Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall
B+
ValueC
NeedB
TradesA+
FutureA+
The Dolphins worked the phones like thieves and earned a B+. The Dolphins torched the value chart for Aidan Hubbard, taking him 101 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted. They moved the roster forward and banked a B+ for it.
They robbed the room blind at the table, and it lifts the grade on its own. The Haulcy value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere.
A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want.
All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but interior defensive lineman.
Pick Analysis
Pick40
Rnd2
Brandon Cisse
Brandon Cisse at No. 40 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the cornerback. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick43
Rnd2
Blake Miller
Blake Miller at pick 43 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The roster fit checks out.
Pick75
Rnd3
A.J. Haulcy
Circle this one: A.J. Haulcy at the 75th pick is a fall that decides a draft. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick93
Rnd3
Drew Allar
They reached into another round for Drew Allar, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick94
Rnd3
Mason Reiger
They talked themselves into Mason Reiger at Round 3, Pick 30, and the board did not agree. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick95
Rnd3
Bryce Lance
A reasonable price with a little left over, Bryce Lance in slot 95. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick116
Rnd4
Max Llewellyn
A wild overpay on Max Llewellyn in Round 4, Pick 16, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick130
Rnd4
Quintayvious Hutchins
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Quintayvious Hutchins. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick227
Rnd7
Dane Key
They took Dane Key at par in the 227th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick229
Rnd7
John Michael Gyllenborg
They did well to land John Michael Gyllenborg in No. 229, just ahead of his grade. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick232
Rnd7
Robert Spears-Jennings
Robert Spears-Jennings at the Round 7 slot is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick238
Rnd7
Jack Kelly
Jack Kelly at slot 238 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick257
Rnd7
Aidan Hubbard
Value said wait; Aidan Hubbard in pick 257 says they were not listening. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
