Nobody else had Braiden McGregor anywhere near the Round 5 slot. The Dolphins did, by 62 spots, and that gap is the whole story. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.
Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall. They left with wide receiver solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.
The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.
Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.
Pick-by-Pick
In pick No. 22 they get a cornerstone up front. A real need, handled.
A big swing on Cooper Beebe at the 58th pick, well ahead of any board in the building. It fills a real need, too.
They talked themselves into Ben Sinnott at pick 126, and the board did not agree. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Braiden McGregor. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
A straight-up fair deal on Ethan Driskell at No. 200, value and slot in agreement. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Joshua Cephus at the 243rd overall pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
