The Dolphins did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

There is reaching, and then there is Kingsley Eguakun at pick 186. The Dolphins jumped the board by 50 and dared it to prove them wrong.

Tracy Jr. at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster. For all the activity, quarterback went untouched, which is hard to explain. They left with wide receiver solved and the rest of the wish list mostly ticked off.

The trenches got the money picks, top to bottom.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Olumuyiwa Fashanu
In Round 1, Pick 21 they get a building block for the line, outstanding value to boot. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick53 Rnd2 Graham Barton
Graham Barton at the Round 2 slot is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick155 Rnd5 LaDarius Henderson
They paid up for LaDarius Henderson at the 155th pick when waiting would have done the job. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick186 Rnd6 Kingsley Eguakun
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Kingsley Eguakun well ahead of where he belonged. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick199 Rnd6 Roger Rosengarten
Taking Roger Rosengarten in pick No. 199 is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. The roster fit checks out.
Pick239 Rnd7 Tyrone Tracy Jr.
Tyrone Tracy Jr. at slot 239 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
