Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Dolphins robbed the room for Neal. Final grade: B-.

The Dolphins spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Devin Neal, the No. 81 name on the board, in pick No. 151.

The cost of the Vavao reach is exactly the players who went right after him. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.

They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Josh Simmons
In the 13th pick they get a building block for the line. A real need, handled.
Pick48 Rnd2 Trey Amos
Trey Amos at slot 48 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick98 Rnd3 Gunnar Helm
Gunnar Helm in pick No. 98 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick115 Rnd4 Vernon Broughton
A wild overpay on Vernon Broughton in pick 115, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick135 Rnd4 Tyler Cooper
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Tyler Cooper. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick151 Rnd5 Devin Neal
Somehow Devin Neal was still sitting there in No. 151, and they pounced on premier running back value. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick156 Rnd5 Tez Johnson
Tez Johnson in Round 5, Pick 17 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick226 Rnd7 Mac McWilliams
Mac McWilliams in the 226th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick233 Rnd7 R.J. Mickens
R.J. Mickens in No. 233 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick252 Rnd7 Mose Vavao
Mose Vavao at the 252nd overall pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
