Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesB- FutureC+
The Dolphins kept it disciplined and banked a B-.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with Derrick Moore at pick No. 108, a reach of 42 spots that the board flatly disagrees with. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

Landing Robertson that late papers over a lot of smaller sins. The Wheatley pick is fine in a vacuum, less so with tight end and linebacker still on the board.

A whole weekend of picks and tight end is somehow still a want.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Caleb Downs
In pick 7 they get a ballhawk on the back end at fair value. More want than need.
Pick40 Rnd2 Olaivavega Ioane
Olaivavega Ioane at the 40th overall pick is a clear overpay, with better names still on the board. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick71 Rnd3 Germie Bernard
Germie Bernard in No. 71 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick77 Rnd3 Zakee Wheatley
A want over a need in Round 3, Pick 13: Zakee Wheatley adds a safety while tight end and linebacker keeps waiting.
Pick93 Rnd3 Blake Miller
Blake Miller at the 93rd pick is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. It fills a real need, too.
Pick108 Rnd4 Derrick Moore
Value said wait; Derrick Moore in the Round 4 slot says they were not listening. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick136 Rnd4 Demond Claiborne
By-the-book stuff, Demond Claiborne at the 136th pick squarely in line with his ranking. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick147 Rnd5 Zane Durant
This one needs a full-page explanation: Zane Durant in No. 147, miles early. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick221 Rnd7 Sawyer Robertson
Steal is underselling it; Sawyer Robertson at slot 221 is a heist with the alarm still ringing. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
