Kylecane DRAFTING FOR THEDolphins

Draft Grade — Dolphins

FutureB-
A solid, sensible weekend for the Dolphins: B-. Somehow the biggest item on the list survived the weekend. The Dolphins never addressed wide receiver, and it is the kind of gap that lingers. Good, not great, and the B- says as much.
Reaching for Zuhn III left real value on the table behind him. That Mateer pick is the receipt they will wave around later.
Good work on the whole, with wide receiver the one box left unchecked.
Pick Analysis
Pick11
Rnd1
Arvell Reese
In pick No. 11 they get a coverage-and-run second-level piece at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick43
Rnd2
Connor Lew
Connor Lew in Round 2, Pick 11 is fair value, right on his grade. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick75
Rnd3
John Mateer
A slide stopped in No. 75, with John Mateer worth more than the price. They walked in needing this and walked out with it.
Pick78
Rnd3
Colton Hood
The board had Colton Hood higher than the 78th overall pick, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick95
Rnd3
Keon Sabb
They let Keon Sabb come to them and pounced at pick 95. A minor itch, scratched.
Pick111
Rnd4
Jack Endries
Jack Endries at the Round 4 slot is right where the board had him, plain and simple. It fills a real need, too.
Pick151
Rnd5
Kage Casey
They paid a round early for Kage Casey in the 151st pick, more than the board wanted. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick225
Rnd7
Trey Zuhn III
Trey Zuhn III at slot 225 is a conviction pick that outran the value. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
