With Miami Dolphins training camp starting in just about a week and a half, the team is gearing up to return to the practice fields in sunny Miami Gardens. After a flurry of moves this offseason, the organization’s roster looks much different than it has in recent memory.
However, the team still has time to put the finishing touches on their facelift ahead of the 2026 NFL season — and Bleacher Report has a couple of ideas as to how the Dolphins could continue to reshape their roster under the watchful
eye of new general manager Jon-Eric Sullivan.
Trade mid-round pick for Carolina Panthers WR Xavier Legette
Based on overall career production, the Dolphins have the worst wide receiver corps. If they want to see quarterback Malik Willis make strides as a first-time, full-time starter, the club should look to bolster its pass-catching group. Miami could inquire about Legette, who may need a change of scenery.
Through two seasons, Legette has caught 84 passes for 860 yards and seven touchdowns in 31 contests. As a former first-round pick, he’s underwhelmed, but a new opportunity to be the No. 1 wideout in Miami could lead to increased production.
Trade RB Jaylen Wright to Houston Texans for late-round pick
The Texans acquired running back David Montgomery from the Detroit Lions to bolster their ground attack. He’s entering his age-29 term after sharing the backfield with Jahmyr Gibbs for three seasons. Houston should add another early-down ball-carrier to split touches with Montgomery. Last season, Woody Marks averaged an inefficient 3.6 yards per carry as the team’s lead rusher.
Houston can inquire about Wright, who may be expendable on the Miami Dolphins’ rebuilding squad. He’s in competition with Ollie Gordon II for the No. 2 spot behind De’Von Achane. This move would give the Texans a solid early-down duo while Marks retains a specialist receiving role and adds kick-return duties.
