Chronological Timeline
2 Recorded Trades
Trade 1 of 2
Cleveland Browns and Houston Texans
Cleveland traded pick No. 43 to Houston in the 2015 draft and received Nos. 51, 116 and 195. The Browns used No. 51 on Nate Orchard and No. 195 on Malcolm Johnson, while No. 116 later moved again rather than directly becoming Rodney Gunter for Cleveland. The added volume did not produce a player comparable to Houston linebacker Benardrick McKinney, leaving Cleveland behind in hindsight.

- Pick 2015 2nd round pick (51st overall, Nate Orchard)
- Pick 2015 4th round pick (116th overall; subsequently traded by Cleveland)

Houston Texans and Miami Dolphins
Miami acquired linebacker Benardrick McKinney and pick No. 231 from Houston for edge defender Shaq Lawson and pick No. 203. Neither veteran produced regular-season value for his new club, leaving the late-round selections to carry much of the comparison. Miami eventually used No. 231 on tackle Larnel Coleman, giving the Dolphins at least one realized player return from the exchange.

Miami Dolphins
- Player Benardrick McKinney
- Pick 2021 7th round pick (231st overall, Larnel Coleman)
Houston Texans
