Miami Dolphins general manager Chris Grier may not have much to do once the 2023 NFL draft rolls around.
ESPN's Adam Schefter reported Sunday the Dolphins are acquiring star cornerback Jalen Ramsey from the Los Angeles Rams for a third-round pick (No. 77) and tight end Hunter Long.
The offseason is only just getting started, so things remain in flux to some degree. For now, here's how the Dolphins defense could line up in its 3-4 scheme with the addition of the six-time Pro Bowler:
Miami Dolphins Defense
- DE: Christian Wilkins, Justin Zimmer
- NT: Raekwon Davis, John Jenkins
- DE: Emmanuel Ogbah, Zach Sieler
- WLB: Jaelen Phillips, Melvin Ingram
- LILB: Elandon Roberts, Sam Eguavoen
- RILB: Jerome Baker, Duke Riley
- SLB: Bradley Chubb, Andrew Van Ginkel
- LCB: Xavien Howard, Kader Kohou
- SS: Eric Rowe, Brandon Jones
- FS: Jevon Holland, Verone McKinley III
- RCB: Jalen Ramsey*, Nik Needham
If you're not keeping track at home, this trade will leave Miami with just four picks in the 2023 draft.
