a country mile for Ty Hamilton at No. 224, and the board is aghast. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick227 Rnd7 Cam Horsley
A premium they did not need to pay, Cam Horsley a notch or two before his time. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick231 Rnd7 Tonka Hemingway
They talked themselves into Tonka Hemingway at slot 231, and the board did not agree. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick253 Rnd7 LaJohntay Wester
Good price on LaJohntay Wester in pick 253, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
