The phones were a trap the Dolphins kept walking into, shipping out surplus on nearly every deal.
If Smith-Wade pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up.
The Rosemy-Jacksaint steal is the beam this whole class leans on.
Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, quarterback very much included.
Pick-by-Pick
No drama and no debate, Troy Fautanu went about where he belonged in pick No. 23. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
A conviction pick on Bralen Trice at slot 55 that the board grades a round light. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Value said wait; DeWayne Carter in No. 76 says they were not listening. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
A big swing on Chau Smith-Wade at Round 4, Pick 1, well ahead of any board in the building. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
By-the-book stuff, Kitan Oladapo at the 148th pick squarely in line with his ranking. A minor itch, scratched.
They liked Kendall Milton enough to skip the value, taking him in pick 184. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
They took Jaylan Ford at par in the 198th overall pick, which is nothing to complain about. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
A tidy bit of business in the Round 6 slot, where Marcus Rosemy-Jacksaint graded well above the range. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
