After cleaning house on Thursday morning, the Dolphins are plotting their next move. The Dolphins see their secondary as a unit in need of help and they’re thinking about swinging a trade for a big-name cornerback, Adam Beasley of the Miami Herald (on Twitter) hears. 
Around this time last year, the Dolphins acquired cornerback Byron Maxwell (and Kiko Alonso) via trade from the Eagles. Maxwell, Tony Lippett, Bobby McCain, and Xavien Howard are still in the fold, but Miami still craves a CB upgrade. Maxwell graded out as Pro Football Focus’ No. 11 cornerback in the NFL last year, but no other Dolphins corner placed in the top 65. It’s not immediately clear who the Dolphins might be targeting or how much they’re willing to give up via trade.
For those of you just tuning in, the Dolphins handed out pink slips to defensive end Mario Williams, left tackle Branden Albert, and defensive tackle Earl Mitchell on Thursday. The Dolphins are expected to have roughly $50MM in cap space by the time free agency gets underway.
Depends on the trade bait too….. Phins need stud linebackers first, nuff said
I wonder if they can get Albert back for less money. With his injuries, he just wasn’t worth the money especially with LT being Tusil’s natural position. This means we will be looking for OL depth – probably free agent since this draft is weak on OL talent.
Who though? Pretty sure it would have been leaked already if there was a star corner on the trade block.
Not necessarily. You’ll see lots of names come out in next 2 wks
Not necessarily CBs, but names in general, I mean.
Maybe they go after A.J. Bouye from Houston–they don’t want to tag him after only one year of great production.
After all these years I feel like the Fins are finally in a good place. They are still pretty young and have cap flexibility and a good coach. Tannehill is still young and improving they have a solid RB and WRs. Just need some defensive upgrades.
Tannehill is a good football player but he’s not your answer at QB. I can see Romo doing well there.
Sorry to burst your bobble Turk Murpson, but Tannehill far greater than a lot of QBs in the League right now but until next season you just watch and see what he really is. Can you say all stars Dolphins QB Ryan Tannehill thank you sir
reply fail, noob
They r gonna sign Logan Ryan away from the world champion NE Patriots
