Miami Dolphins

A solid, sensible weekend for the Dolphins: B.

Future B-

The Dolphins bet big and early on Isaiah Davis, 33 picks ahead of the board. Bold does not always mean right. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

They will regret leaving tight end for another day if the season turns on it. The trade work was a quiet net positive.

A tidy weekend of work that should hold up just fine.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.31 · Pick 31 · Brian Thomas Jr. · WR · rank 27
In the 31st pick they get a matchup problem out wide. The biggest hole, addressed.
R2.27 · Pick 59 · Kingsley Suamataia · OT · rank 61
By-the-book stuff, Kingsley Suamataia at pick 59 squarely in line with his ranking. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R3.27 · Pick 90 · Jonah Elliss · DE-EDGE · rank 88
A straight-up fair deal on Jonah Elliss at Round 3, Pick 27, value and slot in agreement. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R3.31 · Pick 94 · Matt Goncalves · OT · rank 115
A big swing on Matt Goncalves at slot 94, well ahead of any board in the building. A need, and now a little less of one.
R4.23 · Pick 123 · Isaiah Davis · RB · rank 156
They reached a country mile for Isaiah Davis at the 123rd overall pick, and the board is aghast. It fills a real need, too.
R4.27 · Pick 127 · McKinnley Jackson · DL · rank 124
McKinnley Jackson at No. 127 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
R4.33 · Pick 133 · Luke McCaffrey · WR · rank 149
The board had cheaper options than Luke McCaffrey at pick No. 133, and it noticed. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R5.2 · Pick 138 · Jalyx Hunt · DE-EDGE · rank 151
A conviction pick on Jalyx Hunt at pick 138 that the board grades a round light. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R5.22 · Pick 158 · Walter Rouse · OT · rank 163
No drama and no debate, Walter Rouse went about where he belonged in Round 5, Pick 22. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R6.9 · Pick 184 · Joe Milton III · QB · rank 200
Joe Milton III at the 184th pick is a conviction pick that outran the value. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R6.23 · Pick 198 · Jaden Crumedy · DT · rank 224
Jaden Crumedy in No. 198 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R7.21 · Pick 241 · KT Leveston · OT · rank 242
KT Leveston in the 241st overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
