Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B
ValueB- NeedB TradesA+ FutureB-
The steal of the weekend belongs to the Dolphins and Gordon II: B.

Somebody in the 257th pick was going to get robbed, and it turned out to be the rest of the league. The Dolphins sat still while Ollie Gordon II, the No. 174 name on the board, slid all the way to them, then sprinted to the podium. It nets out to a B, which feels about right.

The phones were where this weekend was really won. Every board in the league had Henderson lower, and that gap is the story. They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest.

A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.

Pick Analysis
Pick17 Rnd1 Armand Membou
In slot 17 they get a long-term starter on the line, though they paid up to get him. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick48 Rnd2 Jaxson Dart
Jaxson Dart in pick No. 48 is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick49 Rnd2 Aireontae Ersery
They paid sticker price for Aireontae Ersery in pick 49, and that is fine. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick98 Rnd3 Dylan Fairchild
Dylan Fairchild in Round 3, Pick 34 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick115 Rnd4 Mason Taylor
Mason Taylor at No. 115 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It fills a real need, too.
Pick135 Rnd4 Danny Stutsman
The board fumbled Danny Stutsman all the way to the 135th pick, and they scooped it up. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick151 Rnd5 Quinshon Judkins
Circle this one: Quinshon Judkins at the 151st overall pick is a fall that decides a draft. The roster fit checks out.
Pick156 Rnd5 Billy Bowman Jr.
You do not let a safety like Billy Bowman Jr. reach the Round 5 slot and blink. They did not. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick226 Rnd7 Xzavier Henderson
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Xzavier Henderson. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick233 Rnd7 Luke Elzinga
Luke Elzinga in the 233rd pick should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. Insurance at a position that did not really ask for it.
Pick257 Rnd7 Ollie Gordon II
They robbed the room for Ollie Gordon II here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
