Trade 1 of 3
Miami Dolphins and Tennessee Titans
Miami sent Ryan Tannehill and a 2019 sixth-round pick to Tennessee for a 2019 seventh-rounder and a 2020 fourth-round pick. The Dolphins were resetting their roster and moved on from an expensive veteran quarterback, but Tannehill immediately revived his career with the Titans, winning Comeback Player of the Year and helping Tennessee reach the 2019 AFC Championship Game. Miami’s draft return never approached that level of impact.

- Pick 2020 4th round pick (135th overall subsequently traded, Kevin Dotson)

Miami Dolphins and Pittsburgh Steelers
Pittsburgh traded a 2020 first-rounder and smaller draft pieces for 22-year-old Minkah Fitzpatrick, receiving a 2020 fourth-rounder and 2021 seventh-rounder in return. Fitzpatrick immediately became the centerpiece of the secondary, earning first-team All-Pro honors and repeatedly delivering game-changing takeaways. The Steelers paid premium capital, but they acquired a proven young defensive star rather than merely hoping to draft one with the pick.
Assets Received
Pittsburgh Steelers
- Pick Minkah Fitzpatrick, 2020 4th round pick (135th overall, Kevin Dotson) and 2021 7th round pick (245th overall, Tre Norwood)
Miami Dolphins
- Pick 2020 1st round pick (18th overall, Austin Jackson), 2020 5th round pick (154th overall, Jason Strowbridge) and 2021 6th round pick (207th overall subsequently traded, Jonathan Marshall)

Los Angeles Rams and Pittsburgh Steelers
Los Angeles acquired Kevin Dotson plus Pittsburgh's 2024 fifth- and 2025 sixth-round picks for the Rams' 2024 fourth- and 2025 fifth-round choices. Dotson immediately became a starting guard, then re-signed on a three-year deal and started 45 regular-season games for Los Angeles from 2023 through 2025. Pittsburgh gained better draft positions, but the Rams found a high-level long-term starter at a manageable trade price.
Assets Received
Los Angeles Rams
- Player Kevin Dotson
- Pick 2024 5th round pick (155th overall subsequently traded, Jeremiah Trotter)
- Pick 2025 6th round pick (195th overall subsequently traded, Luke Newman)
Pittsburgh Steelers
