Draft Grade — Dolphins
Overall C+
ValueC+ NeedB- TradesB- FutureB-
A mixed bag for the Dolphins, and a C+ to match.

The Dolphins looked at the value chart, folded it up, and took Dominic Zvada at pick No. 225 regardless, 63 picks early. The good and the questionable cancel out to a C+.

For all the activity, edge rusher went untouched, which is hard to explain. On the needs board they went 4 of 8, with quarterback the one that mattered most.

The weekend tilted hard toward the defense.

In the end, a coin-flip class: fine today, with a wide range of outcomes ahead.

Pick Analysis
Pick11 Rnd1 Arvell Reese
In slot 11 they get a green-dot type in the middle at fair value. A clean fit for the roster.
Pick43 Rnd2 Dillon Thieneman
They paid a round early for Dillon Thieneman in pick No. 43, more than the board wanted. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick75 Rnd3 Keith Abney II
A premium they did not need to pay, Keith Abney II a notch or two before his time. A quiet depth add at a thin-ish spot.
Pick78 Rnd3 Austin Siereveld
They paid up for Austin Siereveld at the Round 3 slot when waiting would have done the job. It fills a real need, too.
Pick95 Rnd3 Malachi Fields
A tidy little value on Malachi Fields in pick 95, a step better than break-even. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick111 Rnd4 Drew Allar
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Drew Allar. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick151 Rnd5 Jermaine Mathews Jr.
A big swing on Jermaine Mathews Jr. at pick No. 151, well ahead of any board in the building. Depth on depth, at a spot that was hardly crying out.
Pick225 Rnd7 Dominic Zvada
Dominic Zvada in No. 225 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. They added to a strength when a need was still open elsewhere.
