Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B-
ValueB+ NeedB TradesC+ FutureB-
Larceny in the Round 7 slot lands the Dolphins a B-, Bassa and all.

The Dolphins spent the weekend waiting on one name, and it fell: Jeffrey Bassa, the No. 117 name on the board, in pick No. 224. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

The Jennings reach is the anchor dragging on the value grade. They will regret leaving wide receiver for another day if the season turns on it.

They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for. The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

Not a headline-grabber, but a perfectly good weekend's work.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Walter Nolen
In Round 1, Pick 13 they get a wrecking ball inside. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick59 Rnd2 Tyler Booker
Tyler Booker at the 59th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick98 Rnd3 Luke Kandra
No edge and no loss on Luke Kandra in pick 98; it is a wash and a sensible one. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick114 Rnd4 Sebastian Castro
Sebastian Castro at the Round 4 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick127 Rnd4 Jake Majors
They robbed the room for Jake Majors here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick133 Rnd4 Barrett Carter
You do not let a linebacker like Barrett Carter reach the 133rd pick and blink. They did not. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick149 Rnd5 Lathan Ransom
They barely believed it either: Lathan Ransom still on the board at slot 149. Nice player, but the depth chart did not need him here.
Pick154 Rnd5 Kevin Jennings
Kevin Jennings at No. 154 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick224 Rnd7 Jeffrey Bassa
The board fumbled Jeffrey Bassa all the way to the Round 7 slot, and they scooped it up. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
