Colton McKivitz

Miami acquired Matt Breida from San Francisco for a 2020 fifth-round pick that became Colton McKivitz. Breida never became a major Dolphins piece, while the 49ers turned a running back into useful draft value. San Francisco wins the trade.

Miami acquired 2020 5th round pick (153rd overall subsequently traded, Colton McKivitz) from Cardinals for Kenyan Drake. The Laremy Tunsil blockbuster gave Miami multiple premium picks and Jevon Holland-level value, one of the franchise’s largest asset wins. The grade still accounts for era, role, uncertainty in conditional picks or cash terms, and whether the traded asset produced meaningful on-field value after the move. Outcome supported by championship impact, awards recognition, and clear superiority over the assets surrendered

Miami acquired Josh Rosen from Cardinals for 2019 2nd round pick (62nd overall, Andy Isabella) and 2020 5th round pick (153rd overall subsequently traded, Colton McKivitz). Miami spent premium capital on a quarterback reclamation that quickly failed, one of the clearer rebuild-era misses. This grade weighs both process and hindsight: the draft capital or player value Miami surrendered, the value it received, and whether the trade created durable roster impact rather than just short-term depth. Where records are incomplete, conditional, voided, or future-dated, the grade is intentionally conservative
