Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesA- FutureD
A sensible, unshowy class lands the Dolphins a B-.

The John Mateer pick is the one that will follow the Dolphins into the fall. They took him 26 spots ahead of his grade, and the board is not shy about saying so. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

The edge rusher spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The Orange pick alone nudges the whole weekend up a notch. The trade work was a quiet net positive.

They are betting the present roster is worth a lighter draft next spring.

A workmanlike haul that should hold up just fine.

Pick Analysis
Pick4 Rnd1 Caleb Downs
In the 4th overall pick they get an enforcer at safety. More want than need.
Pick44 Rnd2 John Mateer
They reached into another round for John Mateer, and the board is nowhere close to agreeing. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick75 Rnd3 Xavier Chaplin
A big swing on Xavier Chaplin at pick No. 75, well ahead of any board in the building. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick86 Rnd3 Domonique Orange
Domonique Orange is a better player than pick 86 suggests; smart patience, rewarded. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick151 Rnd5 Nic Anderson
They read the board right and Nic Anderson was the payoff at Round 5, Pick 12. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick226 Rnd7 Jamal Haynes
A straight-up fair deal on Jamal Haynes at the Round 7 slot, value and slot in agreement. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
