The Dolphins are looking to trade cornerback Jalen Ramsey, having paid a $4 million roster bonus with $21 million remaining on his contract. This move follows the departure of other key players like Calais Campbell and Terron Armstead this offseason. General Manager Chris Grier dismissed the notion that the team is undergoing a soft rebuild, emphasizing their goal to win this year and ensure sustained success in the future.
Despite not making the playoffs since 2024 and lacking postseason success in recent decades, Grier and coach Mike McDaniel are determined to deliver results. Grier, heading into his 10th season, acknowledges the pressure to perform but remains focused on making sound decisions for the team. With a history of playoff appearances but no wins during Grier's tenure, the Dolphins aim to overcome challenges and silence critics by prioritizing consistent performance and strategic planning for the franchise's future.
