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

It is the swing that defines the weekend: Zion Logue in No. 249, a good 41 spots before the room expected him. It does the job without flash, and the B- reflects it.

They covered a lot of ground and still skipped quarterback, which is a strange place to end up. Whatever else happened, they won the night they took Jackson.

In sum, a sturdy weekend with one asterisk, the quarterback spot they never got to.

Pick Analysis
Pick21 Rnd1 Byron Murphy II
In slot 21 they get a run-stuffing presence up front. Exactly the need they had to hit.
Pick55 Rnd2 T.J. Tampa
A tidy little value on T.J. Tampa in pick No. 55, a step better than break-even. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick158 Rnd5 Jaheim Bell
Jaheim Bell at the 158th overall pick is neither steal nor reach, just the going rate. The roster fit checks out.
Pick184 Rnd6 Walter Rouse
Value with a capital V on Walter Rouse in the Round 6 slot, a genuine coup. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick201 Rnd6 Jha'Quan Jackson
Jha'Quan Jackson at No. 201 is daylight robbery; nobody expected him to last. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick241 Rnd7 Matthew Jones
A reach on Matthew Jones in the 241st pick; the board had better options right there. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick249 Rnd7 Zion Logue
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Zion Logue well ahead of where he belonged. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
