Dolphins Trade Waddle, Stockpile Draft Picks

It's March 17 for the NFL, let's get into it.

The Miami Dolphins made a big trade on Tuesday, sending wide receiver Jalen Waddle and a fourth-round

pick to the Denver Broncos.

In return, they got a first-round pick at 30th overall, a third-rounder at 94th and another

fourth-rounder at 130th.

This deal starts their rebuild under new general manager John Eric Sullivan and head coach

Jeff Hathley.

Now the Dolphins hold two first-round picks, their own at 11th overall, plus Denver's

30th.

They're freeing up salary cap space this off-season and have plenty of roster holes to fill

across the team.

Fans and analysts see this as a smart reset, especially with defensive needs standing out despite

some recent free agent signings.

The move shits high-cost talent like Waddle to stockpile draft ammo for the long haul.

In a failed media's Daniel Jeremiah, updated his 2026 mag draft to match the trade.

He has Miami-grabbing LSU cornerback, Mansour Delane at 11th overall, a consistent press

coverage guy with size and speed to start right away on.

Defense.

Meanwhile, at 30th overall, Jeremiah projects Auburn Edge Russia Kildrick Falk, a versatile

athlete fresh off 7 sacks who fits coach Hathley's scheme.

The Dolphins can hunt receiver value later with their day-to-picks in a deep class.
