Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall C+
ValueB NeedB- TradesF FutureA
The Dolphins lost the trade table, and the C+ tells the story.

There is conviction, and then there is this. The Dolphins took Haynes King a full 84 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend.

That is a safety worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly. They lost the exchange badly enough to drag the whole class down. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it.

Bottom line, the swing picks will decide whether this ages well.

Pick Analysis
Pick24 Rnd1 Sonny Styles
In No. 24 they get a coverage-and-run second-level piece at fair value.
Pick49 Rnd2 D'Angelo Ponds
No edge and no loss on D'Angelo Ponds in pick 49; it is a wash and a sensible one. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick75 Rnd3 Christen Miller
Christen Miller in slot 75 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick87 Rnd3 Eli Stowers
Somehow Eli Stowers was still sitting there in Round 3, Pick 23, and they pounced on premier tight end value. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick90 Rnd3 A.J. Haulcy
Taking A.J. Haulcy in the Round 3 slot is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick97 Rnd3 Austin Barber
They took Austin Barber at par in the 97th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick111 Rnd4 Skyler Bell
The board fumbled Skyler Bell all the way to slot 111, and they scooped it up. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick117 Rnd4 Sam Hecht
A offensive lineman of that caliber at the 117th overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick149 Rnd5 Taylen Green
A real head-scratcher, Taylen Green in No. 149 is miles ahead of his ranking. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick159 Rnd5 Skyler Gill-Howard
Skyler Gill-Howard at the Round 5 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick174 Rnd5 Aaron Graves
A slide stopped in the 174th pick, with Aaron Graves worth more than the price. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick183 Rnd6 Josh Moten
They reached into another round for Josh Moten, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick227 Rnd7 Haynes King
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Haynes King well ahead of where he belonged. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
