Miami Dolphins

The Dolphins kept it disciplined and banked a B.

Somewhere a scout is still blinking. The Dolphins spent No. 238 on Haynes King, a name the board had a full 71 spots lower. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

The Ponds pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. The Dolphins indulged a want in Ponds while a need in edge rusher stayed open.

A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.11 · Pick 11 · Carnell Tate · WR · rank 12
In pick No. 11 they get a difference-maker at receiver. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
R1.31 · Pick 31 · Monroe Freeling · OT · rank 26
In No. 31 they get a long-term starter on the line at fair value. A real need, handled.
R2.11 · Pick 43 · Kenyon Sadiq · TE · rank 19
Somehow Kenyon Sadiq was still sitting there in the Round 2 slot, and they pounced on premier tight end value. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
R3.11 · Pick 75 · Dillon Thieneman · S · rank 35
Dillon Thieneman in the 75th pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A minor itch, scratched.
R3.23 · Pick 87 · Keionte Scott · CB · rank 61
Keionte Scott at the 87th overall pick is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
R3.26 · Pick 90 · Jake Slaughter · C · rank 55
Taking Jake Slaughter in slot 90 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
R3.30 · Pick 94 · D'Angelo Ponds · CB · rank 48
They zigged when the board said zag, taking D'Angelo Ponds at cornerback with edge rusher open.
R3.31 · Pick 95 · Domonique Orange · DT · rank 77
A top-tier interior defensive lineman at a bargain, Domonique Orange in the Round 3 slot, plain and simple. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
R4.30 · Pick 130 · Harold Perkins Jr. · LB · rank 129
A straight-up fair deal on Harold Perkins Jr. at the 130th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
R5.11 · Pick 151 · Malik Benson · WR · rank 140
The board had Malik Benson higher than No. 151, and the wide receiver fell to them anyway. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
R6.31 · Pick 212 · J'Mari Taylor · RB · rank 187
J'Mari Taylor at Round 6, Pick 31 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
R7.11 · Pick 227 · Jeff Caldwell · WR · rank 184
Circle this one: Jeff Caldwell at slot 227 is a fall that decides a draft. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
R7.22 · Pick 238 · Haynes King · QB · rank 309
Haynes King at the 238th pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
