The Miami Dolphins are navigating through the NFL offseason with several roster needs post-draft. The potential trade of Jalen Ramsey has prompted discussions about bolstering their cornerback lineup, with Asante Samuel Jr. emerging as a target. Despite a mixed performance last season, Samuel, only 25, significantly improved his coverage metrics in 2023. Given the Dolphins’ current cornerback situation, with Jason Marshall Jr. and others vying for roles, signing Samuel could be a strategic move.

Adding Samuel would not only provide youth and talent but also fit the Dolphins' rebuilding strategy without incurring excessive costs. His prior second-round selection by the Los Angeles Chargers indicates a pedigree that, combined with his recent performance uptick, could make him a worthwhile investment for Miami.
