The Eagles were close to acquiring Calvin Ridley from the Falcons. While the team has since added ex-Colts wideout Zach Pascal, the position still appears ...
A trade candidate in the past, Parker stabilized his career with a 1,202-yard, nine-touchdown season for an undermanned Dolphins team in 2019. Philly has used first-round picks on receivers in each of the past two years, and with three first-rounders in this draft, the team could reasonably extend that streak to three. Hill and Jaylen Waddle now lead Miami’s receiving corps, leaving Parker — a first-round pick in 2015, multiple regimes ago in Miami — with an uncertain role.
The acquisition of Tyreek Hill leaves little room for DeVante Parker in Miami's plans, and he provides something the Packers need.
In Green Bay, he could have a resurgence — with a quarterback who can deliver the ball down the field and in a role that should allow him to return to 100+ targets again, all while doing very little damage to the the Packers cap situation. The Dolphins offense was built around protecting Tua from his own weaknesses, as well as the putrid offensive line put in front of him, and they killed the very thing that DeVante Parker excels at: winning down the field. He’s been relegated to WR4 and is coming off of two rather disappointing years with a quarterback who cannot facilitate the type of offense he thrives in. While his yards-per-reception were only decent with Tua (12.6 and 12.9), with Fitzpatrick they soared to 16.7. In 2019, Parker’s yards-per-target ranked 16th amongst wide receivers and his adjusted-yards per route run ranked 14th. He has amassed 103 catches across the past two seasons, but on pretty middling efficiency with a catch-rate of just 58.5% and a yards-per-target of just 7.43. Neither 2020 nor 2021 are particularly glowing by DVOA either, as he was at -4.7% and 0% in those two years, respectively. It would leave a dead cap hit of $5.4M on Miami’s books (and save them $3.34M), while Green Bay would only be on the hook for a maximum of $6.25M this year. Green Bay would have the flexibility to kick some of that money to 2023 by converting some or all but the minimum of his base salary to 2023 as part of a re-structure, bringing his cap hit potentially as low as $3.985M. Green Bay could get more creative by adding a void year or working through some type of extension with Parker, although that would require his cooperation. According to PFF, Parker was targeted only nine times in 2021 beyond twenty yards. In the past two seasons, Tua has ranked 18th and 26th in DVOA. Combining the two seasons, he ranks 28th in EPA-per-dropback. Tua’s shortcomings are particularly damaging for DeVante Parker as his arm strength is virtually non-existent and the Dolphins ran one of the most conservative passing offenses you will ever see. Tyreek Hill was added to a team who already had spent meaningful resources at the wide receiver position. Wednesday morning brought another blockbuster transaction in this whirlwind of an NFL off-season as yet another contract dispute between a star receiver and his team led to a trade. These three additions leave a productive receiver as surplus to requirements though, and that receiver is DeVante Parker.

If he stays, Parker will be the third receiver along with Waddle and Hill, but Wilson also is a capable third receiver. The Dolphins have an abundance of riches at the wide receiver position. They drafted Jaylen Waddle in the first round last spring; they signed Cedrick Wilson in free agency; and they traded for Tyreek Hill.
On the day the Eagles introduced hybrid edge rusher Haason Reddick last week to the media, they released DT Fletcher Cox about a half-hour after the news ...
Reasonable Contract. Parker is signed through 2023, but it’s an easy deal to get out from under. Veteran experience. History. The Dolphins have a history of trading with the Eagles. There was last year’s deal that landed Philadelphia the Dolphins’ first-round pick and the one in 2016 that shipped Byron Maxwell and Kiko Alonso to South Florida, the first of two trades that allowed the Eagles’ move all the way up to the No. 2 spot to take Carson Wentz. His cap charge this season is $8.7, a number the Eagles can afford with about $23M to spend under the cap and accounting for about $10-13M to sign 10 draft picks, including three first-rounders. About 48 hours later, they brought back Cox. On the day the team introduced WR Zach Pascal on Thursday, a week after Reddick sat at the podium inside the auditorium at the Eagles’ NovaCare Complex, a report emerged just a couple hours after the Pascal presser wrapped that they are interested in trading for Miami Dolphins WR DeVante Parker.
The Eagles added free agent wide receiver Zach Pascal earlier this week in free agency and might be looking to add another pass catcher.
His best season came in 2019, when he caught 72 passes for 1,202 yards and nine acores showing his potential, as the No. 14 overall pick in 2015. Most Eagles fans would remember Parker for his seven grabs for 159 yards and two scores in their 2019 game against Miami. Eagles Among Teams Interested in DeVante Parker
The Tennessee Titans have already shown that they aren't afraid to trade for a veteran wide receiver, so why not do it again?
While the expectation is that it has to be a receiver, this deal would lock up Woods and Parker for the next two seasons and A. J. Brown isn’t going anywhere. For reference, the only other time in his career where he had more than 7.7 yards per target was in 2019, so that is a large enough sample size to see the connection. Joining a team like the Titans that already has three real receiving threats (A. J. Brown, Woods, and Austin Hooper) as well as a Hall of Fame running back, must be appealing. Parker is less consistent, but he costs half as much with cap hits of less than $7 million in each of the next two seasons. Both players are only on the trade block because the team decided to chase a potential WR1 in Tyreek Hill and Allen Robinson respectively. By the time the Tennessee Titans officially traded for Woods, he only counted $10 million against the cap compared to the $16 million that people originally assumed.
The Eagles, meanwhile, still have a need at wide receiver, especially for a bigger outside threat. Parker, 29, is a former first-round pick out of Louisville by ...
Miami later signed Parker to a two-year contract worth up to $13 million with incentives in 2019. It would save some cap space for Miami to trade him. Parker, 29, is a former first-round pick out of Louisville by the Dolphins in the 2015 NFL Draft. He played out the final year of a four-year, $10.876 million rookie contract when the Dolphins picked up his fifth-year option.
The Indianapolis Colts could have a new receiver target in DeVante Parker after the recent blockbuster moves around the NFL.
Parker is an upgrade over every current receiver on Indy’s roster not named Pittman and that alone should have the Colts interested. Those were all career highs and the only year that Parker played every game of a season. One position the team hasn’t addressed is wide receiver.
After the Miami Dolphins traded for Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill, DeVante Parker could be available for the Philadelphia Eagles.
After losing out on the opportunity to trade for Atlanta Falcons wide receiver Calvin Ridley because of Ridley’s suspension for gambling, the Eagles may have to go back to the trade market and send one of their 10 draft picks to the dolphins to get him. Parker would also not be a rental, being that he still has two years remaining on his deal, according to Over The Cap, accounting for $8.74 million against the salary cap in 2022 and $9 million in 2023.Eagles general manager Howie Roseman and Dolphins general manager Chris Grier appear to have a good working relationship. That leaves the most likely scenario being wide receiver DeVante Parker heading to the trade block.In 10 games last season, Parker caught 40 passes for 515 yards and two touchdowns. Either way, Roseman should get on the phone with Grier and work out the final details to bring a legitimate veteran No. 2 receiver to the Eagles offense.Thank you for relying on us to provide the journalism you can trust. Could the wide receiver carousel end with the Eagles getting DeVante Parker?Miami Dolphins wide receiver DeVante Parker could be available for the Eagles to acquire via trade.(AP Photo/Wilfredo Lee)There has been a lot made about the so-called quarterback carousel spinning around the NFL this season. Parker missed seven games last because of a lingering hamstring issue, forcing him to go on injured reserve and having some of the lowest numbers of his seven seasons in the league. Although the trade did not involve the Eagles, there is a chance that they could benefit from the deal and finally obtain a wide receiver they hope will improve a passing attack that was ranked 25th in the league last season (200.2 yards a game).The Dolphins have an excess of wide receivers. Trying to go the free agency route, the Eagles found it tough to add a receiver because teams like the Jacksonville Jaguars spent heavily on the free-agent wide receivers on the market, pricing the Eagles out of any player who could make a significant difference to the offense.At 6-feet, 3-inches, and 215 pounds, Parker can act as a big-bodied complementary veteran piece next to DeVonta Smith and Quez Watkins. The Eagles currently do not have many receivers of that size, with J.J. Arcega-Whiteside being the only player close to Parker. Parker would give the Eagles another player who could go up for contested catches and have a legitimate shot at bringing them down. In fact, Parker has only played an entire season just once in his career.Injury history aside, Parker may be the best receiver they have a chance to acquire who could be available. The Dolphins believed he was one of their best options in the passing game, choosing to target him more than 100 times in two of the past three seasons.The biggest concern surrounding Parker is his injury history. The latest example happened Wednesday after the Kansas City Chiefs sent wide receiver Tyreek Hill to the Miami Dolphins for a package of draft picks, including a first-round selection.

MIAMI GARDENS, FL – SEPTEMBER 19: Miami Dolphins wide receiver DeVante Parker (11) goes up for a catch during the NFL Football match between the Miami ...
As long as the Eagles have a need at wide receiver, every big FA on the open market will be getting interest from the team. Still, as he enters 29 this season, the talent is certainly there for a team to take a flier on him. His best season came in 2019 when he caught over 70 passes for over 1,200 yards and nine touchdowns.
GREEN BAY, Wis. – Good-bye, Davante. Hello, DeVante? With Thursday's trade for Tyreek Hill, the Miami Dolphins have an abundance of talent at receiver.
“Launching my own cartoon series has been a lot of fun, and I have enjoyed seeing the characters come to life. He’d be a bargain compared to who’s available in free agency, though the Packers might have to surrender a Day 2 pick to make it happen. For sake of comparison, Valdes-Scantling caught 6-of-22 (27.3 percent). During his career season of 2019, Parker caught 14-of-29 deep balls (48.3 percent) with five touchdowns. The 14th overall pick in 2015, Parker has career totals of 338 receptions for 4,727 yards (14.0 average) and 24 touchdowns. In 2019, he had 72 receptions for 1,202 yards (16.7 average) and nine touchdowns. Rodgers no doubt would love another veteran in the passing game to ease the learning curve for any draft pick(s).
The Eagles recently brought in former Colts receiver Zach Pascal to be their first real veteran wideout in years. The position is still pretty darn thin, ...
If he can be had for a mid-round pick, he could slot in as a Y receiver opposite DeVonta Smith and would be a needed goal line target for Jalen Hurts. His acquisition would in theory move Quez Watkins to the slot, and put Pascal and/or Reagor in the No. 4 spot — which is probably appropriate. Is a trade for a receiver in the works? Last season in eight starts, Parker had 515 receiving yards and a pair of touchdowns.
The Miami Dolphins just upgraded their wide receiver room in a big way with the acquisition of Tyreek Hill from the Kansas City Chiefs.
It seems like the Dolphins will be able to trade Parker instead of just releasing him, but they likely won’’t get much in return. There is interest in Parker though, as the Philadelphia Eagles and others have shown interest, per Miami Herlad’s Barry Jackson. The Eagles are always looking for receiver help, but also have three first round picks this season they could use on pass catchers.
Even after adding DJ Chark, the Detroit Lion should absolutely be in the mix to trade for Dolphins wide receiver DeVante Parker.
With that in mind, the Lions should be readying their offer. Parker has two years left on his contract, with an $8.74 million cap hit this year and a $9 million cap hit in 2023. And right on que, according to Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald, Parker is drawing trade interest.
The Miami Dolphins were the latest team to shake the AFC to its core by striking a blockbuster with the Kansas City Chiefs to land wideout Tyreek Hill.
The Louisville product has spent his entire career with Miami to this point after he was selected with the No. 14 overall selection in the 2015 NFL Draft. While he does have a 1,200-yard season on his résumé, he hasn't truly lived up to that first-round billing, averaging about 675 yards a season. Jackson does note that it is unclear what the Dolphins plan to do with Parker at the moment. Several teams have shown interest in Dolphins veteran receiver DeVante Parker, according to Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald. Among those interested clubs, Jackson reports, is the Philadelphia Eagles.
