The 2025 NFL Draft has come and gone, and Jalen Ramsey remains a Miami Dolphin. With several possible landing spots for the veteran corner still available, a reunion with the Los Angeles Rams isn't off the table.
During an interview with Adam Schein of SiriusXM’s Mad Dog Sports Radio last week, McVay was asked about the possibility of once again trading for the star corner.
"There's not too much of an update," McVay said, via Rams Wire. "He is a total stud, and you look at, obviously he has continued to play at a really high level. He and I have kept in great touch even since we ended up trading him to Miami. Special competitor, great person, great father.
"There are a lot of layers when you're talking about a player of his caliber with regards to the contract, the compensation that they would be looking for in exchange for receiving a player of his magnitude. And so those conversations are ongoing, as I'm sure they are with multiple teams. And we'll see, but we're never going to shy away from opportunities to increase the competitiveness of our roster or add great players as long as it fits within the framework of everything that an acquisition like that would entail."
Since the Dolphins and Ramsey agreed to search for a new home for the corner, the Rams have been a logical destination. Neither general manager Les Snead nor McVay has closed the door. It's not a glaring need for L.A.. Still, Ramsey would certainly bring championship experience and upgrade a crew headlined by veterans Darious Williams, Ahkello Witherspoon, nickel Quentin Lake, Cobie Durant and others. L.A. didn't use a pick on a corner during the 2025 NFL Draft.
With the draft in the rearview mirror, there is little rush to get a deal done at this stage -- waiting until after June 1 would allow Miami to split some of the cap hit. The big question in moving Ramsey will be how much money the Dolphins will have to eat in a deal and what the draft compensation will look like.
