NFL Rumors: Dolphins Want to Trade for Lions' No. 3 Pick Without Giving Up No. 5
The Miami Dolphins could be aggressive in the first round of the 2020 NFL draft in an attempt to get two top-five picks.
According to Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald, the Dolphins are trying to trade up to the No. 3 spot—currently controlled by the Detroit Lions—without giving up its No. 5 pick.
Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported Miami wants to move up to take an offensive tackle.

The Dolphins currently hold 14 draft picks, including the Nos. 5, 18 and 26 selections in Thursday's first round.
Adding the No. 3 pick would likely be expensive, with Darin Gantt of ProFootballTalk noting a trade would likely feature at least the 18th and 26th overall picks as well as possibly the 39th overall pick.
The Lions have a lot of holes to fill after a 3-12-1 season and could use the additional picks to reload the roster.
Meanwhile, securing the third pick would give the Dolphins the opportunity to select their top offensive tackle, likely one of Georgia's Andrew Thomas, Iowa's Tristan Wirfs, Alabama's Jedrick Wills Jr. and Louisville's Mekhi Becton.
Per Jackson, Miami especially likes Wirfs and Thomas, as well as Georgia tackle Isaiah Wilson.
With the fifth pick, the Dolphins could then take their quarterback of the future, whether that is Alabama's Tua Tagovailoa or Oregon's Justin Herbert, giving the team two franchise cornerstones in one draft.
Assuming Joe Burrow and Chase Young go off the board with the first two picks as expected, the Dolphins could have a lot of options as they try to rebuild the team.
