There is conviction, and then there is this. The Dolphins took Harold Perkins Jr. a full 42 picks ahead of where the board had him, an overdraft steep enough that it colors the whole weekend.

The Scott value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.18 · Pick 18 · Sonny Styles · LB · rank 21
In No. 18 they get a sideline-to-sideline linebacker. A real need, handled.
R1.30 · Pick 30 · Olaivavega Ioane · OG · rank 22
In the Round 1 slot they get a cornerstone up front at a price that makes it sweeter. A clean fit for the roster.
R2.11 · Pick 43 · Dillon Thieneman · S · rank 35
They let Dillon Thieneman come to them and pounced at the 43rd overall pick. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
R3.11 · Pick 75 · Dontay Corleone · DT · rank 67
Value with a capital V on Dontay Corleone in the 75th pick, a genuine coup. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
R3.23 · Pick 87 · Domonique Orange · DT · rank 76
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Domonique Orange at slot 87. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R3.26 · Pick 90 · Harold Perkins Jr. · LB · rank 132
Harold Perkins Jr. at pick 90 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. The roster fit checks out.
R3.30 · Pick 94 · Keionte Scott · CB · rank 60
A cornerback of that caliber at the 94th overall pick is the definition of value, full stop. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
R4.30 · Pick 130 · CJ Daniels · WR · rank 142
They paid up for CJ Daniels at the Round 4 slot when waiting would have done the job. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
R5.11 · Pick 151 · Drew Allar · QB · rank 156
A straight-up fair deal on Drew Allar at the 151st pick, value and slot in agreement. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R7.11 · Pick 227 · Logan Taylor · OG · rank 261
This one needs a full-page explanation: Logan Taylor in No. 227, miles early. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
R7.22 · Pick 238 · Nolan Rucci · OT · rank 253
Nolan Rucci in pick 238 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
