Dolphins trade idea finally brings a wide receiver in for new quarterback Malik Willis originally appeared on The Sporting News . Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here . The Miami Dolphins have attempted to get better in certain areas during the offseason, but much of it has centered on what they still need to do.

I like the idea of bringing in Malik Willis, as he's proven during his young career that he has a lot of tools and could be a decent player one day, something the Dolphins need, but that doesn't mean he'll find success if the rest of the roster isn't up to the standard it needs to be. Sticking with the offensive side of the football, the Dolphins could use a lot of help in their wide receiver room. After moving on from Jaylen Waddle in a deal with the Denver Broncos , and also getting rid of Tyreek Hill, the Dolphins simply have one of the worst wide receiver rooms in the NFL, and that's putting it nicely.

A recent trade idea wouldn't fix all of that, but it would certainly bring Miami closer than it is now. Dolphins get: Xavier Legette, 2026 Sixth Round Pick (No. 200) Carolina Panthers Receive - 2026 Fifth Round Pick (No.

151), 2026 Seventh Round Pick (238) “Miami desperately needs weapons because they want their new quarterback to have a shot to be successful; however, they are also on a tight budget due to all the dead cap space they have taken on from moving on from stars to start this rebuild. “What they do have is a ton of draft picks. It's unlikely they'll find a more talented receiver with more upside than Legette on Day 3 of the draft.
