The Miami Dolphins made another bold move this week with their trade for Bradley Chubb, the second time this year they traded a first-round draft pick to acquire a high-profile veteran.Yes, it's a steep price to pay for a quality player, but Dolphins history has Jordan Poole Jersey shown the organization has been rewarded to that kind of bold move Chubb became the seventh veteran the Dolphins have acquired in a trade through the years where the price included at least one first-round pick, as we examine in our latest Dolphins history le son.The Dolphins made sure this wasn't a rental, signing Chubb to a five-year contract extension two days after the trade. We'll start seeing how the trade works out when Chubb makes his Miami debut against Chicago on Sunday.As with Chubb, the Dolphins quickly signed Hill to a Eric Paschall Jersey huge contract extension and it's difficult to imagine how much more Hill could be doing on the field and in terms of leadership in his first season in Miami.---------------------------------------------------------------------------Scroll to Continue---------------------------------------------------------------------------This one is a bit more complicated because of the detours Williams' Dolphins career, but he was sensational in his first year in Miami when he led the NFL with 1,853 rushing yards and, though not quite as spectacular, his second season of 1,372 still ranks as the second-best in team history. Williams also played a big role in the team's last AFC East title in 2008.Like Chubb, Green was a top 10 pick and he had made two Pro Bowls in his first four seasons in Tampa Bay before he arrived in Miami. Green ended up playing Mychal Mulder Jersey 82 games in six-plus seasons with Miami, but he never was an impact player for a Dolphins that had some tough years in the late 1980s.This one worked out great for the Dolphins, but only for one year. Williams set a franchise record (which lasted until Ricky Williams broke it 24 years later) with 1,258 rushing yards. Williams wasn't nearly as effective the following two seasons before he ended his career in Green Bay in 1981. Solomon, meanwhile, started 97 games in eight years for the 49ers and Jeremy Lin Jersey led the team in touchdown catches in 1981 when they won their first Super Bowl title.Briscoe became a good complementary player for the Dolphins' run-oriented offenses in their Super Bowl years, though a first-round pick was a steep price to get him. Briscoe did start every game in 1973 when the Dolphins repeated as Super Bowl champs, catching 30 pa ses for 447 yards and two touchdows.The first-round pick the Dolphins gave up in that deal was the third overall the Browns used it on QB Mike Phipps but there is zero complaining about this trade. Warfield had Andrew Bogut Jersey been a star in Cleveland in his six years there, and he was among the best deep threats for the Dolphins, coming up with big plays when they were needed. In five seasons in Miami before he left to sign with the World Football League, Warfield averaged an eye-opening 21.5 yards per catch and had seasons with 11 touchdown catches in both 1971 and 1973.
