Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall
C+
ValueD
NeedA-
TradesB-
FutureB-
A franchise passer in Manning headlines a C+ weekend for the Dolphins. Some picks age like wine; Darius Taylor at the 35th pick will need to, sitting 559 spots clear of his grade.
The Coleman value carries more weight than any single miss elsewhere. They have staked the next five years on Arch Manning, which is the only story that really matters here. For all the activity, tight end went untouched, which is hard to explain.
It nets out as a middle-of-the-pack haul that neither helps nor hurts much.
Pick Analysis
Pick3
Rnd1
Arch Manning
In pick 3 they get a long-term answer under center. The biggest hole, addressed.
Pick35
Rnd2
Darius Taylor
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Darius Taylor well ahead of where he belonged. A need, and now a little less of one.
Pick67
Rnd3
Cam Coleman
They barely believed it either: Cam Coleman still on the board at Round 3, Pick 3. It also answers one of the loudest questions on the roster.
Pick105
Rnd4
LJ McCray
A real head-scratcher, LJ McCray in the Round 4 slot is miles ahead of his ranking. The biggest hole on the depth chart just got a whole lot smaller.
Pick142
Rnd5
Jehiem Oatis
Value said wait; Jehiem Oatis in the 142nd overall pick says they were not listening. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick167
Rnd5
Sahir West
Circle this one: Sahir West at slot 167 is a fall that decides a draft. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick182
Rnd6
Coen Echols
A wild overpay on Coen Echols in No. 182, the sort that defines a class for the wrong reasons. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick243
Rnd7
Mark Nabou Jr.
Taking Mark Nabou Jr. in the 243rd overall pick is close to grand larceny; an offensive lineman that good had no business lasting this long. It fills a real need, too.
Pick255
Rnd7
Demond Williams Jr.
Demond Williams Jr. in pick No. 255 is the kind of reach that only looks good if he outplays it. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
