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

When a board-topper like Johnny Dixon slides to pick 241, you do not overthink it, and the Dolphins did not. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B+.

They will need Milton III to outplay his draft slot in a hurry to justify it. The dealing alone would carry a lesser class. They covered a lot of ground and still skipped edge rusher, which is a strange place to end up.

Hjalte Froholdt gives the group a proven body among the projects.

Bottom line, more hits than misses and a roster nudged the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Graham Barton
In slot 27 they get an anchor for the offensive line. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick55 Rnd2 Byron Murphy II
A interior defensive lineman of that caliber at No. 55 is the definition of value, full stop. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick71 Rnd3 Keon Coleman
Keon Coleman in pick 71 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick157 Rnd5 Joe Milton III
They left a pile of value on the table to take Joe Milton III this early at the 157th overall pick. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick183 Rnd6 Dwight McGlothern
Dwight McGlothern at the 183rd pick is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick197 Rnd6 Nathan Thomas
A reach for Nathan Thomas in pick No. 197; a little patience would have been rewarded. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick241 Rnd7 Johnny Dixon
Circle this one: Johnny Dixon at Round 7, Pick 21 is a fall that decides a draft. A want dressed up as a pick, at a spot they had covered.
