The Dolphins clearly saw something nobody else did in Wesley Bissainthe, taking him 58 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. The bottom line is a respectable B.

That Scott pick is the receipt they will wave around later. The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The trade work was a quiet net positive.

Wide receiver was the priority and it is no longer a question, which is most of the job.

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

Pick-by-Pick

R1.12 · Pick 12 · Monroe Freeling · OT · rank 26
In No. 12 they get an anchor for the offensive line, reach and all. A real need, handled.
R1.30 · Pick 30 · Sonny Styles · LB · rank 21
In the 30th overall pick they get the heartbeat of the defense, and a steal at that. A clean fit for the roster.
R2.17 · Pick 49 · Dillon Thieneman · S · rank 35
Dillon Thieneman at slot 49 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
R3.11 · Pick 75 · Dontay Corleone · DT · rank 67
They let Dontay Corleone come to them and pounced at pick 75. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
R3.23 · Pick 87 · Keionte Scott · CB · rank 60
You do not let a cornerback like Keionte Scott reach pick No. 87 and blink. They did not. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
R3.26 · Pick 90 · Nicholas Singleton · RB · rank 108
Value said wait; Nicholas Singleton in Round 3, Pick 26 says they were not listening. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R3.28 · Pick 92 · Harold Perkins Jr. · LB · rank 132
Harold Perkins Jr. at pick No. 92 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R3.30 · Pick 94 · Deion Burks · WR · rank 85
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Deion Burks at pick 94. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R3.33 · Pick 97 · Mason Reiger · LB-EDGE · rank 147
They reached a country mile for Mason Reiger at the 97th pick, and the board is aghast. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R4.30 · Pick 130 · Parker Brailsford · C · rank 129
Parker Brailsford at No. 130 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It fills a real need, too.
R5.11 · Pick 151 · Charles Demmings · CB · rank 148
Charles Demmings at the Round 5 slot nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. They doubled down on a strength rather than a need.
R6.15 · Pick 196 · Domani Jackson · CB · rank 174
The board fumbled Domani Jackson all the way to Round 6, Pick 15, and they scooped it up. It is more luxury than necessity; they were already set here.
R7.11 · Pick 227 · Wesley Bissainthe · LB · rank 285
Wesley Bissainthe in the 227th overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R7.22 · Pick 238 · TJ Hall · CB · rank 220
They will replay TJ Hall at slot 238 for years; that is how good the value is. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
