Dolphins Touted As Top Contenders To Trade For Browns QB
The Miami Dolphins‘ season took a new low last weekend, when the franchise dropped to 1-6 after getting hammered by the lowly Cleveland Browns.
Amidst what has been an underwhelming year for quarterback,
It would seem unlikely that either former #2 overall pick by the New York Jets, Zach Wilson, or rookie seventh rounder, Quinn Ewers, could take over the reins at the position in the coming year or two, but there may be other talents in the league worth looking at.
And, according to Sports Illustrated’s Angela Miele, a trade for Cleveland QB, Shedeur Sanders, could make significant sense for both the player and Miami.
Miele presents the Dolphins as one of three teams that could look to make a deal for the former Colorado Buffalo, along with the Jets and
Browns Could Be Willing To Move Shedeur Sanders
“[Alongside the Jets] Other teams to watch for are the Las Vegas Raiders and Miami Dolphins, who could look for a change or a possible future starter.”
“Through seven games, Sanders has not seen the field during the regular-season. The former Colorado star is working in practice, and it was recently reported that Sanders is developing at a quick rate. The issue is the lack of playing time, and there is no guarantee he will get game snaps with the Browns this year.”
“Trading Sanders could be what the former Colorado star needs to see the field. As the Browns see what they have in Gabriel, Sanders is still waiting for his opportunity to play.”
This tracks with what was reported by ESPN Cleveland, which stated that fellow SI writer, Albert Breer, reported that Sanders could be moved ahead of the trade deadline.
“Albert Breer wrote today, and he thinks there is a possibility that the Browns could deal Shedeur Sanders before the deadline,”
Would Sanders Make Sense For The Dolphins?
Right now, a trade for such a high profile player – one that many still have strong convictions about, with regard to his ability to eventually become a starting quarterback in the
It would, in effect, be telling Tua that the team is actively looking for new options and potential replacements for him, looking down the line.
The problem for Miami is that the former Alabama product is essentially un-cuttable prior to 2027; if they decide to move off him next year, they will incur a massive
Sanders is also not a proven quarterback in the league, and may simply function as upgraded Tagovailoa insurance in case of another injury to the QB, who has struggled to stay healthy over the course of his career in the pros.
Irregardless, the way things are looking, a new quarterback could be starting under center for the Dolphins sooner rather than later.
Los Angeles Rams overhaul secondary, prepare for one last Super Bowl push with Matthew Stafford in latest 7-round 2026 mock draft
The Los Angeles Rams are enjoying a bye week this week after a dominant victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars in London last week. As the Rams continue to open up the offense
However, like every team, the team has holes they'll need to fill. With the 2026 NFL Draft getting closer and closer, the bye week provides a perfect window to explore the needs this team has to address moving forward.
Thanks to a trade last year, the Rams have plenty of draft capital to play with in the upcoming 2026 NFL Draft, making it one that every Rams fan should be excited about.
Los Angeles Rams 7-round 2026 NFL Mock Draft
Round 1, Pick 15 (via ATL): Jermod McCoy, CB, Tennessee
To no one's surprise, cornerback is the first position taken here. This could be different if the Rams decide to make a move at the trade deadline, but it would take a massive move to change the trajectory of this room.
Jermod McCoy is a smooth, athletic ballhawk and still projects as one of the top cover corners in the draft, even after missing most of the season due to injury.
Round 1, Pick 23: Caleb Lomu, OT, Utah
The Rams need to find a solution long term to right tackle, as Rob Havenstein is on the verge of retirement and their depth is poor at best. I am a huge fan of Caleb Lomu's movement skills and pass protection ability, something the Rams desperately need to improve in the long term if they want to stay atop the NFC.
Round 2, Pick 54: Kamari Ramsey, SAF, USC
We'll see if Quentin Lake and/or Kamren Curl get extended, but Les Snead has never once extended a safety as general manager of the Rams. That leaves a fairly stark void in the secondary that needs to be filled ASAP by a promising rookie (and not another UDFA, I'm begging).
Kamari Ramsey is a smart, physical safety who has made plays all over for the Trojans' defense and would be a seamless replacement (and perhaps upgrade) over Kamren Curl.

S Kamari Ramsey (6-0, 205) is one of the more well-rounded 2026 prospects that I’ve watched. Wears every hat in the secondary. Easy mover, range as a FS, brings it in run support, extremely smart with route recognition and attacks the ball.pic.twitter.com/tgcClyONIS — Jordan Reid (@Jordan_Reid) August 15, 2025
Round 3, Pick 88: Chris Johnson, CB, San Diego State
Four picks, three defensive backs. Can you tell what position group the Rams need to fix the most?
I love Chris Johnson's game, and he is likely the best G5 prospect in the 2026 NFL Draft. He's allowing just forty percent of his passes to be completed, shining with his terrific twitch and change of direction ability to stick with receivers in man coverage. He can line up in the slot or outside, giving the Rams two terrific playmakers at cornerback.
Round 5, Pick 143 (via TEN): Aaron Anderson, WR, LSU
The Rams don't need to invest an early pick at receiver, given the presence of Puka Nacua and Davante Adams, but they still need to fill out this room.
Aaron Anderson might be a "slot only" receiver at the next level, but he's a strong playmaker out of the slot, generating separation and making plays after the catch.
Round 5, Pick 162: Armaj Reed-Adams, OG, Texas A&M
After being snakebitten with poor depth along the interior of the offensive line, it's finally time the Rams put a draft pick here to add talent.
Round 6, Pick 191 (via HOU): Kendal Daniels, LB, Oklahoma
Should the Rams invest an earlier draft pick at linebacker? Yes. Will they? I'm not convinced. Kendal Daniels is the kind of high character, hard-hitting run defender mold they tend to target.
Round 6, Pick 205: Taylen Green, QB, Arkansas
If the Rams don't take an early swing at quarterback, I think they'll probably punt entirely on it in the 2026 NFL Draft. However, Sean McVay wants a dual threat he can be creative with, and Taylen Green is much more dynamic than any other option left on the board here.

Round 7, Pick 220 (via BAL): Tanner Koziol, TE, Houston
I'm hoping that Terrance Ferguson locks up the starting tight end job moving forward, but with Tyler Higbee likely playing his last year with the Rams and Colby Parkinson a likely cap casualty, the Rams need to replenish the talent at tight end.
