Miami Dolphins and Tennessee Titans

Houston Oilers/Tennessee Titans Win Tier: major Confidence: high

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.

Assets Received

Miami Dolphins
  • Pick 2019 7th round pick (233rd overall, Chandler Cox)
  • Pick 2020 4th round pick (135th overall subsequently traded, Kevin Dotson)
Tennessee Titans
  • Player Ryan Tannehill
  • Pick 2019 6th round pick (188th overall, David Long)

Miami Dolphins and Pittsburgh Steelers

Pittsburgh Steelers Win Tier: landmark Confidence: high

Pittsburgh bought an All-Pro safety at age 22 for a first-round pick and modest extra draft value. Minkah Fitzpatrick immediately changed the Steelers defense, became one of the NFL's premier safeties, and gave Pittsburgh the kind of young blue-chip defender teams almost never acquire in September. Miami received Austin Jackson and smaller pick value, but the return never approached Fitzpatrick's impact. This was a clear Steelers win.

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 Rams Win Tier: standard Confidence: high

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
  • Pick 2024 4th round pick (120th overall subsequently traded, Jaylen Wright)
  • Pick 2025 5th round pick (162nd overall subsequently traded, Francisco Mauigoa)
