Maryland coach raves about pair of Dolphins draft picks
Maryland coach raves about pair of Dolphins draft picks The Miami Dolphins drafted a pair of Maryland Terrapins in the fifth round of the 2025 NFL draft this past April. According to Maryland head coach Mike Locksley, the Dolphins got a pair of tremendous leaders in safety Dante Trader Jr. and defensive lineman Jordan Phillips. "Here in our program we really do encourage our players to learn to be pros as quickly as they can," Locksley told Travis Wingfield on the Dolphins' "Drive Time" podcast. "We define being a professional as, it's 24/7 as opposed to a job, which is eight hours, nine to five, whatever that eight-hour window is." Locksley continued, "Both those guys were 24/7 guys you know from a recovery standpoint, understanding the way to take care of their bodies, proper sleep, morning routines, you know, with guys like Dante and Jordan they both were early risers, that studied the game." Trader, who was even more recruited in the college ranks for his lacrosse skills, has the "it" factor that a defense needs, according to Locksley. "There's no doubt [about] Dante and his aptitude and his football intelligence," Locksley said. "He was a guy that, if you can teach it, then you can execute it. And he's one of those guys that I see all the time grabbing the young safeties, the young corners and imparting the wisdom that he gained from not just his successes but failures as well as a young player." Phillips has multi-sport experience too. The defensive lineman was a wrestler and Locksley says that background makes a difference on the football field. 'Because of wrestling, he understood body-under-body, pad-under-pad, and that's how you eat up double teams, that's how you maintain the line of scrimmage the low man typically wins,' Locksley told Wingfield. "He did his job in our system, and I know coming into this draft some of the knock on him was the lack of production, because what we asked him to do was eat up double teams powerfully, and knock the line back, and it affected the run game quite a bit. "They don't get a credit for that production because it doesn't have a tackle, doesn't say TFL [tackle for loss], but when other people are making TFLs because he's pushed the 'A-gap' three yards deep, people that know football understand what that brings to the table." Safety and defensive line are positions where a rookie could potentially see significant snaps for the Dolphins. Miami has several safeties who will battle for the top two spots on the depth chart. The defensive line was an area of major concern heading into the draft, and Phillips was one of three rookie defensive linemen selected among the Dolphins' eight total selections. With a thin room behind veteran Zach Sieler, Phillips and his draft classmates on the line will be thrown into the fire early. While Phillips and Trader Jr. were Day 3 picks, their collegiate coach is convinced both former Terrapins will make an early impact for the Dolphins. "It couldn't have been to a better organization for both those guys, and I think it's a great fit," Locksley said.

Social media reacts to report of Dolphins' Jonnu Smith trade talks
Social media reacts to report of Dolphins' Jonnu Smith trade talks The Dolphins have had trade discussions with the Pittsburgh Steelers about their lone Pro-Bowl selection last season, tight end Jonnu Smith, per league sources. Those talks came after Smith expressed an interest in reworking his deal that is scheduled to pay him $4.8 million this… — Adam Schefter (@AdamSchefter) May 29, 2025 Most of the drama surrounding the Miami Dolphins this month has revolved around the impending trade of Jalen Ramsey, but ESPN's Adam Schefter sent waves throughout social media on Thursday. Schefter reported that the Dolphins have spoken with the Pittsburgh Steelers as potential trade partners for tight end Jonnu Smith. Schefter explained that Smith had expressed interest in a reworked deal in the final year of his two-year contract he signed with the Dolphins last offseason. However, the report also indicated that Smith would prefer to stay in Miami under a potentially reworked deal. Last season, Smith broke the three major positional franchise records for tight ends in receptions (88), receiving yardage (884), as well as touchdowns (8) and has become a fan favorite and team leader. Here's a sampling of the reaction to the news Thursday: IMO: Jonnu Smith is basically gone from the Miami Dolphins. There's no way to come back from the leak about a trade with the Steelers. Once the toothpaste is out of the tube there's no way to put it back in. — Fins Sammy (@FinsSammy) May 29, 2025 Tua 🤝 Jonnu Smith📈 Miami might want to keep this duo intact. Last season: 82% comp rate (highest QB-TE duo) 124.1 passer rating, 5 TDs, 0 INTs 44.8 EPA (team lead, 4th among QB-TE duos) Jonnu should be extended rather than traded. 🤞🏾🔥 — LaQuan Jones (@RealDealFantasy) May 29, 2025 • Jalen Ramsey - traded. • Jonnu Smith - traded. • Raheem Mostert - cut. • Jevon Holland - gone. • Calais Campbell - gone. • Tyreek Hill - STAYS. Chris Grier has no idea what he's doing. — #1 FIN Fan 🐬 (@EliteMarino) May 29, 2025 Jonnu Smith was arguably the most underrated tight end in football last season 👀 88 receptions 884 yards 8 TDs A legit weapon. — DraftKings Network (@DKNetwork) May 29, 2025 • 4th in NFL receiving yards among TEs last season •Tied 2nd in TDs by a TE •Scored 48 points — more than Waddle or Hill •Set Dolphins TE single-season franchise record: 88 catches, 884 yards, 8 TDs But yeah, let's trade him. 🤦🏻♀️ — Marisa Marino (@mustbemarisa87) May 29, 2025 Jonnu Smith was the Dolphins' No. 1 target down the stretch last season— it would be a major step back if Miami doesn't retain him — Marcel Louis-Jacques (@Marcel_LJ) May 29, 2025 Passing on Tyler Warren (and not drafting any other TE) only to (potentially) trade Jonnu Smith (our 5th ranked TE last year) would be classic Dolphins FWIW, Julian Hill was the our lowest graded TE in the NFL last year at 37.2 overall#GoPhins — Ryan Smith (@PFF_RyanSmith) May 29, 2025 Jonnu Smith is a great dude It's one thing when malcontents are unhappy but this one may sting even more in Miami Gardens Hopefully they just work new deal — Joe Schad (@schadjoe) May 29, 2025 There is no reason for the Dolphins to trade Jonnu Smith if he wants to stay in Miami — Jake (@FinsCentral) May 29, 2025 Pittsburgh Steelers barely have 5 Wr's but want 7 TE' Jonnu Smith is not the play — Steelers Report (@SteelersReport7) May 29, 2025

Mike McDaniel: Tyreek Hill is going above and beyond while recovering from wrist surgery
Despite talk as last season came to an end that Tyreek Hill was unhappy in Miami, Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel says Hill has done everything asked of him and more in the offseason. McDaniel said at the Dolphins' Organized Team Activities that Hill timed his wrist surgery so that he'd be ready to return when the Dolphins need him, and that Hill is doing everything he can during voluntary practices now, even though his wrist isn't fully healed. 'Tyreek's done a great job of being proactive with when he got the surgery done and making sure he is able to do as much as he can with the team, which has very much included his daily participation in how he attacks all of our strength program,' McDaniel said. McDaniel said Hill is running routes in practice but that the Dolphins are holding off on having him catch passes until there are no concerns about his wrist or his ability to fully use his hand. 'Then he'll start catching the ball,' McDaniel said. 'But he's been participating above and beyond. Whatever he can do, he has been doing.' For much of his career, Hill has been among the NFL's best wide receivers, and a year ago his fellow players voted him the single best player in the NFL in a poll conducted for NFL Media. But his injury-plagued 2024 season was a disappointment. McDaniel knows nothing is more important to his team in 2025 than getting Hill back on track.

Tyreek Hill: 'I've got to prove myself' to Dolphins after last season's frustrations
MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — Tyreek Hill isn't expecting his Miami Dolphins teammates to vote him team captain again. Not after how last season ended — when the veteran wide receiver took himself out of the Dolphins' regular-season finale against the New York Jets with no reported injury and hinted at wanting out of Miami afterward. Hill has since diminished those actions as more frustration with a poor season than any serious desire to play elsewhere. Entering his fourth season in Miami, he's aiming to show the Dolphins that he's still a leader they can depend on. 'I've got to prove myself,' Hill said after Wednesday's session of organized team activities. 'This OTAs, training camp, I got to prove myself. I've got to show up different. The mindset's got to be different." Hill added he doesn't feel as if he deserves being selected team captain — he's been one each of his previous three years — but 'if I didn't get it, I wouldn't dwell on it. I wouldn't sweat it ... because I put myself in that position.' Hill has spent the offseason recovering from two wrist procedures. His right wrist was heavily taped Wednesday — the one he had surgery on earlier this year to repair ligament damage after playing through the injury the entire 2024 season. Hill did not participate in 7-on-7 drills during Miami's first OTA practice that was open to reporters, but he did some individual work on the practice field and cheered on teammates during drills. Afterward, he said he's in a 'better spot' than he was last season and was feeling zero pain. He's expected to resume catching passes by training camp. 'Tyreek's done a great job of being proactive of when he got the surgery done,' coach Mike McDaniel said Wednesday, 'and then making sure that he is able to do as much as he can with the team, which has very much included his daily participation in how he attacks all of our strength program. ... As we train his way back into recovery of that hand, then he'll start catching the ball.' Hill was noticeably leaner when he spoke on Wednesday. He said he weighs 183 pounds now, down from around 197 when he first got to Miami. 'Obviously I can run with anybody, run by anybody,' Hill said. 'But I think having that endurance, having that ability to not get tired from third downs is very important. So I wanted to slim down and actually lose body fat.' He repeated his goal of reaching 2,000 yards receiving, something he came close to in 2023 but wasn't able to achieve. Hill led the NFL with 1,799 yards receiving that season for Miami. His 112.4 yards per game and 13 receiving touchdowns also led the NFL. He came nowhere near replicating those numbers in 2024, finishing the season with 959 yards — his fewest since the 2019 season with Kansas City. And Miami's offense took a step back in part because injuries sidelined starting quarterback Tua Tagovailoa throughout the season. He's remained in headlines for different reasons since then, whether for chatter that he plans to race Olympian Noah Lyles, or recently because of a domestic dispute with his wife, who has since filed for divorce. Hill said he's used therapy and church to cope with the drama of the past few months, while trying to put the frustrations of last season behind him. 'It's tough, man, but at the same time, I've got to understand what I'm trying to accomplish and what this team is trying to accomplish, too," Hill said. "Because I want to be a part of something special. I want to win.' The Dolphins are still pursuing trade options for All-Pro cornerback Jalen Ramsey after both sides agreed to part ways. Beyond that, McDaniel has little interest in discussing the details of what went wrong. 'Quite honestly. Zero has changed since the last time I said anything about him,' McDaniel said Wednesday. 'I'm very much interested in the players that I'm coaching on the field today.' Ramsey is due approximately $24 million in guaranteed money in 2025. The Dolphins would be in a better financial position if they wait until after June 1 to trade him, as it would clear about $10 million in cap space. Ramsey was not seen at OTAs on Wednesday, and the Dolphins aren't spending much time talking about his potential departure. 'Jalen's my dog, but we're kind of focused on the guys in the room right now," cornerback Kader Kohou said. "We don't talk about Jalen, we let the upstairs handle that situation.' /hub/nfl
