Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall D-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesF FutureB-
The phones sank the Dolphins this weekend: D-.

The Dolphins looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Daequan Hardy at No. 241 regardless, 35 picks early. Put together, it is a D-.

Overpaying at the table undid a lot of the good work elsewhere. A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want.

The McCaffrey pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. They left with wide receiver solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

Add it up and it is a weekend the front office will hope everyone forgets, quarterback very much included.

Pick Analysis
Pick23 Rnd1 Graham Barton
In pick No. 23 they get a blindside protector. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick55 Rnd2 Bralen Trice
Bralen Trice at the Round 2 slot jumps the queue by a touch more than is comfortable. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick76 Rnd3 Michael Hall Jr.
No drama and no debate, Michael Hall Jr. went about where he belonged in slot 76. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick112 Rnd4 Cedric Gray
By-the-book stuff, Cedric Gray at the 112th overall pick squarely in line with his ranking. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick142 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
Kitan Oladapo at No. 142 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick167 Rnd5 Luke McCaffrey
They will replay Luke McCaffrey at Round 5, Pick 31 for years; that is how good the value is. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick184 Rnd6 Kendall Milton
They jumped the gun on Kendall Milton, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick198 Rnd6 Drake Nugent
A premium they did not need to pay, Drake Nugent a notch or two before his time. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick232 Rnd7 Michael Barrett
Michael Barrett in the 232nd pick is fair value, right on his grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick241 Rnd7 Daequan Hardy
Daequan Hardy in pick No. 241 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It adds depth where they could use a little.
