Dolphins Trade Dannell Ellerbe for Kenny Stills

The Dolphins and the Saints swapped players: the Dolphins get WR Kenny Stills, and the Saints get LB Dannell Ellerbe and a 2015 third-round draft pick. The Dolphins were going to cut Ellerbe anyway, and they get Stills who is still playing out his rookie contract, meaning he comes cheap. The team saves $5.65 million against the cap by moving Ellerbe. Stills, a 2013 fifth-round pick from Oklahoma only counts $633,613 against the cap. (Sun Sentinel)
