Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall D
ValueB NeedB- TradesF FutureA
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Dolphins and Cooper: D.

You can lose a draft before you make a pick. The Dolphins did it at the trade table, overpaying to chase players the board did not price nearly as high. Hard to defend, and the D reflects that.

Milton III has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. They banked enough surplus on Cooper to cover a lot of smaller sins.

In short, the board sent warnings, and they will be hoping it was wrong.

Pick Analysis
Pick19 Rnd1 Taliese Fuaga
In Round 1, Pick 19 they get a cornerstone up front. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick22 Rnd1 Kool-Aid McKinstry
They did well to land Kool-Aid McKinstry in the 22nd pick, just ahead of his grade. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick51 Rnd2 Patrick Paul
Patrick Paul at pick 51 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the offensive lineman. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick53 Rnd2 T'Vondre Sweat
T'Vondre Sweat in the Round 2 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick69 Rnd3 Kingsley Suamataia
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Kingsley Suamataia at the 69th overall pick. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick82 Rnd3 Edgerrin Cooper
Steal is underselling it; Edgerrin Cooper at slot 82 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick97 Rnd3 Malachi Corley
Circle this one: Malachi Corley at pick No. 97 is a fall that decides a draft. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick138 Rnd5 Cedric Gray
Cedric Gray in the Round 5 slot is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It fills a real need, too.
Pick154 Rnd5 Dallin Holker
Dallin Holker slid further than he should have, and the 154th overall pick is lovely value for the tight end. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick155 Rnd5 Nehemiah Pritchett
Nehemiah Pritchett slipping to Round 5, Pick 19 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick160 Rnd5 Joe Milton III
They went early on Joe Milton III in slot 160, and the value did not follow. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick171 Rnd5 Zion Tupuola-Fetui
They paid sticker price for Zion Tupuola-Fetui in the 171st pick, and that is fine. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick186 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
Curtis Jacobs at pick 186 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick199 Rnd6 Josh Proctor
Nothing to complain about; Josh Proctor went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick239 Rnd7 Jawhar Jordan
Jawhar Jordan at the 239th pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
