"I think the Miami Dolphins will move at least one of their pass rushers — Jaelan Phillips or Bradley Chubb." — ESPN's Adam Schefter on the looming trade deadline actionWe're less than one week away and the Dolphins will have a jump start on a majority of the league on knowing exactly where their football team stands after Week 9 — Miami plays tomorrow night against the Ravens and then will be free all weekend to field any possible calls. A lot of the insider language is coded, they know more than they say outright and part of the insider game is leveraging that knowledge to be able to talk from a place of insight without saying 'too much' given these things aren't official until they're actually official. That makes Schefter's continued belief that "at least" one pass rusher is going to move seem quite ominous for outcome. Or exciting. It depends on your perspective of if you'd like either player to stay in Miami. Dolphins' franchise active sack leaders in Miami DT Zach Sieler - 30.0 sacks EDGE Jaelan Phillips - 25.0 sacks EDGE Bradley Chubb - 17.5 sacks EDGE Chop Robinson - 7.0 sacks LB Jordyn Brooks - 5.5 sacks Chubb appears destined to be a cap casualty if he's not moved after the season, whereas Phillips could be a long-term piece of the puzzle but Miami would need to find a good contract value for an extension. So how likely is this to happen? One of the other predictions Schefter cooked up on this segment has already happened — that being the Patriots trading Kyle Dugger. That trade was finalized last night with the Pittsburgh Steelers. So the wheels of the deadline are moving. And it appears as though Schefter believes at least one Dolphin is going to be headed out when it is all said and done. window.addEventListener('message', function (event) {if (event.data.totalpoll && event.data.totalpoll.action === 'resizeHeight') {document.querySelector('#totalpoll-iframe-426').height = event.data.totalpoll.value;}}, false);document.querySelector('#totalpoll-iframe-426').contentWindow.postMessage({totalpoll: {action: 'requestHeight'}}, '*')
