Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B
ValueC NeedC+ TradesB FutureA+
A solid, sensible weekend for the Dolphins: B.

The Dolphins torched the value chart for Dametrious Crownover, taking him 76 spots sooner than anyone had him slotted. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.

The McNeil-Warren pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. The imported veterans give this class a floor the draft picks could not on their own.

Small wins on the phones, but wins all the same.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick58 Rnd2 Markel Bell
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Markel Bell. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick62 Rnd2 Dametrious Crownover
They talked themselves into Dametrious Crownover at the 62nd overall pick, and the board did not agree. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick75 Rnd3 Isaiah World
Value said wait; Isaiah World in Round 3, Pick 11 says they were not listening. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick79 Rnd3 Connor Lew
A offensive lineman of that caliber at slot 79 is the definition of value, full stop. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick89 Rnd3 Keionte Scott
They barely believed it either: Keionte Scott still on the board at pick No. 89. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick90 Rnd3 Emmanuel McNeil-Warren
Circle this one: Emmanuel McNeil-Warren at the 90th pick is a fall that decides a draft. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick94 Rnd3 Darrell Jackson Jr.
They took Darrell Jackson Jr. at par in slot 94, which is nothing to complain about. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick109 Rnd4 Mike Washington Jr.
A straight-up fair deal on Mike Washington Jr. at No. 109, value and slot in agreement. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick111 Rnd4 Sam Roush
Steal is underselling it; Sam Roush at the 111th pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick116 Rnd4 Michael Trigg
A tidy bit of business in pick 116, where Michael Trigg graded well above the range. It fills a real need, too.
Pick127 Rnd4 Ted Hurst
Ted Hurst at the 127th overall pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick130 Rnd4 Eli Raridon
They paid sticker price for Eli Raridon in the Round 4 slot, and that is fine. The roster fit checks out.
Pick133 Rnd4 Harold Perkins Jr.
Harold Perkins Jr. at Round 4, Pick 33 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the linebacker. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick151 Rnd5 Jalen Farmer
No drama and no debate, Jalen Farmer went about where he belonged in pick No. 151. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick168 Rnd5 Domani Jackson
Domani Jackson at pick 168 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
Pick170 Rnd5 Marlin Klein
Marlin Klein in slot 170 is fair value, right on his grade. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick210 Rnd6 Jeff Caldwell
A market-rate wide receiver, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Jeff Caldwell. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick227 Rnd7 Charles Demmings
They jumped the gun on Charles Demmings, taking him earlier than his grade liked. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
Pick238 Rnd7 Isaiah Jatta
They paid up for Isaiah Jatta at the 238th pick when waiting would have done the job. It fills a real need, too.
Pick239 Rnd7 Nolan Rucci
Nolan Rucci in Round 7, Pick 23 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick241 Rnd7 Logan Taylor
Logan Taylor at No. 241 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick257 Rnd7 Micah Morris
Micah Morris in the Round 7 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
