Boards are made to be trusted, and the Dolphins shredded theirs for Caden Curry. He came off 41 spots early, and the room will hear about it.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. With quarterback, interior defensive lineman and other spots unsolved, spending premium capital on cornerback is the choice that costs them.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick-by-Pick

R1.11 · Pick 11 · Mansoor Delane · CB · rank 8
In pick No. 11 they get a potential shutdown corner at fair value.
R1.30 · Pick 30 · Omar Cooper Jr. · WR · rank 34
In the 30th overall pick they get a home-run threat at receiver. The biggest hole, addressed.
R2.11 · Pick 43 · Derrick Moore · DE-EDGE · rank 62
This one needs a full-page explanation: Derrick Moore in the 43rd pick, miles early. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
R3.11 · Pick 75 · Jacob Rodriguez · LB · rank 72
A reasonable price with a little left over, Jacob Rodriguez in Round 3, Pick 11. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
R3.23 · Pick 87 · Treydan Stukes · CB · rank 96
A surprising call. With quarterback, interior defensive lineman and other spots still to address, they spent slot 87 on Treydan Stukes, a cornerback they were not short of.
R3.26 · Pick 90 · Caden Curry · DE-EDGE · rank 131
Caden Curry in pick 90 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
R3.30 · Pick 94 · Bryce Lance · WR · rank 90
Good price on Bryce Lance in the 94th pick, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
R4.30 · Pick 130 · Beau Stephens · OG · rank 159
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Beau Stephens. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
R5.11 · Pick 151 · Kaleb Elarms-Orr · LB · rank 178
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Kaleb Elarms-Orr well ahead of where he belonged. A need, and now a little less of one.
R5.14 · Pick 154 · Louis Moore · S · rank 166
Louis Moore in pick 154 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It adds depth where they could use a little.
R5.30 · Pick 170 · Keagen Trost · OT · rank 182
They paid a round early for Keagen Trost in No. 170, more than the board wanted. It fills a real need, too.
R6.28 · Pick 209 · Jadon Canady · CB · rank 214
Jadon Canady at the Round 6 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
