The Atlanta Falcons and Miami Dolphins will go into the 2024 season with expectations of reaching the playoffs. The Dolphins still feel they have one of the mot electric offenses in the league. The Falcons just acquired Kirk Cousins and have put numerous weapons around him.
However, one report suggests that the two teams will be in business in the very near future.
The Miami Dolphins And Atlanta Falcons Will Commit To Massive Trade According To Journalist

According to Marissa Myers of TWSN:
With the NFL offseason comes predictions and bold takes. That specifically happens with trades that could happen before the season or the deadline.
With that in mind, Kyle Pitts becomes an intriguing trade option, and if he is traded, it will be to the Miami Dolphins.
When being drafted out of the 2021 NFL Draft, Kyle Pitts entered the NFL with high expectations after going top five to the Atlanta Falcons. Since being drafted by the Falcons, he hasn’t necessarily lived up to those expectations. Over the last three seasons, Pitts has a total of 2,049 yards and six touchdowns over 14 receptions, averaging 13.8 yards per reception. Granted, the Falcons heavy run scheme under Arthur Smith limited the potential Pitts could have.
While that could change under Raheem Morris and Zac Robinson, if the Falcons are in a spot where they are falling below expectations, it would be in their best interest to acquire draft capital early on in their regime to construct the team they want in the best way.
Pitts is a great talent with his elite receiving ability that allows him to play out wide as a receiver as well, but he is the best player on the Falcons that would lead to high value. Which is where the Dolphins come into play. They already have a great receiver duo in Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle, but with Tua Tagovailoa entering a pivotal season as well as the Dolphins as a whole they need to maximize the offense the most they can.
If either Hill or Waddle misses time, their receiver depth isn’t fantastic, and their tight end position needs work. While Mike McDaniel didn’t necessarily utilize Mike Gesicki the best in 2022, the tight end position needs to be a focal point going forward.
The Dolphins are a team in contention and if they fall short of expectations would need to consider changes. To help them on offense, they need a receiver with the talent of Pitts to be utilized all over the field and be another go-to option for Tagovailoa in high-pressure situations.
It would be particularly shocking to see the Falcons move on from Pitts. He has the ability to be a center piece to any offense at the tight end position. Tight Ends of that caliber don’t grow on trees.
That being said, a player of that caliber could fetch multiple premium draft picks in a trade. If the Dolphins feel they are just one or two pieces away from being Super Bowl contenders, they could offer a trade package that is too good to refuse.
Either way, Pitts’ future in Atlanta will be a story line to watch in the very near future.
