The Miami Dolphins have made a few trades to acquire players in the last couple of seasons that have positively impacted the team.
In 2022, Miami acquired two Pro Bowlers in trades, wide receiver Tyreek Hill and linebacker Bradley Chubb, as well as running back Jeff Wilson Jr.
This offseason, the Dolphins traded for cornerback Jalen Ramsey, who is currently on injured reserve recovering from a meniscus injury.
On Friday, Miami completed another transaction, acquiring wide receiver Chase Claypool from the Chicago Bears. This is the second trade the Dolphins have made with the Bears in the last few months, as they sent Dan Feeney to Chicago during roster cuts.
With the news of the Claypool trade, Hill shared his initial thoughts on Twitter.

Hill’s been extremely supportive of his teammates since arriving in Miami, so it wouldn’t be surprising to see him take the newcomer under his wing.
Miami’s receiver room now includes Hill, Claypool, Jaylen Waddle, Braxton Berrios, Cedrick Wilson Jr. and Robbie Chosen. It’s arguably the deepest group in the league, and that doesn’t even include River Cracraft and Erik Ezukanma, who are currently on injured reserve and the non-football injury list, respectively.
