With the trade of Miami Dolphins star wideout Jaylen Waddle to the Denver Broncos, the rumors quickly moved to the idea that De\u2019Von Achane would clearly be the next up to be shipped off for more draft picks in 2026. This was quickly shot down in a report from ESPN\u2019s Adam Shefter (highlighted in Sumeet Jena\u2019s post<\/a>) that the Dolphins, despite fielding interest from other teams, had told them that he was not available in \u201cany capacity.\u201d While I can see the clear reason to keep the team\u2019s best player on offense, there are also multiple reasons to move him at this point.<\/p>\n

I will begin by saying that I love Achane on this team and personally hope he remains a Dolphin for a good long time. I also understand that this team is in full rebuild mode, and Achane may be a shell of his former self by the time they manage to turn this thing around. Additionally, Achane is entering the final season of his deal with the Dolphins and will likely want an extension from the team before stepping back onto the field. If you consider Achane a top-5 back, the average for the top five paid backs in the NFL is currently $16,648,600 per season. I would think that De\u2019Von is going to be looking to make at least that amount if not exceed it.<\/p>\n

So tonight\u2019s Phinsider Question Of The Day is:<\/p>\n

Do you think the Miami Dolphins are being sincere in signaling that De\u2019Von Achane is not a tradable piece of the roster, or do you believe that they are just attempting to drive up his trade value? Beyond that, do you believe that the team should keep Achane and give him an extension beyond the 2026 season, or do you believe that they should attempt to trade him for more picks in the 2026 NFL draft, knowing that they need multiple players to rebuild this team from the ground up?<\/p>\n
