The Dolphins treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending Round 4, Pick 22 on Davison Igbinosun a full 36 spots early.
For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom. Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.
Pick-by-Pick
In pick No. 22 they get a disruptive interior force, reach and all. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
A straight-up fair deal on Barion Brown at No. 54, value and slot in agreement. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
This one needs a full-page explanation: Davison Igbinosun in slot 118, miles early. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
They reached into another round for TJ Ferguson, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Tyler Baron well ahead of where he belonged. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
A reach for Oronde Gadsden II in the 212th overall pick; a little patience would have been rewarded. It fills a real need, too.
A clean, defensible pick in slot 214 with a little surplus value in Jalil Farooq. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
