Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB TradesB- FutureC+
A respectable, level-headed haul for the Dolphins: B-.

The Derrick Moore pick is the one that will follow the Dolphins into the fall. They took him 53 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so. A dependable weekend that grades out a B-.

On value alone, Moss makes the weekend a net positive. With interior defensive lineman, tight end and other spots unsolved, spending premium capital on safety is the choice that costs them. A whole weekend of picks and interior defensive lineman is somehow still a want.

Good work on the whole, with interior defensive lineman the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Kadyn Proctor
In the 11th overall pick they get an anchor for the offensive line, though they paid up to get him. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick45 Rnd2 Germie Bernard
They went early on Germie Bernard in No. 45, and the value did not follow. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick76 Rnd3 Zakee Wheatley
Good price on Zakee Wheatley in pick 76, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. Useful depth more than a marquee fix.
Pick89 Rnd3 Akheem Mesidor
Akheem Mesidor in slot 89 is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick90 Rnd3 Derrick Moore
They talked themselves into Derrick Moore at the Round 3 slot, and the board did not agree. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick111 Rnd4 Earl Little Jr.
The eyebrow-raiser of the weekend. They went safety with Earl Little Jr. while clear needs at interior defensive lineman, tight end and other spots sat open.
Pick137 Rnd4 Demond Claiborne
Nothing to complain about; Demond Claiborne went a shade earlier than his grade, which is fine. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick152 Rnd5 Iapani Laloulu
Iapani Laloulu at pick 152 is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick227 Rnd7 Miller Moss
Miller Moss in the 227th overall pick is a gift, value that borders on unfair. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
