Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesB- FutureC+
The Dolphins won the night they stopped Robertson from sliding. Grade: B-.

The Dolphins did not reach, did not trade up, did not blink. They just waited, and Sawyer Robertson fell into the 221st pick.

With edge rusher and interior defensive lineman unsolved, spending premium capital on safety is the choice that costs them. Every board in the league had Trigg lower, and that gap is the story.

They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. Quarterback is handled and the depth chart looks a good deal healthier for it.

Good work on the whole, with edge rusher the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick7 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In No. 7 they get a downhill thumper at linebacker at fair value. A real need, handled.
Pick40 Rnd2 Olaivavega Ioane
Olaivavega Ioane in pick No. 40 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick71 Rnd3 Germie Bernard
Germie Bernard in pick 71 is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick77 Rnd3 Michael Taaffe
They read the board right and Michael Taaffe was the payoff at the 77th overall pick. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick93 Rnd3 Zakee Wheatley
The needs board was loud and they turned it down, spending the Round 3 slot on Zakee Wheatley with edge rusher and interior defensive lineman unsolved.
Pick108 Rnd4 Michael Trigg
They reached a country mile for Michael Trigg at slot 108, and the board is aghast. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick136 Rnd4 Demond Claiborne
No drama and no debate, Demond Claiborne went about where he belonged in the 136th pick. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick147 Rnd5 Max Iheanachor
A reach for Max Iheanachor in Round 5, Pick 7; a little patience would have been rewarded. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick221 Rnd7 Sawyer Robertson
You do not let a quarterback like Sawyer Robertson reach No. 221 and blink. They did not. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
