We may not be completely done with the Miami Dolphins veteran trade speculation after a new revelation by an AFC general manager

“There may be some potential trades we can look at and some other things we can do to address that position.” Please don’t.

Just when you thought you were out of the woods with the Miami Dolphins trade speculation. They pull you back in!

The 2026 NFL Draft is in the books and with it comes the closing of the book for a lot of roster additions for teams across the NFL. The Dolphins are highly likely to to be among the list of teams who generally roll with what they’ve got. But some teams across the league aren’t too keen with how the board broke in this year’s draft — and trades may be on the table.

It may just pull a Miami Dolphins veteran back into wild speculation for a while.

“It didn’t work out for us this past weekend. I think there may be some potential trades we can look at and some other things we can do to address that position.”

On the team's center situation

Oh boy. Here we go.

For the record, I don’t think the Miami Dolphins would move center Aaron Brewer. If the Ravens were keen on keeping an athletic center, they could have just moved heaven and earth to get a deal done with Tyler Linderbaum. Instead, the Las Vegas Raiders inked Linderbaum on a big deal for $27 million annually and the Ravens have been looking to fill the void ever since.

Acquiring Brewer from the Dolphins would require significant draft capital and then a new contract to justify the trade. I’m not sure we should expect DeCosta to have an appetite to do that. But until the Miami Dolphins get their own contract extension done with Brewer, speculation may not go away.

Given Miami’s first-round investment into OL Kadyn Proctor and the reasoning lying in investing in the group around QB Malik Willis, I don’t see it from Miami’s side of the fence either. But the All-Pro is in line for a major, major payday and the Dolphins are bulking up in the trenches, too.

So you can never say never. I, for one, am simply saying ‘no thank you’ to any overtures from the Ravens. You don’t fix your offensive line by getting rid of the good players on it. So I’d tell DeCosta to go calling elsewhere in his own search for a fix.
