Nobody had Tahj Washington this high, and it is not close. The Dolphins reached 108 spots to get him at pick No. 243.
For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain. They left with wide receiver solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off. The back end got a real overhaul.
It grades out a shrug today, with plenty of room to move either way.
Pick-by-Pick
In Round 1, Pick 22 they get a potential shutdown corner. More want than need.
Ja'Tavion Sanders in slot 54 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. A need, and now a little less of one.
This one needs a full-page explanation: Josh Proctor in pick No. 159, miles early. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Marcus Harris at the 186th overall pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Value said wait; Aaron Lewis in No. 200 says they were not listening. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
A wild overpay on Tahj Washington in the 243rd pick, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
