Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesD FutureA
The Dolphins did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

The Dolphins clearly saw something nobody else did in Joe Fagnano, taking him 69 picks ahead of his grade. The board is not convinced. They moved the roster forward and banked a B- for it.

The Slaughter pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. They will regret leaving edge rusher for another day if the season turns on it.

They were the ones paying the moving tax this weekend. Job largely done: quarterback settled and 6 of 8 of the wish list covered.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Sonny Styles
A clean, defensible pick in Round 1, Pick 26 with a little surplus value in Sonny Styles. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick30 Rnd1 Denzel Boston
In No. 30 they get a difference-maker at receiver. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick43 Rnd2 D'Angelo Ponds
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on D'Angelo Ponds. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick75 Rnd3 Eli Stowers
A top-tier tight end at a bargain, Eli Stowers in the 75th pick, plain and simple. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick87 Rnd3 Michael Taaffe
The board fumbled Michael Taaffe all the way to pick No. 87, and they scooped it up. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick90 Rnd3 Jake Slaughter
Taking Jake Slaughter in the Round 3 slot is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick91 Rnd3 Brian Parker II
They paid up for Brian Parker II at pick No. 91 when waiting would have done the job. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick94 Rnd3 Kyle Louis
Kyle Louis slipping to slot 94 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick130 Rnd4 Chris McClellan
Chris McClellan in the Round 4 slot is exactly on the number, no argument either way. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick151 Rnd5 Zane Durant
Zane Durant at pick 151 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick227 Rnd7 Aiden Fisher
Aiden Fisher at No. 227 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. It fills a real need, too.
Pick238 Rnd7 Joe Fagnano
They reached a country mile for Joe Fagnano at Round 7, Pick 22, and the board is aghast. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
