Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall

The steal of the weekend belongs to the Dolphins and Stowers: D. The rest of the league had time to spare on Caden Curry; the Dolphins did not wait, grabbing him 37 spots ahead at pick 87. Put together, it is a D.
Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. They punted on linebacker, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.
The Stowers pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged.
Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and linebacker is still a hole.
Pick Analysis
Pick18
Rnd1
Jermod McCoy
In No. 18 they get a potential shutdown corner. Need was not the driver here.
Pick30
Rnd1
Christen Miller
Christen Miller in the 30th overall pick is fair value, right on his grade. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick43
Rnd2
Dillon Thieneman
Dillon Thieneman in the Round 2 slot is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick56
Rnd2
Blake Miller
Blake Miller at Round 2, Pick 24 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick75
Rnd3
Emmett Johnson
They reached a country mile for Emmett Johnson at Round 3, Pick 11, and the board is aghast. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick87
Rnd3
Caden Curry
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Caden Curry well ahead of where he belonged. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick90
Rnd3
Eli Stowers
They robbed the room for Eli Stowers here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick124
Rnd4
Bryce Lance
Bryce Lance in pick No. 124 lands just on the right side of the ledger. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick130
Rnd4
Parker Brailsford
A tidy little value on Parker Brailsford in the 130th pick, a step better than break-even. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick151
Rnd5
Tim Keenan III
Tim Keenan III at the 151st overall pick nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick154
Rnd5
Taylen Green
A real head-scratcher, Taylen Green in the Round 5 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick203
Rnd6
J'Mari Taylor
Steal is underselling it; J'Mari Taylor at slot 203 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick227
Rnd7
Chase Roberts
A top-tier wide receiver at a bargain, Chase Roberts in the 227th overall pick, plain and simple. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick238
Rnd7
TJ Hall
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing TJ Hall in Round 7, Pick 22. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick245
Rnd7
Zavion Thomas
A wide receiver of that caliber at pick 245 is the definition of value, full stop. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
