You build a draft on nights like this. Ryan Flournoy had no business being available in the Round 7 slot, and the Dolphins did the only sane thing and turned in the card. A dependable weekend that grades out a B.
That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.
Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.
Pick-by-Pick
In the 21st overall pick they get a building block for the line, and a steal at that. A clean fit for the roster.
Quietly one of the better values of the day, T'Vondre Sweat at the 56th pick. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
They robbed the room for Beau Brade here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
They barely believed it either: Trevor Keegan still on the board at No. 174. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
You do not let a tight end like Dallin Holker reach the Round 6 slot and blink. They did not. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Fabien Lovett slipping to pick 198 is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Circle this one: Ryan Flournoy at slot 241 is a fall that decides a draft. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
