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

The Dolphins treated their own grade as gospel and everyone else's as noise, spending slot 116 on Jackson Slater a full 36 spots early.

If this class has a fault line, it runs straight through wide receiver. That is a safety worth more than the slot they spent on him, plainly.

On the needs board they went 6 of 8, with quarterback the one that mattered most. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Nothing here to lose sleep over, and plenty to feel decent about.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Armand Membou
In the 13th pick they get protection for the quarterback at fair value.
Pick48 Rnd2 Tyleik Williams
They let Tyleik Williams come to them and pounced at the 48th overall pick. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick98 Rnd3 Tyler Shough
Tyler Shough in pick 98 is fair value, right on his grade. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick116 Rnd4 Jackson Slater
Jackson Slater at slot 116 is a steep price for a hunch, hard to square with any board. It fills a real need, too.
Pick135 Rnd4 Kyle McCord
They read the board right and Kyle McCord was the payoff at pick No. 135. A must-fix position, and they treated it like one.
Pick150 Rnd5 RJ Harvey
A running back of that caliber at No. 150 is the definition of value, full stop. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick155 Rnd5 Jonas Sanker
Circle this one: Jonas Sanker at Round 5, Pick 17 is a fall that decides a draft. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick224 Rnd7 Luke Lachey
Luke Lachey at the Round 7 slot is money in the bank, a tight end taken below his worth. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick231 Rnd7 Jabbar Muhammad
They paid up for Jabbar Muhammad at slot 231 when waiting would have done the job. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick253 Rnd7 Shemar James
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Shemar James in No. 253. The roster fit checks out.
