Houston Texans star outside linebacker Jadeveon Clowney could very well be traded before the start of the 2019 season, and one team that's been linked are the Miami Dolphins.

That would be a huge get for rookie head coach Brian Flores, who is a former defensive coach with the New England Patriots.

However, it would likely take a very good player going back to Houston to make this happen, and the most logical fit would be offensive lineman Laremy Tunsil, since the Texans need serious help protecting Deshaun Watson.

Yet, maybe the Dolphins should rethink that strategy.

"The backlash would be amazing,” a source told the Miami Herald regarding if Tunsil was traded. “Guys would legit revolt.”

If you look past the debacle that took place on draft night and focus on Tunsil as a player, you could understand his teammates being peeved. He's a Pro Bowl-caliber left tackle entering the prime of his career, who has a couple more years of club control.

You don't trade someone like that for a highly-touted pass rusher who is injured far too often and would cost a lot to keep around beyond this year.
