Most of those chapters are either, &#8216;he won&#8217;t get traded,&#8217; or &#8216;he will get traded,&#8217; but you get what I&#8217;m trying to say.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-2\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\">Right now, it certainly seems like there&#8217;s a trade coming. When it happens is the &#8220;fun&#8221; guessing game that Dolphins fans are getting to play right now, but make no mistake about it \u2013 Adam Schefter thinks a trade is coming, which means so do I. In fact, Adam Schefter&#8217;s latest report about this chapter of the Jalen Ramsey Dolphins trade saga makes me as sure as I&#8217;ve ever been that it&#8217;s a matter of when, not if. It also makes me feel incredible levels of hopelessness about Miami&#8217;s cap situation. That&#8217;s how great of an update it is.<\/p>\n<div id=\"inarticle_d_1_4\" class=\"mm-slot-content\"><\/div>\n<hr class=\"h-1 w-full border-0 my-4 bg-lightGrey\" \/>\n<h2 id=\"inline-text-4\" class=\"scroll-mt-24 my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\">A Jalen Ramsey trade could make the Dolphins&#8217; cap situation kinda messy<\/h2>\n<figure class=\"min-h-[550px]\">\n<div><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p id=\"inline-text-6\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\">Whoever made up the phrase &#8216;beauty is in the eye of the beholder&#8217; was very clearly looking at Over The Cap when they did it, because Ramsey&#8217;s trade set up presents about as fun a debate as you can get from being on that site. On one hand, losing Ramsey would be bad. He&#8217;s still good, and it&#8217;s not like the Dolphins&#8217; secondary can afford to lose him right now. Maybe he&#8217;s not the guy he was at his peak, but time makes fools of us all and a quick peruse on Pro Football Focus is enough to convince yourself he still has it.<\/p>\n<div id=\"inarticle_d_1_5\" class=\"mm-slot-content\"><\/div>\n<p id=\"inline-text-7\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\" data-uw-rm-sr=\"\">There&#8217;s no denying his cap number is a problem, though, and according to OTC, if the Dolphins designate any sort of trade as a post-June 1 trade \u2013 like the tweet mentions \u2013 they&#8217;d save more than $9 million this year. That number gets bigger each season through 2028, though none of Ramsey&#8217;s money is guaranteed after this season, so that&#8217;s a problem for another team&#8217;s cap department.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-8\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-secondary my-f-1\" data-uw-rm-sr=\"\">Frankly, the Dolphins are pretty fortunate his trade market is as strong as it is. Cutting him would be financially disastrous, almost to the point where it&#8217;s not feasible. So now they&#8217;re just stuck between trading away a guy for a few mid-round picks, paying him $30-something million dollars to go away, or keeping a very unhappy player on the roster. Enjoy your summer, Chris Grier.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/main><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So much for it being a slow summer in Miami.
