Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B-
ValueC+ NeedC+ TradesB FutureB-
Nothing loud, just a tidy B- for the Dolphins.

Call it belief, call it a gut call, but Matthew Jones at the 186th pick is 66 spots clear of consensus, and that is the headline.

If one pick saves this weekend, it is Jones. For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain. Job largely done: offensive lineman settled and 1 of 8 of the wish list covered.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Nate Wiggins
A tidy bit of business in pick 27, where Nate Wiggins graded well above the range. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick55 Rnd2 Patrick Paul
The board had cheaper options than Patrick Paul at the Round 2 slot, and it noticed. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick66 Rnd3 Christian Mahogany
Christian Mahogany at slot 66 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick157 Rnd5 Drake Nugent
A big swing on Drake Nugent at Round 5, Pick 21, well ahead of any board in the building. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick186 Rnd6 Matthew Jones
They reached into another round for Matthew Jones, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick188 Rnd6 LaDarius Henderson
A wild overpay on LaDarius Henderson in No. 188, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick200 Rnd6 Kamal Hadden
Kamal Hadden at No. 200 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. Stacking talent where they were already deep.
Pick239 Rnd7 Elijah Jones
Elijah Jones at the 239th overall pick is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
