FutureB-
The Dolphins turned the phones into found money: B+. The Dolphins put a flag in the ground for Joe Milton III, 58 picks before anyone else would have, and the value took the hit. A dependable weekend that grades out a B+.
The trade ledger is the best part of the whole weekend. Polk at that cost is the sort of edge that compounds over a roster.
They will regret leaving interior defensive lineman for another day if the season turns on it.
In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the interior defensive lineman spot they never got to.
Pick Analysis
Pick56
Rnd2
Payton Wilson
Payton Wilson slipping to the 56th pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick86
Rnd3
Ja'Lynn Polk
You do not let a wide receiver like Ja'Lynn Polk reach the 86th overall pick and blink. They did not. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick87
Rnd3
Patrick Paul
By-the-book stuff, Patrick Paul at pick 87 squarely in line with his ranking. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick101
Rnd4
DJ James
DJ James slid further than he should have, and slot 101 is lovely value for the cornerback. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick127
Rnd4
Gabriel Murphy
Gabriel Murphy at the Round 4 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick141
Rnd5
Isaac Guerendo
A tidy little value on Isaac Guerendo in Round 5, Pick 5, a step better than break-even. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick158
Rnd5
Joe Milton III
Joe Milton III at slot 158 is an overdraft of the loud, memorable kind. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick184
Rnd6
Jaheim Bell
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Jaheim Bell in the 184th pick. The roster fit checks out.
Pick189
Rnd6
Javion Cohen
The board had cheaper options than Javion Cohen at pick 189, and it noticed. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick198
Rnd6
Sione Vaki
Sione Vaki is a better player than pick No. 198 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick240
Rnd7
Darius Muasau
They barely believed it either: Darius Muasau still on the board at Round 7, Pick 20. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick241
Rnd7
Jaden Shirden
Jaden Shirden in the Round 7 slot is fine work, a shade of surplus and no downside. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
