Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B+
ValueB NeedB- TradesA+ FutureB+
The Dolphins fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B+.

Some picks age like wine; Trevor Keegan at Round 6, Pick 11 will need to, sitting 65 spots clear of his grade.

They banked enough surplus on Laumea to cover a lot of smaller sins. The phones were where this weekend was really won.

A whole weekend of picks and quarterback is somehow still a want. The Dolphins clearly valued win-now help, adding bodies who have done it before.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick48 Rnd2 Troy Fautanu
Troy Fautanu in pick 48 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick62 Rnd2 Patrick Paul
Value with a capital V on Patrick Paul in pick No. 62, a genuine coup. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick79 Rnd3 Xavier Worthy
Xavier Worthy in the 79th overall pick is the kind of fall that makes a whole class. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick104 Rnd4 Ben Sinnott
Ben Sinnott in the Round 4 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick155 Rnd5 LaDarius Henderson
LaDarius Henderson at slot 155 is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. The roster fit checks out.
Pick164 Rnd5 Sataoa Laumea
Sataoa Laumea at the 164th pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick182 Rnd6 Aki Ogunbiyi
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Aki Ogunbiyi. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick186 Rnd6 Trevor Keegan
Trevor Keegan at the Round 6 slot is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick199 Rnd6 Michael Barrett
Nice patience on Michael Barrett, who had no business lasting to No. 199. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick229 Rnd7 JD Bertrand
JD Bertrand at Round 7, Pick 9 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick239 Rnd7 Josh Wallace
Josh Wallace is a better player than slot 239 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick248 Rnd7 Maurice Smith
The board had cheaper options than Maurice Smith at the 248th pick, and it noticed. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick250 Rnd7 Miyan Williams
They robbed the room for Miyan Williams here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It fills a real need, too.
