Dolphins Draft QB Quinn Ewers At No. 231

April 26th, 2025 at 5:10pm CST by Adam La Rose

The seventh round continues to include quarterbacks coming off the board. Texas product Quinn Ewers has been selected by the Dolphins at No. 231 overall.

Ewers was among the passers facing the high expectations entering the 2024 campaign. The Longhorns succeeded as a team, reaching the semifinals of the College Football Playoff. Individually, though, Ewers struggled to remain healthy and did not produce as hoped. That hindered his draft stock but the fact he remained on the board this late into Saturday still comes as something of a surprise.

Ewers shows a lot of traits that have become popular in NFL quarterbacks of late, boasting a quick release and the ability to throw out of multiple arm slots. He has excellent ball placement on short and intermediate throws and uses his eyes well to throw defenders. He also displayed an interesting intangible by delivering some of his most impressive performances in raucous road environments.

A lack of mobility likely hurt Ewers’ draft stock. He’s not much of a threat to run and, when rushed out of his spot, can struggle to see the field when scrambling. Ewers also struggled to protect the ball at times, throwing 12 interceptions and fumbling the ball 10 times in 2024; in three years as a starter for the Longhorns, he threw 24 picks and had 20 fumbles.

The Dolphins were certainly in need of a QB3. They currently roster only starter Tua Tagovailoa and backup Zach Wilson. Ewers isn’t likely to challenge Wilson for the QB2 role, but with Tagovailoa’s frequent injury history, it makes sense to add a potential impact passer behind Wilson. Wilson has also struggled in a starting role in the past, so Ewers is actually in a decent position to see time as a starter relatively soon in his career.

Rams Open To Reacquiring Jalen Ramsey

April 26th, 2025 at 4:12pm CST by Sam Robinson

APRIL 26: Although the Dolphins have not unloaded Ramsey during the draft, NFL.com’s Ian Rapoport indicates a trade is still viewed as likely. McVay’s praise of Ramsey did not merely stem from the duo’s time together previously, as Rapoport adds the Rams are believed to be one of the interested teams.

APRIL 22: Joining Vic Fangio as 2023 Dolphins additions that will not lead to a long-term fit, Jalen Ramsey is on the trade block. Interested teams have a clear window to acquire the All-Pro cornerback — in what would be his third career trade — before and during the draft.

The Dolphins have let Ramsey seek a trade despite providing more guaranteed money — via a September 2024 extension (three years, $72.3MM) — soon after Patrick Surtain reset the cornerback market. A trade before June 1, however, would be pricey for the Dolphins, as $25.2MM in dead money (that is, if they do not eat any portion of Ramsey’s pay) would come their way. But the draft represents a natural trade window for the team to move off this recently authorized contract.

One potential suitor has emerged. Rams brass did not shut down the idea of reacquiring Ramsey two years after sending him to Miami.

“He’s a great player,” Sean McVay said, via The Athletic’s Jourdan Rodrigue. “We know him very well … we know him intimately. You would certainly never rule out the possibility of that. … There’s a lot of layers that would need to be worked out with a player of his magnitude, and some of the different things that accompany that. But you would never eliminate the possibility of adding a total stud.”

Les Snead has discussed trade parameters with the Dolphins, per Rodrigue, though this is merely teams touching base on trade-up or trade-down maneuvers ahead of the draft. The Rams could conceivably include Ramsey in such a move, if a pick-swap deal is to be considered. The team obtained a 2023 third-round pick and backup tight end Hunter Long for Ramsey in 2023. That represents a light return for a player pointed toward the Hall of Fame, and the Dolphins may not be able to fetch that; Ramsey will turn 31 this year.

The Rams have shown a willingness to reunite with corners they previously parted with. L.A. brought Troy Hill back via a trade during the 2022 draft, and the team re-signed Darious Williams after the Jaguars cut him last year. A Ramsey reunion would be a much higher-profile move, considering the nine-year veteran’s stature and contract. The Rams have two veteran deals (for Williams and Ahkello Witherspoon) on their payroll, but their CB group is not particularly costly right now. Rookie-deal presences comprise the rest of L.A.’s cornerback contingent.

While on the back nine in his career, Ramsey remains an upper-echelon corner. He earned Pro Bowl honors in a 10-game Dolphins 2023 debut, and while Pro-Football-Reference’s coverage metrics did not churn out comparable numbers last season, Pro Football Focus slotted the boundary stopper 10th among CBs in 2024. Ramsey is also signed through 2028, via an extension that contains modest base salaries but option bonuses. Ramsey’s 2025 compensation is also guaranteed, complicating matters further for an acquiring team. Thus far, clubs are not open to paying the full Ramsey freight in 2025.

The Rams acquired Ramsey while building their Super Bowl LVI-winning nucleus, sending the Jaguars two first-round picks as he staged an in-season hold-in of sorts. That deal worked out for the Rams, who saw Ramsey earn back-to-back first-team All-Pro honors in his first two full seasons (2020, 2021) in L.A. The team gave him a five-year, $100MM extension before the 2020 season, but by 2023, it was looking to cut costs. Los Angeles sent that $20MM-AAV deal to Miami, as Ramsey sought more guaranteed money. Not only did the Dolphins eventually extend him, they approved a reworking that featured more guaranteed money upon initially trading for him.

Miami completed a similar reworking with Tyreek Hill‘s contract last summer, as the future elite speed merchant angled for a redone deal. Both players are now trade candidates, though both Mike McDaniel and Chris Grier have voiced expectations Hill will be back in 2025.

Texans Acquire No. 116, Select RB Woody Marks

April 26th, 2025 at 11:56am CST by Ben Levine

The Texans are trading a future third-round pick to move into this year’s fourth round. Houston has acquired the No. 116 pick from the Dolphins. They’ve used their new selection on USC running back Woody Marks. Aaron Wilson of KPRC2 in Houston was first to report the trade.

Full trade details:

Texans receive

No. 116
No. 224

Dolphins receive

No. 179
2026 third-round pick

It’s an aggressive move by the Texans, continuing a trend throughout this entire draft. This marks GM Nick Caserio‘s sixth trade of the 2025 draft.

Marks had a breakout season during his first year at USC. After collecting around 3,000 yards from scrimmage in four years at Mississippi State, the RB collected 1,454 yards and nine touchdowns in his one season with the Trojans. He notably hauled in 261 catches during his college career, assuring he’ll at least have a career as a third-down back.

In Houston, he’ll be joining an RBs room that lacks convincing depth behind Joe Mixon. The rookie could easily slide into an RB2 role ahead of former starter Dameon Pierce, Dare Ogunbowale, J.J. Taylor, and Jawhar Jordan.

Dolphins Acquire No. 37 From Raiders

April 25th, 2025 at 6:26pm CST by Sam Robinson

The Dolphins are jumping up to No. 37, acquiring the pick from the Raiders. Miami will send Las Vegas Nos. 48, 98 and 135 for Nos. 37 and 143, NFL.com’s Mike Garafolo tweets.

Jonah Savaiinaea is heading to South Beach with the newly acquired pick. The Arizona O-lineman will help a Dolphins team that was linked to blockers in Round 1. Miami, however, went with Michigan DT Kenneth Grant. But it is circling back to an interior O-line need.

Losing Robert Hunt in free agency last year, the Dolphins are attacking their guard need this offseason by adding James Daniels (after his three-year Steelers stint) and now bringing in a second-round reinforcement. Savaiinaea profiles as a guard for the Dolphins, who had lost 2024 starter Robert Jones to the Cowboys in free agency. While Miami re-signed Liam Eichenberg, the former second-rounder profiles as more stopgap at this point. He is on a one-year deal.

A three-year Arizona starter, Savaiinaea only earned honorable mention All-Big 12 honors last season — as the conference expanded significantly — and honorable mention All-Pac-12 acclaim in 2023. But he ranked highly during the pre-draft process. The powerful blocker checked in at 324 pounds and rated as the fourth-ranked guard in this class, per The Athletic’s Dane Brugler. Savaiinaea also saw extensive time at right tackle with the Wildcats, teaming with 2024 Packers first-rounder Jordan Morgan.

Miami has Austin Jackson signed for two more years at right tackle, and the former first-rounder has strung together two mostly healthy seasons. Savaiinaea, however, should have a clear path to start opposite Daniels at Miami’s other guard spot, as Aaron Brewer remains in place at center on a line that will feature 2024 second-rounder Patrick Paul stepping in for Terron Armstead at LT.

Issues Between Jalen Ramsey, Mike McDaniel Led To Trade Talks

April 24th, 2025 at 11:19pm CST by Ben Levine

Jalen Ramsey and the Dolphins continue to seek trade options that would send the star cornerback out of Miami. With the draft representing an opportunity for the two sides to finalize a divorce, we’re getting more details on how we even got here in the first place.

According to Armando Salguero of Outkick, issues between the two sides aren’t connected to finances. Instead, a potential Ramsey exit is because the player doesn’t “see eye to eye” with head coach Mike McDaniel. In fact, Salguero goes as far as describing the relationship between the two as “irreparably broken,” and he says it’s hard to envision the cornerback playing again for head coach.

This actually isn’t the first time we’ve heard of potential issues in the locker room, specifically on the defensive side of the ball. Tony Pauline of Sportskeeda.com reported earlier today that McDaniel has “rubbed a lot of the veterans the wrong way” following the coach’s strong start to his career. Many of those defensive players would prefer to play elsewhere vs. sticking in Miami, and Pauline hints that’s a big reason why the organization has struggled to re-sign players on that side of the ball (and recruit replacements).

The Dolphins have told Ramsey that they’ll work with him to find a favorable landing spot, and this is probably a big reason why Salguero notes that the player has “respect” for GM Chris Grier. The Rams have already been mentioned as a landing spot for their former All-Pro cornerback, and there’s a chance more teams emerge if a trade isn’t consummated during the draft.

It’s been assumed the two sides were seeking a separation after Ramsey refused a pay cut, although Salguero says that’s not the reason for the inevitable trade. Further, the front office seemingly placated the player when they handed him more guaranteed money — via a September 2024 extension (three years, $72.3MM) — soon after Patrick Surtain reset the cornerback market.

The current issue with a Ramsey trade is timing, as a pre-June 1 trade would cost the Dolphins $25.2MM in dead money. The draft could be the best opportunity for the organization to get an offer built on draft picks, but they may just prefer to wait for financial flexibility.

Either way, it appears there’s no chance of Ramsey reversing course and returning to Miami next season.

Dolphins Select DT Kenneth Grant At No. 13

April 24th, 2025 at 8:35pm CST by Ely Allen

The Dolphins are adding along the defensive interior with their top pick. Miami has selected Michigan defensive tackle Kenneth Grant 13th overall. While teammate, and fellow first-round pick Mason Graham got much of the attention in the pre-draft runup, Grant has plenty to offer, as well, and he’ll take his talents to South Beach.

Unlike Graham, Grant worked more over center as a three-tech or one-tech lineman. Despite the large stature that makes him a perfect fit for such a role, Grant impressed with his mobility all over the field and his ability to chase down runners from sideline to sideline.

He doesn’t get into the quarterback’s lap too much, but he is a stout, immovable force in the middle of the line with quickness to move laterally down the line and stop the play. The Dolphins were connected to Grant earlier this week, having done a lot of work on the former national championship contributor. Miami will add a high-profile interior D-lineman a year after losing Christian Wilkins in free agency.

Miami already has one of the league’s best interior defenders in Zach Sieler, but without Wilkins, there isn’t much help around him on the defensive line. Enter: Grant. Grant should slot in immediately as a starter next to Sieler and, likely, Benito Jones. Grant occupying the middle should concentrate enough of the offensive line to free things up for a pass rush that finished with the sixth-fewest sacks in 2024.

Dolphins Eyeing Trade-Down Move; Team High On OL Armand Membou?

April 24th, 2025 at 3:19pm CST by Sam Robinson

Seeing another season marred by Tua Tagovailoa injury trouble, the Dolphins are at a crossroads. They enter the draft with Jalen Ramsey on the trade block, while Tyreek Hill trade murmurs persist. The seats are most likely warming in Miami.

Holding the No. 13 overall pick tonight, the Dolphins have discussed the prospect of trading down with multiple teams, the Miami Herald’s Omar Kelly notes. The Dolphins already hold 10 picks in this draft, but the 2025 class is viewed as one featuring stronger depth and weaker top-end talent. Teams are looking to move down, but there are not many players driving trade-up pursuits.

The Dolphins lost their fourth-round pick this year in an Eagles swap for backup running back Jaylen Wright, a player who should see more time post-Raheem Mostert. But Miami still has five picks between Rounds 3-5. That should allow Chris Grier good opportunities to stock his roster ahead of a pivotal year. This will be Grier’s seventh draft with full autonomy, though he has been in his GM chair since 2016.

If the Dolphins stick at No. 13, the prospect of a D-tackle investment has surfaced. An O-line move has also come up. Tied to Texas’ Kelvin Banks Jr. this week, Miami also is believed to be interested in Missouri’s Armand Membou, ESPN.com’s Matt Miller notes. Membou primarily played right tackle at Mizzou but is viewed as a guard by some teams. That could work against the prospect, as LTs are the priority adds early in the first round. But steady top-10 buzz has come Membou’s way. A fall to 13 could open a path to South Beach.

While Membou’s potential as a guard may work against him, it also could help him with Miami. The team likes his ability to play guard or tackle, per Miller. The Dolphins lost Robert Hunt to a $20MM-per-year Panthers offer in 2024 and replacement Robert Jones to a low-end Cowboys deal this year. Miami signed James Daniels from Pittsburgh and retained Liam Eichenberg, but the latter is on a one-year deal. Used across the formation during his rookie-contract years, Eichenberg could fall to the swing level if the Dolphins go with Membou or Banks in Round 1.

A tackle pick would be a bit more interesting, as the Dolphins have Patrick Paul positioned to replace Terron Armstead across from established RT starter Austin Jackson. The links to this draft’s tackle class, however, point to Miami exploring a reality in which one of those players does not start. Membou, though, could start early as a guard and then kick out to tackle down the road.

AFC East Notes: Patriots, Bills, Banks

April 22nd, 2025 at 9:23pm CST by Sam Robinson

Consistently given Will Campbell in mock drafts (including ours), the Patriots may not be locked into the left tackle the way the Titans are with Cam Ward at No. 1. Eleventh-hour Pats connections to Georgia hybrid defender Jalon Walker are emerging, via Sportskeeda.com’s Tony Pauline. Mike Vrabel has mentioned left tackle as a place the draft can provide an answer, and Pats-Campbell ties have persisted during the pre-draft process. Several reports have suggested the LSU product will be the Patriot pick. Walker recently auditioned for scouts, and Pauline adds the Pats sent a sizable contingent to a workout that also featured Georgia EDGE Mykel Williams. Pats brass soon dined with Walker, Pauline adds.

Showing the ability to be an edge defender and off-ball linebacker, Walker is expected to go off the board early. The Pats, who inquired about Myles Garrett and Maxx Crosby this offseason, came up previously in connection to passing on Campbell to draft a pass rusher. With Abdul Carter likely going to Cleveland or New York, New England would be shut out from this draft’s top prospect tier at 4. Campbell should probably still be considered the favorite to go fourth overall, but it is not a lock.

Here is the latest from the AFC East:

Also viewing Campbell as the Pats’ most likely pick, SI.com’s Albert Breer mentions Walker as a wild card. But the veteran reporter also points to a New England desire to accumulate more draft capital — even if it is unable to move off No. 4 (in a draft without a QB prompting aggressive trade-up offers like last year’s brought for the Pats). Kayshon Boutte, months after voicing frustration with his role, could be a player the team would consider moving to acquire an extra pick. Two years remain on the 2023 sixth-round receiver’s rookie contract.
Having seen four teammates (Khalil Shakir, Gregory Rousseau, Terrel Bernard, Christian Benford) receive early-offseason extension, James Cook is not joining his teammates for the start of the Bills‘ offseason program, Brandon Beane confirmed (via The Athletic’s Joe Buscaglia) Tuesday. Cook skipping voluntary work is not surprising; he has been upfront about his desire for an upper-crust extension this offseason. The Bills have viewed the breakout RB as a core player, but it remains to be seen if they will give the multipurpose back a deal in the $15MM-AAV range. Early talks have not brought progress. One season remains on Cook’s contract. While the Bills did pay former Day 2 picks Devin Singletary or Zack Moss, Cook has been a better player and is one of this year’s top extension candidates.
Extending Bernard and keeping Matt Milano via a pay-cut agreement, the Bills are in decent shape at linebacker. They are still being mentioned (via Schefter) as a team that could use a premium draft pick on the position. Holding the No. 30 overall choice, Buffalo is being tied to UCLA LB Carson Schwesinger. Milano having missed the bulk of the past two seasons does give Buffalo a bit of a need here, but the team has been more closely tied to other defensive positions in Round 1.
Another injury-prone player who once earned All-Pro acclaim in Buffalo, Tre’Davious White is back. Discarded in 2024, White spent the season with the Rams and Ravens. Although White has seen the injury trouble move him off the surefire starter tier, he has another chance in Buffalo. He said (via ESPN.com’s Alaina Getzenberg) following the Ravens’ divisional-round loss to the Bills that he began letting the team know he was interested in returning. At 30, White now profiles as a flier for a Bills team likely still looking for CB help.
The Dolphins have done plenty of D-tackle work leading up to this draft, but ESPN.com’s Adam Schefter also links Texas tackle Kelvin Banks Jr. to Miami at No. 13. Banks’ stock looks to have climbed late, as he has been tied to going as high as the Raiders at No. 6 or the Jets at 7. Miami has Patrick Paul prepared to replace Terron Armstead, as Austin Jackson remains at RT.
