When a board-topper like Isaiah Williams slides to Round 7, Pick 30, you do not overthink it, and the Dolphins did not. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.
They are betting Mesidor proves the room right and everyone else wrong. They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it.
Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.
Pick-by-Pick
In the 29th overall pick they get an anchor for the offensive line. A clean fit for the roster.
A slide stopped in the 61st pick, with Calen Bullock worth more than the price. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
A straight-up fair deal on Frank Gore Jr. at No. 166, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Akheem Mesidor well ahead of where he belonged. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
You do not let a wide receiver like Isaiah Williams reach the Round 7 slot and blink. They did not. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
