Draft Grade — Dolphins

Grand theft in slot 224: the Dolphins steal Fairchild and grade out a B.

Somewhere a general manager is explaining how Dylan Fairchild got past him. The Dolphins do not have to explain a thing at the 224th pick. A sturdy weekend that grades out a B.

That wide receiver hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. Job largely done: quarterback settled and 6 of 8 of the wish list covered.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Wyatt Milum
In the 13th overall pick they get a long-term starter on the line. A real need, handled.
Pick48 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
They barely believed it either: Nick Emmanwori still on the board at the 48th pick. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick98 Rnd3 Cam Ward
You do not let a quarterback like Cam Ward reach the Round 3 slot and blink. They did not. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick114 Rnd4 Harold Fannin Jr.
They will replay Harold Fannin Jr. at Round 4, Pick 13 for years; that is how good the value is. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick133 Rnd4 Ashton Jeanty
Circle this one: Ashton Jeanty at slot 133 is a fall that decides a draft. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick149 Rnd5 Walter Nolen
Walter Nolen at pick No. 149 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick154 Rnd5 Aireontae Ersery
Aireontae Ersery at No. 154 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick224 Rnd7 Dylan Fairchild
The board fumbled Dylan Fairchild all the way to pick 224, and they scooped it up. The roster fit checks out.
Pick231 Rnd7 Lathan Ransom
Lathan Ransom in the Round 7 slot should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick252 Rnd7 Cody Simon
A linebacker of that caliber at Round 7, Pick 36 is the definition of value, full stop. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
