The Miami Dolphins and the Los Angeles Rams enter Week 4 of the 2024 NFL season with a 1-2 record. Miami feels like their season is spiraling out of control because of the injury to Tua Tagovailoa. As for Los Angeles, they have issues with injuries to star players, but Matthew Stafford is healthy.
If the Dolphins continue to slide, there is a chance that they could wind up with a Top 5 pick in the 2024 NFL Draft. As for the Rams, they still have a chance to get it together.
Bleacher Report Scouting Department Suggests That the Miami Dolphins Trade For Los Angeles Rams Quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo Before Week 4 Of the 2024 Season
The Bleacher Report Scouting Department has suggested one trade for each NFL team to do at this point of the 2024 NFL season. They think that the Miami Dolphins should trade for quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo from the Los Angeles Rams. Bleacher Report said:
“The Dolphins have placed Tua Tagovailoa on injured reserve, so the soonest he can play is Week 8. That said, Ian Rapoport of NFL Media reported that Tagovailoa is seeing concussion specialists and that there is no timeline for his return. Given his extensive history of concussions, that could mean any number of things.
In the meantime, the Dolphins are rolling with Skylar Thompson. It’s a risky strategy given his limited experience and the Dolphins’ opportunity to compete in the AFC East. Jimmy Garoppolo was just reinstated after serving a two-game suspension for violating the league’s performance-enhancing drug policy. His experience running a Kyle Shanahan offense could be invaluable even if he just ends up being the backup.”
Jimmy Garoppolo would be a massive upgrade for Miami’s offense immediately. He would be able to help Miami win games and get them back into contention because they have the Buffalo Bills and the New York Jets in the same division.
Tank For a 2025 Pick
If Miami chooses not to trade for a quarterback from either Los Angeles or another team this season, they may be going to tank for a top pick in the 2025 NFL Draft for a quarterback. It is possible that they could wind up Miami Hurricanes quarterback Cam Ward.
It is malpractice that Miami has not had better insurance for Tua Tagovailoa. They knew that he had concussion problems going back to last season.
