Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B
ValueA- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Dolphins and Slaughter: B.

The board owed the Dolphins one, and it paid up: Jake Slaughter, the No. 54 name on the board, sitting there at pick 87 like a gift left on the doorstep. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. The Dolphins indulged a want in Scott while a need in quarterback stayed open.

Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 7 of 8 of the wish list covered.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Jeremiyah Love
In pick 11 they get a bell-cow for the offense, and a steal at that. A real need, handled.
Pick30 Rnd1 Sonny Styles
In No. 30 they get a downhill thumper at linebacker at a price that makes it sweeter.
Pick43 Rnd2 Chris Johnson
A slide stopped in the 43rd overall pick, with Chris Johnson worth more than the price. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick75 Rnd3 Eli Stowers
A tight end of that caliber at pick No. 75 is the definition of value, full stop. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick87 Rnd3 Jake Slaughter
Jake Slaughter in the Round 3 slot is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick90 Rnd3 Jake Golday
Jake Golday in slot 90 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick94 Rnd3 Keionte Scott
Hard to square with the roster. With positions of obvious need still on the board, Keionte Scott adds a cornerback and leaves quarterback untouched.
Pick130 Rnd4 Will Lee III
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending the 130th pick on Will Lee III with quarterback unsolved.
Pick151 Rnd5 Tim Keenan III
Tim Keenan III at Round 5, Pick 11 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick227 Rnd7 Jeff Caldwell
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jeff Caldwell in the Round 7 slot. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick238 Rnd7 Kaden Wetjen
You do not let a wide receiver like Kaden Wetjen reach No. 238 and blink. They did not. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
