Report: Dolphins GM, Flores against trading up for Burrow

The Miami Dolphins aren't prepared to go all-in for Joe Burrow.

Dolphins general manager Chris Grier and head coach Brian Flores "are very much against trading the farm" to the Cincinnati Bengals for the Heisman-winning quarterback despite a desire to do so from others within the organization, reports Peter King of NBC Sports.

Burrow has been widely penciled in as the Bengals' No. 1 overall selection in the 2020 NFL Draft ever since he led LSU to a national championship to cap off a historic senior campaign.

However, there have been rumblings the Dolphins - who own three first-round selections, including No. 5 overall - are interested in acquiring the Bengals' top pick. Dolphins owner Stephen Ross is reportedly a fan of Burrow, though King doesn't expect him to force his football staff into trading up.

While Miami isn't eyeing a move for Burrow, it is considered one of the most likely potential landing spots for one of the two other top quarterback prospects, Tua Tagovailoa and Justin Herbert.

It was reported in February the Dolphins don't view Tagovailoa as a "slam dunk" near the top of the draft, while their opinion of Herbert has become "increasingly positive."
