It's March 19th for the NFL. Let's get into it. The Miami Dolphins made waves this week by trading wide receiver Jalen Waddle to the Denver Broncos. In return, they got the 30th overall pick, a third rounder and a fourth rounder, while sending their own fourth round pick back. This leaves their wide receiver group, short on star power, heading into the 2026 NFL draft. Earlier this month, on March 12th, the Dolphins hosted Southern California wide receiver Mackay Limon for a top 30 visit at USC's Pro Day. At the time, it seemed like a long shot since Miami picks 11th overall, but after the trade, grabbing Limon there now looks very possible. Limon had a standout college career over three seasons with the Trojans from 2023 to 2025. He racked up 137 catches for 2008 yards and 14 touchdowns. Last year alone, he had 79 receptions, 1,156 yards, and 11 scores, earning the Byletna

Cough Award as the nation's top wide out. His personality drew some criticism during combine interviews, but that hasn't scared off teens. He's lined up top 30 visits with contenders like the Washington commanders at pick 7, Cleveland Browns at 6, and Tennessee Titans at 4. With new executive, John Eric Sullivan pushing from his Packers background, the Dolphins might go big early to arm quarterback Malik Willis. We'll know soon as the draft starts in Pittsburgh in just over a month. The Daily News Now is presented by our sponsor, LinkedIn the description.
