McGenius DRAFTING FOR THEDolphins
Draft Selections
Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall
C+

TradesB-
FutureB-
The Dolphins did enough to get by: C+. Some picks age like wine; Jared Wiley at Round 7, Pick 26 will need to, sitting 165 spots clear of his grade. A mixed bag that lands at C+.
The quarterback spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at. The Sainristil value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 3 of 8 of the wish list covered.
If Taliese Fuaga and a couple of the gambles land, hindsight will be kinder than this grade.
Pick Analysis
Pick25
Rnd1
Taliese Fuaga
In Round 1, Pick 25 they get a cornerstone up front. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick57
Rnd2
Jackson Powers-Johnson
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Jackson Powers-Johnson well ahead of where he belonged. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick162
Rnd5
Mike Sainristil
Quietly one of the better values of the day, Mike Sainristil at the 162nd overall pick. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick203
Rnd6
Shemar Turner
No edge and no loss on Shemar Turner in slot 203; it is a wash and a sensible one. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick246
Rnd7
Jared Wiley
They reached a country mile for Jared Wiley at the Round 7 slot, and the board is aghast. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
