Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
Best value of the weekend goes to the Dolphins for Hadden: B-.

Every so often the board makes a mistake, and the Dolphins were there to profit. Kamal Hadden, the No. 169 name on the board, should have been long gone before pick No. 198. The bottom line is a respectable B-.

They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. Robinson has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced. On the needs board they went 2 of 8, with edge rusher the one that mattered most.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Troy Fautanu
In the 21st overall pick they get an anchor for the offensive line at fair value.
Pick55 Rnd2 Austin Booker
A reach on Austin Booker in the 55th pick; the board had better options right there. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick158 Rnd5 Layden Robinson
This one needs a full-page explanation: Layden Robinson in pick No. 158, miles early. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick184 Rnd6 Tanor Bortolini
They took Tanor Bortolini at par in No. 184, which is nothing to complain about. It fills a real need, too.
Pick198 Rnd6 Kamal Hadden
Kamal Hadden at Round 6, Pick 23 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick241 Rnd7 LaDarius Henderson
LaDarius Henderson in the Round 7 slot is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. A need, and now a little less of one.
