Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
The Dolphins let Neal fall and pounced. Final grade: B.

You could see the war room lean forward. Devin Neal at slot 224 is the sort of fall that does not happen, except it just did. It does the job without flash, and the B reflects it.

Every board in the league had Caldwell lower, and that gap is the story. A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want.

Add it up and it is a good, unfussy class.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Will Johnson
In slot 13 they get a lockdown presence outside. Need was not the driver here.
Pick50 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
Taking Nick Emmanwori in Round 2, Pick 18 is close to grand larceny; a safety that good had no business lasting this long. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick98 Rnd3 Dylan Fairchild
Dylan Fairchild at the 98th pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick114 Rnd4 Quinshon Judkins
A top-tier running back at a bargain, Quinshon Judkins in the 114th overall pick, plain and simple. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick133 Rnd4 Kyren Lacy
Kyren Lacy in pick No. 133 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick136 Rnd4 Chris Paul Jr.
Somehow Chris Paul Jr. was still sitting there in the Round 4 slot, and they pounced on premier linebacker value. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick149 Rnd5 Pat Bryant
Pat Bryant at No. 149 is a sensible buy, a touch better than market for the wide receiver. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick154 Rnd5 Dont'e Thornton Jr.
Dont'e Thornton Jr. at pick 154 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick183 Rnd6 Hayden Conner
Hayden Conner at the Round 6 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. The roster fit checks out.
Pick224 Rnd7 Devin Neal
Devin Neal at slot 224 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick231 Rnd7 Jamaree Caldwell
A big swing on Jamaree Caldwell at Round 7, Pick 15, well ahead of any board in the building. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick252 Rnd7 Jamon Dumas-Johnson
They barely believed it either: Jamon Dumas-Johnson still on the board at pick 252. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
