The Miami Dolphins have gone out and made a huge splash before the start of the league year.
According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, the Dolphins and Los Angeles Rams have agreed to a trade that will send cornerback Jalen Ramsey to South Florida. In return, the Rams will receive a 2023 third-round pick (No. 77 overall) and tight end Hunter Long.
With the Dolphins informing Byron Jones of his release, as a post-June 1 designation, Ramsey will join Xavien Howard to form a fearsome duo in Miami’s secondary.
Long, after two years without making much of an impact, will get a fresh start in Sean McVay’s system.
There had been rumors and discussions in recent weeks regarding Ramsey potentially landing in Miami, and now it looks like its finally happening.
Byron Jones is out, Xavien is up in age and down in prime, and the youth is still developing with Kader and hope Miami brings back Needham. Trill is another name to watch develop.
Regardless – I think a HUGE splash is heading Miami's way at Cornerback.
