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

There was a run on nobody at that position, and the Dolphins started one anyway for Dylan McMahon, 53 picks ahead of schedule.

Getting Baker where they did is the sort of value that quietly makes a class. It is not that Sainristil is a bad player; it is that the Dolphins had louder needs to answer first.

Leaving quarterback unaddressed is the roster risk they will have to answer for in the fall.

All told, a draft that does its job without fuss, and there is real value in that.

Pick Analysis
Pick58 Rnd2 Tyler Guyton
Tyler Guyton in pick No. 58 is a bargain the rest of the room will envy. The roster fit checks out.
Pick62 Rnd2 Cooper Beebe
The board screamed and they did not listen, reaching into the next round for Cooper Beebe. It plugs a real leak on the depth chart.
Pick66 Rnd3 Payton Wilson
Payton Wilson in the 66th pick is fair value, right on his grade. A real hole, addressed with a reasonable pick.
Pick71 Rnd3 Kingsley Suamataia
A slide stopped in the Round 3 slot, with Kingsley Suamataia worth more than the price. It fills a real need, too.
Pick75 Rnd3 Josh Newton
The board had Josh Newton higher than the 75th overall pick, and the cornerback fell to them anyway. It thickens a room that could stand to be thicker.
Pick89 Rnd3 Mike Sainristil
A want over a need in slot 89: Mike Sainristil adds a cornerback while quarterback keeps waiting.
Pick90 Rnd3 Marshawn Kneeland
A swing that ignored the value entirely, Marshawn Kneeland well ahead of where he belonged. Better still, it is exactly the hole they had to fill.
Pick110 Rnd4 Mohamed Kamara
They went early on Mohamed Kamara in No. 110, and the value did not follow. It answers the question that was keeping the coaches up at night.
Pick127 Rnd4 Jaheim Bell
They paid a round early for Jaheim Bell in pick 127, more than the board wanted. One more legitimate question on the roster, answered.
Pick136 Rnd4 Keith Randolph Jr.
Keith Randolph Jr. at slot 136 is the pick scouts circle, and not in a good way. The one spot they could not leave alone, and did not.
Pick159 Rnd5 Ainias Smith
They barely believed it either: Ainias Smith still on the board at the 159th overall pick. Top of the wish list, and they did not leave without it.
Pick170 Rnd5 Cam Hart
They robbed the room for Cam Hart here, a fall nobody at the table saw coming. A want more than a need, though you can never have too many.
Pick200 Rnd6 Jase McClellan
Jase McClellan in pick No. 200 is a bet on their own eyes over everyone else's grade. It patches a soft spot without any drama.
Pick212 Rnd6 Dylan McMahon
They left a pile of value on the table to take Dylan McMahon this early at Round 6, Pick 37. Another box on the needs board, quietly ticked.
Pick214 Rnd6 Josh Proctor
A quiet steal in Round 6, Pick 39: Josh Proctor for less than the market said. Depth more than a fix, but depth they can use.
Pick215 Rnd6 Miyan Williams
Miyan Williams in pick 215 is exactly on the number, no argument either way. It shores up a spot that genuinely needed the help.
Pick243 Rnd7 Javon Baker
Javon Baker at No. 243 is a first-round grade at a bargain-bin price, no notes. This was priority one on the needs board, and now it is handled.
Pick245 Rnd7 Dominic Lovett
Dominic Lovett at the Round 7 slot is the steal of the weekend, a first-round talent at a bargain-bin price. That was the need underlined and circled, and now it is checked off.
Pick251 Rnd7 Darius Muasau
Darius Muasau at slot 251 is the sort of value that quietly wins a weekend. A sensible fit that makes the depth chart a little sturdier.
Pick252 Rnd7 Zion Logue
Value said wait; Zion Logue in the 252nd overall pick says they were not listening. A glaring weakness, addressed head on.
