The Dolphins have agreed to trade defensive end Charles Harris to the Falcons (Twitter link via Jason Butt of The Athletic). In exchange, Atlanta will send a 2021 seventh-round pick to Miami, Tom Pelissero of NFL.com tweets.

The Dolphins have been doing some spring cleaning with former first-round picks this week. On Thursday, they released defensive lineman Taco Charlton. Today, they’re moving on from Harris, who was the No. 22 overall pick in the 2017 draft.
The 6’3″ edge rusher impressed in his final two seasons at Missouri, combining for 30.5 tackles for loss and 16 sacks. Unfortunately, he wasn’t able to keep up the good work at the pro level. In three years, Harris has just 3.5 sacks to his credit. He’s also made just eight starts in his 41 games.
Now, with reduced expectations, he’ll try to get his career back on track with the Falcons. He’ll provide support behind Dante Fowler Jr., the former No. 3 overall pick who broke out just in the nick of time to find free agent riches. Harris, still only 25, is under contract for just $1.94M this season.
Without Harris, the Dolphins will forge ahead with Shaq Lawson and Emmanuel Ogbah as their top bookends. Ogbah inked a two-year, $15MM deal to take his talents to South Beach in March. Lawson, who notched a career-high 6.5 sacks with the Bills last year, agreed to a three-year, $30MM free agent contract.
The good news is the Dolphins can acquire talent. The bad news is they like to give it away to other teams at the drop of a hat.
Just like my wife! Yeeeeesh!!!! *tugs at collar*

Hey oooooooooo!!!!

Charles Harris was not a good player so your point does not apply here. Harris was given plenty of opportunities to prove that he could be the player the Dolphins had hoped he would be when they drafted him. While Harris appeared to be a hard worker he never did much on the field. Getting anything for him was a good move. Most expected him to be cut. Another of your negative comments about the team noted.
The Falcons defense is so bad that even a decent season for Harris would be good for them.
Should’ve never drafted him. Missouri guys are awful.
tmc_31 that was very insightful. I would also like to get your take on the following:
The transgendered of Florida
The women of upstate New York
The twinks of Mississippi
And finally The Boys and Girls Club of America.
