On Tuesday, Miami Dolphins general manager Chris Grier told the media that the team is looking to trade cornerback Jalen Ramsey. That news seems to line up with the appearance that Miami is looking to scale things back and perhaps make significant changes moving forward.
Recently, an executive of another NFL team told The Athletic that he feels this offseason could be “the start of a little reset” for the Dolphins. If Ramsey does indeed get moved at some point in the next few months, that statement could turn out to be very true, especially if it is also accompanied by another trade involving star wide receiver Tyreek Hill.
There will surely be several teams who will be interested in Ramsey. Ryan Clark, the former NFL safety and Super Bowl champion who is now an ESPN analyst, said the Buffalo Bills are the one team that needs Ramsey more than any other.
“You look at a team that are gonna go into the season, or at least right now on their roster, with Dane Jackson and [Christian] Benford at the corner positions, and also at safety, Damar Hamlin and Taylor Rapp. Jalen Ramsey is an extremely versatile player. … I look at his versaility, his length, his ability to play in all the positions in the secondary, and I believe he’s a plug-and-play starter at so many spots for the Buffalo Bills.
“And if you go back to the root of their problem in the AFC Championship, it wasn’t that they got stopped on a two-point conversion on a tush push or stopped on a fourth-and-one on a tush push. It’s the fact that the Kansas City Chiefs that clearly couldn’t score on anybody, as we saw the next week, were able to put up 32 points. Jalen Ramsey becomes an immediate upgrade at so many positions in that secondary, and it is time for Josh Allen to get over the hump — in order to do that, that defense needs to ball.”

Even at age 30, Ramsey appears to have a good deal remaining in his tank. He had 11 passes defended, six tackles for loss, four quarterback hits, two interceptions and 60 total tackles (39 solo) last season.

He is a seven-time Pro Bowler, and while he was with the Los Angeles Rams, he won a Super Bowl championship during the 2021 season.
The Super Bowl championship is something that has constantly eluded the Bills, often in cruel fashion. In last season’s AFC Championship Game, they faced a Chiefs team that was thought to be vulnerable, only to lose by three points.
They finished the season ranked 24th in passing yards and passing touchdowns allowed. While new addition Joey Bosa, a five-time Pro Bowler, can provide some additional pass-rushing, Buffalo’s secondary absolutely has to improve if it is to take that final step and finally bring home the Vince Lombardi Trophy.
