When a board-topper like Jamon Dumas-Johnson slides to the 252nd overall pick, you do not overthink it, and the Dolphins did not. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.
The quarterback hole is the one line item this class does not answer. The Barrow Jr. pick is the one the value grade keeps tripping over.
The future picks help the war chest more than the win-now roster. A small leak at the table, if not a fatal one.
Good work on the whole, with quarterback the one box left unchecked.
Pick-by-Pick
In the 22nd overall pick they get a plug-and-play piece up front, reach and all.
A straight-up fair deal on Tyler Booker at Round 2, Pick 4, value and slot in agreement. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
They will replay Malachi Moore at pick No. 98 for years; that is how good the value is. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Mason Taylor at slot 114 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Cam Skattebo in the 149th pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
A conviction pick on Simeon Barrow Jr. at No. 154 that the board grades a round light. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Somehow Jack Kiser was still sitting there in the Round 7 slot, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Circle this one: Seth McLaughlin at pick 231 is a fall that decides a draft. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
They barely believed it either: Jamon Dumas-Johnson still on the board at pick 252. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
