Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB+ TradesB+ FutureC
The Dolphins let Harris fall into their laps, and walked away with a B.

The value of the weekend has a name and a slot: Marcus Harris, Round 6, Pick 9, roughly 31 picks past where he belonged. More right than wrong, and a B to match.

That quarterback hole did not close this weekend, and it was the biggest one on the wall. They went 4 of 8 on their needs, which is most of what a draft is for.

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

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Laiatu Latu
In the 21st overall pick they get a problem off the edge at a price that makes it sweeter. It fills the loudest need on the roster.
Pick55 Rnd2 Braden Fiske
A market-rate interior defensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Braden Fiske. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick75 Rnd3 Kiran Amegadjie
A tidy bit of business in No. 75, where Kiran Amegadjie graded well above the range. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick122 Rnd4 Will Shipley
Nice patience on Will Shipley, who had no business lasting to slot 122. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick158 Rnd5 Trevor Keegan
A quiet steal in the Round 5 slot: Trevor Keegan for less than the market said. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick184 Rnd6 Marcus Harris
Marcus Harris at pick 184 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick241 Rnd7 Kalen DeLoach
Kalen DeLoach at Round 7, Pick 21 is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. A minor itch, scratched.
