The Miami Dolphins are looking to fix their roster for the next two years. After all, they will have less than $10 million in cap space for the 2026 season, which is a significant concern. And since they are expected to make multiple deals soon, offloading Jalen Ramsey’s contract via trade might provide some relief. Plus, there is immense pressure on HC Mike McDaniel to make his first playoff appearance in the upcoming season, and for that, he will need QB Tua Tagovailoa to be at his best. Naturally, the signal-caller will need some great weapons in order to excel.

He has Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle already—two great outside receivers. But when it comes to questions about the slot, the Dolphins have Malik Washington (who recorded just 26 catches for 223 yards and no touchdowns) and Tahj Washington (who missed his entire rookie season due to an injury). That’s not a great position to be in, and so, ESPN’s Aaron Schatz believes that’s the perfect opportunity to get in a seasoned veteran like Keenan Allen.

In his ESPN report, he wrote, “Allen is 33 but still had 70 catches for 744 yards and seven touchdowns in Chicago a season ago. He did poorly in ESPN’s receiver tracking metrics last season but still got open, as indicated by his 57 open score. Hill and Waddle would give Allen a ton of room to work with underneath, giving quarterback Tua Tagovailoa a nice security blanket.”

It makes sense. After all, the team has an excellent wide receiver duo, but they will need additional help. Currently, their third WR could be Nick Westbrook-Ikhine (who recorded a mediocre 32 catches for 497 yards across 17 games with the Titans), with the Washington brothers in the potential rotation. However, Allen statistically outperformed all of them combined last season, and that was despite the Bears’ offensive issues. And considering he is not getting any younger, he might not mind standing behind Hill and Waddle in the pecking order.

If the team decides to make such a move, though, it could work against veterans like Jalen Ramsey and Jonnu Smith. Miami might move on from them. But wait, is there something unexpected going on with Tyreek Hill?

Tyreek Hill on the trade block? Dolphins weigh speed vs. McDaniel strategy

While McDaniel might crave Allen’s surgeon-like precision in the slot, a wild rumor is doing the rounds of the rumor mill. Bleacher Report came up with a hypothetical three-team blockbuster trade between the Cardinals, Dolphins, and Giants.

Dolphins Get: Edge Kayvon Thibodeaux
Cardinals Get: WR Tyreek Hill
Giants Get: OT Jonah Williams

“In order to maximize quarterback Kyler Murray’s capabilities, a duo of Hill and Harrison is nightmare fuel for opposing defensive coordinators. Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon previously served in that role, and he understands how Hill’s speed tilts the field in the offense’s favor,” BR’s Brent Sobleski wrote. Trading Hill would be a big decision for the Dolphins, but with cap space becoming an issue, and the Giants moving Kayvon Thibodeaux, it could become a possibility.

In fact, ‘AtoZ Sports’ Kyle Crabbs believes Hill might be on his way out after the upcoming season as he won’t be in his contract year in 2025. So HC McDaniel might have to make a decision soon. Do you think that potentially trading Tyreek Hill could be the answer? Let us know in the comments below.
