Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B-

Grand theft in slot 48: the Dolphins steal Emmanwori and grade out a B-.

When a board-topper like Nick Emmanwori slides to the 48th overall pick, you do not overthink it, and the Dolphins did not. Nothing here to lose sleep over; call it a B-.

They will regret leaving quarterback for another day if the season turns on it. Slater has a lot of ground to make up just to look fairly priced.

Job largely done: wide receiver settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

All told, a solid class that does its job everywhere but quarterback.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Jahdae Barron
In pick 13 they get a ballhawk on the outside. Need was not the driver here.
Pick48 Rnd2 Nick Emmanwori
Nick Emmanwori at the Round 2 slot is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. Not urgent, but hardly pointless.
Pick98 Rnd3 Charles Grant
Charles Grant at Round 3, Pick 34 nudges the ledger their way without any fuss. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick116 Rnd4 Xavier Restrepo
Value with a capital V on Xavier Restrepo in No. 116, a genuine coup. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
Pick135 Rnd4 Jackson Slater
Jackson Slater in the 135th overall pick is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. The roster fit checks out.
Pick150 Rnd5 Logan Brown
Logan Brown in pick No. 150 lands just on the right side of the ledger. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick155 Rnd5 O'Donnell Fortune
They did well to land O'Donnell Fortune in the 155th pick, just ahead of his grade. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
Pick224 Rnd7 Desmond Watson
Desmond Watson in slot 224 is fair value, right on his grade. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick231 Rnd7 Kyle Monangai
Circle this one: Kyle Monangai at the 231st pick is a fall that decides a draft. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick253 Rnd7 Tonka Hemingway
No edge and no loss on Tonka Hemingway in No. 253; it is a wash and a sensible one. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
