This move is part of a broader rebuild of the teams passing attack, which also includes cutting quarterback Tua Tagovailoa and wide receiver Tyreek Hill.

In exchange, they picked up Denver's first round draft choice at number 30, plus third and fourth round picks at numbers 94 and 1. 130 while giving up their own fourth rounder. This marched the first big splash for new general manager John Erick Sullivan in his early days on the job. Waddle leads after five strong seasons, with 373 catches over 5,000 yards and 26 touchdowns. Drafted six overall in 2021, he hit the 1,000 yard mark in his first three years before slowing down lately. The move fits Miami's total rebuild of their passing attack under Sullivan and new coach Jeff Halfley. They already cut quarterback to Otago Veloa, now with the Atlanta Falcons and wide receiver Tyree Kill, breaking up one of the league's top trios, from 2023. To rebuild, the dolphin signed wide receivers,
Jalen Tollbert from Dallas and Tutu Atwell from the Rams and Free Agency. They returned slot-man Malik Washington and have young options like Theo Wies Jr. and others waiting in the wings. Now with seven picks in the first three rounds, including two first rounders, they're loaded for the draft. Sullivan, fresh from the Green Bay Packers, also traded safety mink of Fitzpatrick to the New York Jets last week. But the overhaul comes at a cost with over $175 million in dead money hitting in 2026. The Daily News Now is grateful to our sponsor for today's episode.
