Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B
ValueB+ NeedB- TradesA- FutureB-
The Dolphins robbed the room for Starks. Final grade: B.

The best pick of the weekend was also the simplest. The Dolphins watched Malaki Starks slide 23 picks past his grade and did not hesitate.

They punted on edge rusher, and it is the miss that keeps the grade honest. With edge rusher and linebacker unsolved, spending premium capital on cornerback is the choice that costs them.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Will Johnson
In the 13th pick they get a press-man option on the boundary, and a steal at that. More want than need.
Pick49 Rnd2 Malaki Starks
Malaki Starks at the Round 2 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. A minor need, but a need all the same.
Pick98 Rnd3 Charles Grant
They stopped a slide they were happy to see, landing Charles Grant in pick 98. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick116 Rnd4 Jalen Milroe
Jalen Milroe in pick No. 116 is a gift, value that borders on unfair. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick119 Rnd4 Joshua Farmer
Good price on Joshua Farmer in slot 119, a hair ahead of his grade with no real quibbles. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick135 Rnd4 Cobee Bryant
They bypassed pressing needs at edge rusher and linebacker to take Cobee Bryant, a cornerback that was not the priority.
Pick150 Rnd5 Logan Brown
A reasonable price with a little left over, Logan Brown in the 150th overall pick. The roster fit checks out.
Pick155 Rnd5 Mitchell Evans
Mitchell Evans in Round 5, Pick 17 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick224 Rnd7 Cam Jackson
By-the-book stuff, Cam Jackson at the Round 7 slot squarely in line with his ranking. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick231 Rnd7 Kyle Monangai
They robbed the room for Kyle Monangai here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick253 Rnd7 Sam Brown Jr.
Sam Brown Jr. at the 253rd overall pick is a sound buy, the sort that quietly helps a class. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
