The Dolphins went off the board in a big way for Joshua Braun, 46 picks early. Conviction is one thing; this is another.

However the rest shakes out, Hurst at that price is a win they earned. The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.

Pick-by-Pick

R2.8 · Pick 40 · Omar Cooper Jr. · WR · rank 34
Omar Cooper Jr. at Round 2, Pick 8 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R2.11 · Pick 43 · Anthony Hill Jr. · LB · rank 38
A tidy little value on Anthony Hill Jr. in No. 43, a step better than break-even. The roster fit checks out.
R3.11 · Pick 75 · Jake Slaughter · C · rank 55
You do not let an offensive lineman like Jake Slaughter reach pick No. 75 and blink. They did not. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R3.26 · Pick 90 · Jacob Rodriguez · LB · rank 72
Jacob Rodriguez at pick 90 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R3.30 · Pick 94 · Elijah Sarratt · WR · rank 77
Elijah Sarratt slid further than he should have, and slot 94 is lovely value for the wide receiver. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R4.18 · Pick 118 · Ted Hurst · WR · rank 86
They barely believed it either: Ted Hurst still on the board at the 118th pick. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R4.25 · Pick 125 · Eli Raridon · TE · rank 135
Eli Raridon in pick No. 125 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R4.28 · Pick 128 · Treydan Stukes · CB · rank 96
The board fumbled Treydan Stukes all the way to Round 4, Pick 28, and they scooped it up. A minor need, but a need all the same.
R4.30 · Pick 130 · Dametrious Crownover · OT · rank 143
Dametrious Crownover at No. 130 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R4.31 · Pick 131 · Isaiah World · OT · rank 145
They went early on Isaiah World in slot 131, and the value did not follow. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R5.11 · Pick 151 · Zxavian Harris · DT · rank 154
By-the-book stuff, Zxavian Harris at the 151st overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R5.36 · Pick 176 · Domani Jackson · CB · rank 174
Domani Jackson in the Round 5 slot is fair value, right on his grade. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
R6.10 · Pick 191 · Jeff Caldwell · WR · rank 186
Fair-plus on Jeff Caldwell, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R6.34 · Pick 215 · Bryce Foster · C · rank 248
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Bryce Foster. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R7.11 · Pick 227 · Logan Taylor · OG · rank 258
A big swing on Logan Taylor at the 227th pick, well ahead of any board in the building. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R7.13 · Pick 229 · Isaiah Jatta · OT · rank 241
They paid a round early for Isaiah Jatta in pick 229, more than the board wanted. A need, and now a little less of one.
R7.22 · Pick 238 · Joshua Braun · OG · rank 284
Joshua Braun at Round 7, Pick 22 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It fills a real need, too.
