The Dolphins robbed the room for Keegan. Final grade: B.

When a board-topper like Trevor Keegan slides to No. 184, you do not overthink it, and the Dolphins did not. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

McClellan has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.21 · Pick 21 · JC Latham · OT · rank 15
They did well to land JC Latham in the Round 1 slot, just ahead of his grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R2.24 · Pick 56 · Jermaine Burton · WR · rank 56
By-the-book stuff, Jermaine Burton at Round 2, Pick 24 squarely in line with his ranking. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R5.22 · Pick 158 · Jase McClellan · RB · rank 197
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jase McClellan well ahead of where he belonged. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
R6.9 · Pick 184 · Trevor Keegan · OG · rank 144
A offensive lineman of that caliber at pick 184 is the definition of value, full stop. A need, and now a little less of one.
R6.23 · Pick 198 · Braiden McGregor · DE-EDGE · rank 174
Circle this one: Braiden McGregor at the 198th overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
R7.13 · Pick 233 · Trente Jones · OT · rank 195
You do not let an offensive lineman like Trente Jones reach No. 233 and blink. They did not. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R7.21 · Pick 241 · Michael Barrett · LB · rank 236
Michael Barrett at pick No. 241 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
