Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall
D
ValueC+

FutureB+
The phones sank the Dolphins this weekend: D. It is the swing that defines the weekend: Jaylon Hutchings in the 198th overall pick, a good 156 spots before the room expected him.
The trades bled value they could not afford to lose. That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall.
Bottom line, they will need several of these picks to beat their grades just to break even, and quarterback is still a hole.
Pick Analysis
Pick21
Rnd1
Graham Barton
In pick 21 they get an anchor for the offensive line. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick55
Rnd2
Adisa Isaac
No drama and no debate, Adisa Isaac went about where he belonged in pick No. 55. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick65
Rnd3
Payton Wilson
A quiet steal in Round 3, Pick 1: Payton Wilson for less than the market said. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick108
Rnd4
Theo Johnson
The board had cheaper options than Theo Johnson at the Round 4 slot, and it noticed. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick129
Rnd4
Chau Smith-Wade
A market-rate cornerback, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Chau Smith-Wade. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick184
Rnd6
Kendall Milton
Kendall Milton in No. 184 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick198
Rnd6
Jaylon Hutchings
Jaylon Hutchings in No. 198 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
