Dolphins' 0-5 Start Raises Trade, Draft Questions

The 0-5 Miami Dolphins are struggling to move the ball through the air, with Malik Willis’ low production and turnovers contributing to a passing offense near the bottom of the league. The team is also confronting the possibility of another losing season: current draft-order listings place Miami second, while an ESPN mock draft projects the Dolphins taking Oklahoma State quarterback Drew Mestemaker, though the order could change substantially with 12 games remaining. Miami’s youth movement could extend to the trade deadline, where defensive lineman Zach Sieler has been floated as a trade candidate, despite his preference to stay. Looking ahead, the Dolphins are expected to have significant spending room and could pursue difference-makers in free agency, with Lions tight end Sam LaPorta discussed as a potential target if he reaches the market.
