Somebody in pick 214 was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Dolphins sat still while Riley Leonard, the No. 133 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.
If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through wide receiver. They went 5 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.
A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.
Pick-by-Pick
In the 22nd overall pick they get a disruptor off the edge at a price that makes it sweeter. The biggest hole, addressed.
A quiet steal in pick 54: Miller Moss for less than the market said. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Wyatt Milum in No. 118 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Somehow Kyle Monangai was still sitting there in slot 131, and they pounced on premier running back value. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Deontae Lawson at the Round 5 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Brandon Crenshaw-Dickson in the 212th pick. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Riley Leonard in Round 7, Pick 22 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
