The Miami Dolphins are surprisingly involved in the Jadeveon Clowney trade saga. However, they don't want to give up star left tackle Laremy Tunsil in order to get the star pass-rusher.

In a move that probably blindsided some Texans fans, their pass rusher seems to be forcing his way out of Texas. Brian Flores and the Dolphins coaching staff suddenly have a shot in getting a talented defensive end.

 

Houston needs a boost on their O-line, and the Ole Miss stalwart is a great answer to their problems. The 24-year-old established himself as a regular starter for the Dolphins in his three seasons at the Hard Rock Stadium. To lose him would mean leaving their quarterbacks more vulnerable to rushes.

It's understandable why they are hesitant to let Tunsil go. After all, they want to give Rosen time to develop, and a solid offensive line helps to make that happen.

However, it's been reported at the official NFL website that Flores and his staff have secured a meeting with Clowney. They already have one foot at the door, and letting him walk to other teams would be a missed opportunity.

Moreover, it's hard to resist getting a three-time Pro Bowler in Clowney. He is one of the best pass rushers in the league with his 21 QB hits over the past two years. He has also scored two fumble recovery touchdowns in his past two seasons. He will be a great addition to the team.

Miami fans all over are probably shouting at their phones, begging for Flores to make the trade happen. It will be interesting to see whether they push through with this costly trade or they make another move to get their man.
