Grading the Dolphins' Draft
Miami Dolphins first-round pick Kenneth Grant on Friday, April 25, 2025, in Miami Gardens. Grade: C
Best Pick: DT Kenneth Grant, No. 13 Overall
What We Liked: Effort was made to replace the big-time players who have left Miami for greener pastures. Kenneth Grant is clearly meant to be the next force up the middle similar to how Christian Wilkins operated for the Fins, and Dante Trader Jr. is kind of like if you got Jevon Holland from the 99-cent store: lots of strong play with a much lower paycheck attached. Jonah Savaiinaea feels like one more step in the right direction to fixing an offensive line that has led to Tua Tagovailoa concussions. The needs are being addressed.
Not Sure About: Jordan Phillips was a prospect that got first-round hype early in the cycle, but that tapered off when everyone realized that rumors of his athleticism were greatly exaggerated. Even the fifth round feels out of the range I would want someone of his production caliber. Jason Marshall is a similar former high-upside project player who just never did much of anything. Miami needs some players who can actually make an impact -- outside of their offense, they lack star power.
