You build a draft on nights like this. Johnny Dixon had no business being available in slot 241, and the Dolphins did the only sane thing and turned in the card. It holds up to a second look, which is why it earns the A-.

Every deal seemed to tilt their way, which is not luck. Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Bottom line, with Dallas Turner leading the way, this is a class that should pay off fast and rarely be regretted.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.21 · Pick 21 · Dallas Turner · LB-EDGE · rank 14
In the Round 1 slot they get juice off the edge. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
R3.11 · Pick 75 · Kingsley Suamataia · OT · rank 61
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Kingsley Suamataia at Round 3, Pick 11. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R5.22 · Pick 158 · Mason McCormick · OT · rank 146
Mason McCormick at pick No. 158 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. The roster fit checks out.
R6.9 · Pick 184 · Tykee Smith · S · rank 160
Tykee Smith in the 184th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
R6.23 · Pick 198 · Cornelius Johnson · WR · rank 188
Cornelius Johnson in the 198th overall pick is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R7.21 · Pick 241 · Johnny Dixon · CB · rank 190
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Johnny Dixon in slot 241, plain and simple. It adds depth where they could use a little.
