The Dolphins got the worse of every deal, and it shows in the C-.

The Dolphins lost the trade war and it was not close, handing partners the better end again and again.

A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. Nubin at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster.

The roster is better shaped than it was, with wide receiver chief among the fixes. The Dallin Leavitt deal gives the class an established piece to lean on.

It grades out a shrug today, with plenty of room to move either way.

Pick-by-Pick

R2.4 · Pick 36 · Terrion Arnold · CB · rank 24
Terrion Arnold at the Round 2 slot is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. It adds depth where they could use a little.
R2.23 · Pick 55 · Tyler Nubin · S · rank 39
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Tyler Nubin at Round 2, Pick 23. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
R3.3 · Pick 67 · Christian Haynes · OG · rank 62
A clean, defensible pick in the 67th overall pick with a little surplus value in Christian Haynes. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R3.28 · Pick 91 · Jonah Elliss · DE-EDGE · rank 89
No drama and no debate, Jonah Elliss went about where he belonged in pick 91. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R5.1 · Pick 137 · Johnny Wilson · WR · rank 128
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Johnny Wilson at pick No. 137 is the proof. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R5.21 · Pick 157 · Marist Liufau · LB · rank 148
Marist Liufau at the 157th pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R5.32 · Pick 168 · Walter Rouse · OT · rank 172
They took Walter Rouse at par in No. 168, which is nothing to complain about. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R6.11 · Pick 186 · Jordan Jefferson · DT · rank 186
A straight-up fair deal on Jordan Jefferson at slot 186, value and slot in agreement. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R6.25 · Pick 200 · Elijah Jones · CB · rank 193
Elijah Jones at the Round 6 slot nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
R7.19 · Pick 239 · Tyler Owens · S · rank 228
Tyler Owens is a better player than No. 239 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Pure best-available; the position was not exactly begging.
R7.23 · Pick 243 · Jordan Whittington · WR · rank 247
Jordan Whittington at Round 7, Pick 23 is right where the board had him, plain and simple. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
