Jonnu Smith, Dolphins, Steelers Have Discussed Jonnu Smith Trade

According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the Miami Dolphins and Pittsburgh Steelers have discussed a trade involving Pro Bowl tight end Jonnu Smith. These trade talks came after Smith hinted at wanting a new deal following his career season. The 29-year-old is due $4.8 million this season after catching 88 passes for 884 yards and eight touchdowns in his first season with Miami. Smith is outside the top 20 highest-paid players at the position, so asking for a raise is warranted. Smith spent the 2023 season with current Steelers offensive coordinator Arthur Smith in Atlanta after spending four seasons with him in Tennessee from 2017 to 2020. That said, he would have instant familiarity with his system if he's dealt to Pittsburgh. If this trade materializes, the fantasy stocks of Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle would rise, while Pat Freiermuth could be at risk of falling off the fantasy radar.

Jaylen Waddle, Jaylen Waddle Looking Good at OTAs

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle was the star of the show during organized team activities on Wednesday, according to the Miami Herald's Omar Kelly. Waddle had career-lows across the board in catches (58), targets (83), receiving yards (744) and touchdowns (two) in 15 starts in his fourth NFL season in 2024 in a Dolphins offense that lacked the explosive plays they became so well-known for the previous two years. The 26-year-old still has plenty of speed to spare, but because of his down season in 2024, he has fallen down draft boards early on this offseason. The former sixth overall pick has the ability to bounce back for fantasy managers in 2025, but it could depend on Miami's offensive-line play and the health of quarterback Tua Tagovailoa. Waddle is no longer being considered a WR1 and could even be a shaky WR2 asset, depending on how the Dolphins' offense rebounds.

Tyreek Hill, Tyreek Hill Hasn't Resumed Catching the Ball

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill (wrist) has not started catching the ball yet during offseason workouts, according to head coach Mike McDaniel. Outside of catching balls, Hill is taking part in most of the drills during organized team activities. The 31-year-old All-Pro speedster had two surgeries on his left wrist this offseason but has also been bothered by his right wrist. Miami's passing attack suffered in 2024, with Hill falling short of the 1,000-yard mark for the first time since 2019, and he also tied his career-low with six receiving touchdowns in 17 starts. The five-time All-Pro and eight-time Pro Bowl may never get back to 1,700 receiving yards like he did in 2022 and 2023, but he could be a nice value pick in fantasy drafts if both he and quarterback Tua Tagovailoa can stay healthy in 2025. Hill is currently on the WR1/WR2 borderline.

Brett Gabbert, Brett Gabbert Signed by Dolphins

According to the team, the Miami Dolphins have signed former Miami (OH) quarterback Brett Gabbert, the younger brother of veteran NFL QB Blaine Gabbert, to an undisclosed contract. Linebacker William Bradley-King was waived in a corresponding move. The 24-year-old spent six seasons with the RedHawks (53 starts), completing 58.5% of his passes for 10,814 yards, 80 touchdowns, and 30 interceptions. However, he never tossed for more than 3,000 yards or 26 passing TDs in a single season. Although he was with the school for an extended period, three campaigns consisted of eight games or fewer due to COVID-19 and injuries (leg, shoulder). Gabbert is set to compete with fellow rookie signal-caller Quinn Ewers and recently acquired free agent quarterback Zach Wilson for the opportunity to back up incumbent starter Tua Tagovailoa

De'Von Achane, De'Von Achane in Line to See Even More Work in 2025

NFL Network's Cameron Wolfe says that Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane could be in line for even more of a workhorse role on offense in 2025 after proving to be one of the most explosive playmakers at the position in his first two years in the league. Achane has an opportunity to be Miami's clear RB1 after veteran Raheem Mostert joined the Las Vegas Raiders in free agency this offseason. He's been clear about his goals moving forward, too, stating that he thinks he can be a 1,000-yard rusher and a 500-yard receiver. Achane was already a top-10 RBI in PPR scoring in 2024 with 907 rushing yards and six rushing touchdowns and 78 receptions, 592 receiving yards and six receiving TDs. There are questions about whether the 5-foot-9, 188-pounder can handle that big of a workload, but Miami's coaching staff isn't worried. Achane's fantasy arrow is pointing upward as a strong RB1.
