Buffalo Bills made shocking offer for Miami Dolphins star Jaylen Waddle
The Miami Dolphins rejected Buffalo Bills' offer of a 2026 third-round and 2027 first-round pick for Jaylen Waddle, aiming to build long-term AFC East competitiveness.
- On Nov. 9, NFL Network insider Tom Pelissero reported the Bills' offer of a 2026 third-round pick and a 2027 first-rounder for Waddle was rejected, with Miami wanting a 2026 first-round pick, not 2027, Pelissero said.
- The Bills sought multiple upgrades, pursuing AFC East stars Jaylen Waddle and Quinnen Williams while Brandon Beane admitted, `we tried on quite a few` deals but got limited help.
- Waddle, Miami Dolphins top receiver, is on pace for another 1,000-yard season and under contract through 2028 with a $11 million salary-cap figure for 2026.
- Ahead of the Nov. 4 deadline, Miami made one trade and parted ways with general manager Chris Grier, while the Bills left the trade deadline without making a deal despite interest.
- In-Division trades being rare, flipping Waddle would have strengthened a divisional rival while Miami remains years away from competing in the AFC East.
