Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B-
ValueB- NeedB- TradesC FutureB+
The Dolphins did the meat-and-potatoes work well: B-.

Every other box got a look, but wide receiver did not. The Dolphins will head to camp with the same hole they walked in with.

The Smith-Wade steal is the beam this whole class leans on. If Jackson pans out, nobody remembers the price. If not, this is the pick they hear about. Job largely done: quarterback settled and 4 of 8 of the wish list covered.

In short, they left a little better than they arrived, which is the whole idea.

Pick Analysis
Pick53 Rnd2 Patrick Paul
They did well to land Patrick Paul in the Round 2 slot, just ahead of his grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick64 Rnd2 Javon Bullard
They took Javon Bullard at par in pick No. 64, which is nothing to complain about. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick80 Rnd3 Christian Mahogany
Christian Mahogany in the 80th pick is fair value, right on his grade. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick95 Rnd3 Khyree Jackson
Khyree Jackson at Round 3, Pick 32 is a conviction pick that outran the value. It adds depth where they could use a little.
Pick116 Rnd4 Tyrice Knight
They paid sticker price for Tyrice Knight in pick 116, and that is fine. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick133 Rnd4 Jordan Travis
Jordan Travis in slot 133 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick176 Rnd6 Chau Smith-Wade
Chau Smith-Wade at the 176th overall pick is money in the bank, a cornerback taken below his worth. A luxury on a unit that was already in good shape.
Pick186 Rnd6 Roger Rosengarten
Roger Rosengarten in No. 186 lands just on the right side of the ledger. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick199 Rnd6 Emani Bailey
A market-rate running back, with the board and the slot shaking hands on Emani Bailey. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick210 Rnd6 Jordan Magee
By-the-book stuff, Jordan Magee at the Round 6 slot squarely in line with his ranking. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick239 Rnd7 Darius Muasau
A straight-up fair deal on Darius Muasau at the 239th overall pick, value and slot in agreement. A need, and now a little less of one.
