Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B
ValueC- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
A masterclass at the trade table lands the Dolphins a B.

The Dolphins put a flag in the ground for Jaheim Bell, 49 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B.

The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. A whole weekend of picks and edge rusher is somehow still a want. If one pick saves this weekend, it is Watts.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick35 Rnd2 Jackson Powers-Johnson
They jumped the gun on Jackson Powers-Johnson, taking him earlier than his grade liked. It fills a real need, too.
Pick61 Rnd2 Christian Haynes
A premium they did not need to pay, Christian Haynes a notch or two before his time. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick90 Rnd3 DeWayne Carter
A reach for DeWayne Carter in the Round 3 slot; a little patience would have been rewarded. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick92 Rnd3 Jaheim Bell
Jaheim Bell at the 92nd pick is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick97 Rnd3 Cedric Gray
A real head-scratcher, Cedric Gray in Round 3, Pick 34 is miles ahead of his ranking. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick155 Rnd5 Javon Baker
They reached a country mile for Javon Baker at the 155th overall pick, and the board is aghast. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick170 Rnd5 Jordan Jefferson
They went early on Jordan Jefferson in No. 170, and the value did not follow. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick178 Rnd6 Frank Gore Jr.
Frank Gore Jr. in the 178th overall pick is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick186 Rnd6 Julian Pearl
No edge and no loss on Julian Pearl in pick 186; it is a wash and a sensible one. Not a spot anyone had flagged, which makes it a head-scratcher.
Pick199 Rnd6 Erick All
Erick All in the Round 6 slot is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick207 Rnd6 Taulia Tagovailoa
They left a pile of value on the table to take Taulia Tagovailoa this early at Round 6, Pick 32. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick239 Rnd7 Ryan Watts
Ryan Watts at pick No. 239 is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
