Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB TradesA+ FutureB
Nobody dealt better than the Dolphins this weekend: B+.

Some picks age like wine; Brady Cook at the 166th overall pick will need to, sitting 105 spots clear of his grade.

That Lambert-Smith pick is the receipt they will wave around later. The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through tight end.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick31 Rnd1 Nick Emmanwori
Value with a capital V on Nick Emmanwori in No. 31, a genuine coup. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick56 Rnd2 Marcus Mbow
A reasonable price with a little left over, Marcus Mbow in the 56th overall pick. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick58 Rnd2 Donovan Ezeiruaku
They liked Donovan Ezeiruaku enough to skip the value, taking him in pick No. 58. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick62 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
Nothing to complain about; Alfred Collins went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick89 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
Good price on Donovan Jackson in the Round 3 slot, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick98 Rnd3 Maxwell Hairston
Circle this one: Maxwell Hairston at slot 98 is a fall that decides a draft. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick116 Rnd4 Danny Stutsman
They barely believed it either: Danny Stutsman still on the board at the Round 4 slot. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick119 Rnd4 Jah Joyner
A big swing on Jah Joyner at the 119th pick, well ahead of any board in the building. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick135 Rnd4 Darius Alexander
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Darius Alexander at slot 135 is the proof. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick153 Rnd5 Dillon Gabriel
Somehow Dillon Gabriel was still sitting there in Round 5, Pick 15, and they pounced on premier quarterback value. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick155 Rnd5 Jordan James
They robbed the room for Jordan James here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick163 Rnd5 Tyler Batty
Tyler Batty in pick No. 163 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick166 Rnd5 Brady Cook
A wild overpay on Brady Cook in pick 166, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick214 Rnd6 Torricelli Simpkins III
They talked themselves into Torricelli Simpkins III at No. 214, and the board did not agree. The roster fit checks out.
Pick224 Rnd7 Quincy Riley
A top-tier cornerback at a bargain, Quincy Riley in the 224th pick, plain and simple. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick231 Rnd7 Jaylen Reed
Jaylen Reed at No. 231 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick253 Rnd7 KeAndre Lambert-Smith
Steal is underselling it; KeAndre Lambert-Smith at the 253rd overall pick is a heist with the alarm still ringing. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick256 Rnd7 Jaylin Lane
Jaylin Lane at slot 256 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick257 Rnd7 Chimere Dike
Chimere Dike in Round 7, Pick 41 is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
