Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB- TradesA FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Dolphins, and a B to prove it.

When the story of this class is written, it opens with CJ West at the 150th pick, a reach of 63 spots that the board flatly disagrees with. Call it a sensible B, earned the boring way.

The Ransom pick is the one they will point to when this weekend is judged. They punted on wide receiver, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. With wide receiver, edge rusher and other spots unsolved, spending premium capital on safety is the choice that costs them.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick30 Rnd1 Jalon Walker
In slot 30 they get a green-dot type in the middle. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick39 Rnd2 Azareye'h Thomas
Azareye'h Thomas at the 39th overall pick is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick56 Rnd2 Alfred Collins
They took Alfred Collins at par in the Round 2 slot, which is nothing to complain about. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick62 Rnd2 Xavier Watts
Xavier Watts slipping to the 62nd pick is the kind of luck good rooms make for themselves. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick76 Rnd3 Donovan Jackson
A straight-up fair deal on Donovan Jackson at pick 76, value and slot in agreement. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick109 Rnd4 Ozzy Trapilo
Circle this one: Ozzy Trapilo at No. 109 is a fall that decides a draft. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick116 Rnd4 Kurtis Rourke
A real head-scratcher, Kurtis Rourke in Round 4, Pick 14 is miles ahead of his ranking. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick132 Rnd4 Mitchell Evans
Mitchell Evans in pick No. 132 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick135 Rnd4 Lathan Ransom
They zigged when the board said zag, taking Lathan Ransom at safety with wide receiver, edge rusher and other spots open.
Pick150 Rnd5 CJ West
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for CJ West. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick198 Rnd6 Miles Frazier
They reached a country mile for Miles Frazier at the 198th pick, and the board is aghast. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
