Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall A
ValueA NeedB+ TradesA+ FutureA+
The Dolphins left with their quarterback, and a A to match.

You build a draft on nights like this. Earl Little Jr. had no business being available in the 247th pick, and the Dolphins did the only sane thing and turned in the card. Just about everything broke right, and the A follows.

So much rides on Drew Mestemaker that the rest of the class almost grades on a curve behind him. The dealing alone would carry a lesser class.

Few war rooms will sleep better than this one tonight.

Pick Analysis
Pick27 Rnd1 Drew Mestemaker
In the Round 1 slot they get their quarterback of the future, outstanding value to boot. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick44 Rnd2 Cam Coleman
Cam Coleman at pick 44 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick60 Rnd2 David Stone
David Stone at the 60th overall pick is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick65 Rnd3 Will Heldt
Will Heldt slid further than he should have, and the 65th pick is lovely value for the edge rusher. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick91 Rnd3 Jamari Johnson
Somehow Jamari Johnson was still sitting there in pick No. 91, and they pounced on premier tight end value. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick105 Rnd4 Luke Montgomery
Luke Montgomery at the Round 4 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick112 Rnd4 Raleek Brown
A slide stopped in No. 112, with Raleek Brown worth more than the price. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick139 Rnd5 Myles Graham
A tidy bit of business in slot 139, where Myles Graham graded well above the range. The roster fit checks out.
Pick146 Rnd5 Ian Moore
A straight-up fair deal on Ian Moore at pick 146, value and slot in agreement. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick154 Rnd5 Anthony Evans III
They robbed the room for Anthony Evans III here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick181 Rnd6 Jayden Jackson
They will replay Jayden Jackson at the 181st pick for years; that is how good the value is. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick247 Rnd7 Earl Little Jr.
Earl Little Jr. at slot 247 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick255 Rnd7 Sheridan Wilson
A market-rate offensive lineman, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Sheridan Wilson. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
