Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall
B+

FutureB
The Dolphins fleeced the room on the phones and earned a B+. Call it a hunch or call it a gamble, but the Dolphins spent pick No. 252 on Tyrion Ingram-Dawkins, a name most had 144 spots down the list. The bottom line is a respectable B+.
They banked enough surplus on Johnson to cover a lot of smaller sins. The dealing alone would carry a lesser class.
A competent weekend that does not make headlines and does not need to.
Pick Analysis
Pick31
Rnd1
Jalon Walker
In pick No. 31 they get a downhill thumper at linebacker, outstanding value to boot.
Pick48
Rnd2
Nick Emmanwori
Somehow Nick Emmanwori was still sitting there in the 48th pick, and they pounced on premier safety value. Useful body for a position without much behind the starter.
Pick49
Rnd2
Colston Loveland
They barely believed it either: Colston Loveland still on the board at pick 49. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick59
Rnd2
Donovan Jackson
Donovan Jackson in the 59th overall pick is a reach so steep the board needed a second look to believe it. It fills a real need, too.
Pick95
Rnd3
Denzel Burke
A tidy little value on Denzel Burke in the Round 3 slot, a step better than break-even. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick98
Rnd3
Hollin Pierce
Hollin Pierce at No. 98 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick115
Rnd4
Darius Alexander
Darius Alexander in the 115th overall pick is early enough to raise a brow, if not a full objection. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick132
Rnd4
Joshua Farmer
Nice patience on Joshua Farmer, who had no business lasting to slot 132. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick135
Rnd4
Fadil Diggs
Fadil Diggs at Round 4, Pick 34 is the kind of overdraft that needs everything to break right. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick151
Rnd5
Tez Johnson
Tez Johnson at pick No. 151 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick156
Rnd5
Tyler Shough
Good things come to war rooms that wait, and Tyler Shough at the Round 5 slot is the proof. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick195
Rnd6
Bhayshul Tuten
Circle this one: Bhayshul Tuten at No. 195 is a fall that decides a draft. The roster fit checks out.
Pick226
Rnd7
Clay Webb
A real head-scratcher, Clay Webb in pick 226 is miles ahead of his ranking. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick233
Rnd7
Jermari Harris
They read the board right and Jermari Harris was the payoff at the 233rd pick. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick252
Rnd7
Tyrion Ingram-Dawkins
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Tyrion Ingram-Dawkins well ahead of where he belonged. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
