Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall B-
ValueB NeedB TradesB- FutureB-
More right than wrong for the Dolphins, and a B- to prove it.

Some picks age like wine; Hayden Conner at No. 135 will need to, sitting 72 spots clear of his grade. Solid and sensible more than spectacular: a B-.

That Farmer pick is the receipt they will wave around later. The wide receiver spot stays a question, and it was the one they most needed an answer at.

Good work on the whole, with wide receiver the one box left unchecked.

Pick Analysis
Pick13 Rnd1 Will Campbell
In the 13th overall pick they get an anchor for the offensive line. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick48 Rnd2 Omarion Hampton
Omarion Hampton at No. 48 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick98 Rnd3 Riley Leonard
Riley Leonard at the 98th pick is right where the board had him, plain and simple. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick115 Rnd4 Will Howard
Will Howard at pick 115 is money in the bank, a quarterback taken below his worth. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick135 Rnd4 Hayden Conner
This one needs a full-page explanation: Hayden Conner in Round 4, Pick 34, miles early. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick151 Rnd5 Jeffrey Bassa
Jeffrey Bassa at slot 151 is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. A sensible fit for a spot that needed help.
Pick156 Rnd5 Joshua Farmer
Joshua Farmer in No. 156 should not have been possible, and that is the whole point. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
