Speculation grows on Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill's trade worth
The Athletic provides live coverage of the NFL 'Monday Night Football' doubleheader featuring Jets vs. Dolphins and Bengals vs. Broncos.
The Miami Dolphins are facing a challenging season, leading to speculation about the future of wide receiver Tyreek Hill with the team. Hill, known for his speed and unique skills, could be a valuable trade asset for the Dolphins before the November 4 deadline. However, his trade value is uncertain due to ongoing reviews of domestic violence allegations made by his estranged wife. The Dolphins, who have started the season with three losses and faced injuries, are set to play the winless New York Jets on "Monday Night Football."
Thirteen team executives and coaches were asked to assess Hill's trade value, with opinions varying. While some believe the Dolphins could secure a third-round draft pick for Hill, others suggest a late-round pick due to concerns about his off-field issues. The Kansas City Chiefs, who traded Hill to Miami in 2022, are also being considered as a potential destination, given their offensive struggles this season.
Despite a decline in production, Hill could still be a valuable addition to a team looking for a big-play threat. He is under contract until 2026 but has no guaranteed money beyond this season. The Dolphins may consider trading Hill to address their team-wide offensive challenges and make necessary adjustments to salvage their season. However, some executives believe the Dolphins may have missed the opportunity to maximize Hill's trade value in previous seasons.
As the trade deadline approaches, the Dolphins must decide whether to move Hill to potentially secure a higher draft pick. The outcome will depend on the interest from other teams and the willingness to take on the risks associated with acquiring Hill. The decision to trade Hill could impact the Dolphins' future plans and roster adjustments.
