Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall
D
ValueB+
NeedB-
TradesF
FutureB
Best value of the weekend goes to the Dolphins for Singleton Jr.: D. The Dolphins lost the trade war and it was not close, handing partners the better end again and again.
The King reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. The edge rusher hole is the one line item this class does not answer.
The Singleton Jr. pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. The Dolphins paired the rookies with proven help, Brian Branch leading the way.
In short, the board sent warnings, and they will be hoping it was wrong.
Pick Analysis
Pick4
Rnd1
Caleb Downs
In the Round 1 slot they get a ballhawk on the back end. Need was not the driver here.
Pick35
Rnd2
Carnell Tate
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Carnell Tate at No. 35. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick44
Rnd2
Garrett Nussmeier
Circle this one: Garrett Nussmeier at the 44th overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick50
Rnd2
Anthony Hill Jr.
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Anthony Hill Jr. in slot 50. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick66
Rnd3
Arvell Reese
A quiet steal in the 66th pick: Arvell Reese for less than the market said. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick73
Rnd3
Daylen Everette
Steal is underselling it; Daylen Everette at pick No. 73 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick101
Rnd4
Eric Singleton Jr.
Taking Eric Singleton Jr. in slot 101 is close to grand larceny; a wide receiver that good had no business lasting this long. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick108
Rnd4
Harold Perkins Jr.
Nice patience on Harold Perkins Jr., who had no business lasting to the 108th pick. The roster fit checks out.
Pick120
Rnd4
Drew Allar
A slide stopped in Round 4, Pick 20, with Drew Allar worth more than the price. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick136
Rnd4
Zachariah Branch
They barely believed it either: Zachariah Branch still on the board at pick 136. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick146
Rnd5
DJ Campbell
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for DJ Campbell. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick167
Rnd5
Nic Anderson
Somehow Nic Anderson was still sitting there in the 167th overall pick, and they pounced on premier wide receiver value. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick180
Rnd5
Earnest Greene III
Earnest Greene III slipping to No. 180 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick188
Rnd6
Evan Stewart
They did well to land Evan Stewart in pick No. 188, just ahead of his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick223
Rnd7
Cayden Lee
Cayden Lee in Round 7, Pick 5 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick227
Rnd7
De'Zhaun Stribling
De'Zhaun Stribling in pick 227 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick248
Rnd7
Diego Pavia
Diego Pavia at No. 248 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick253
Rnd7
Haynes King
Haynes King at the Round 7 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
