Larceny in No. 242 lands the Dolphins a B, Hardy and all.

Somebody in slot 242 was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Dolphins sat still while Daequan Hardy, the No. 217 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium.

The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The cost of the Eguakun reach is exactly the players who went right after him.

The trade work was a quiet net positive.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick26 Rnd1 Graham Barton
In the 26th overall pick they get a cornerstone up front. A real need, handled.
Pick53 Rnd2 Kris Jenkins
Kris Jenkins in the Round 2 slot lands just on the right side of the ledger. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick158 Rnd5 Roger Rosengarten
A premium they did not need to pay, Roger Rosengarten a notch or two before his time. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick186 Rnd6 Michael Barrett
Michael Barrett in pick 186 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick199 Rnd6 Kingsley Eguakun
Kingsley Eguakun at slot 199 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick242 Rnd7 Daequan Hardy
Steal is underselling it; Daequan Hardy at Round 7, Pick 22 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
