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

This is the pick they will still be bragging about in July: M.J. Devonshire, the No. 190 name on the board, stolen at slot 241. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

Reaching for Bills left real value on the table behind him. They won the margins on every swap, and it adds up fast.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through quarterback. Wide receiver is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

In sum, a sensible class that nudges the roster the right way.

Pick Analysis
Pick28 Rnd1 Jackson Powers-Johnson
In pick No. 28 they get a building block for the line at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick57 Rnd2 Braden Fiske
Braden Fiske in No. 57 is fair value, right on his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick60 Rnd2 Ricky Pearsall
Ricky Pearsall in Round 2, Pick 28 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick125 Rnd4 Zak Zinter
Zak Zinter in the 125th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick158 Rnd5 Kitan Oladapo
Fair-plus on Kitan Oladapo, a quiet win that adds up over a draft. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick184 Rnd6 Drake Nugent
They reached into another round for Drake Nugent, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick198 Rnd6 Keaton Bills
They reached a country mile for Keaton Bills at the 198th pick, and the board is aghast. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick220 Rnd6 Curtis Jacobs
A top-tier linebacker at a bargain, Curtis Jacobs in pick 220, plain and simple. The roster fit checks out.
Pick241 Rnd7 M.J. Devonshire
You do not let a cornerback like M.J. Devonshire reach the 241st overall pick and blink. They did not. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
