I think that would have been a dumb trade for Miami. the value of the 22nd pick is only 780 which is 2220 less than the first overall which would mean for that trade to make sense you would have to value Derek Anderson as being worth more than the 3rd overall pick in the draft.

Not really buying it

Browns | Savage explains why he upped offer to D. Anderson
Tue, 1 Apr 2008 21:22:54 -0700

Tony Grossi, of the Cleveland Plain Dealer, reports Cleveland Browns general manager Phil Savage said he upped the team's contract offer to QB Derek Anderson because he was afraid the Dallas Cowboys would sign him and trade him to the Miami Dolphins. Savage was afraid Dallas would sign Anderson to a big contract that included a "poison pill." The Cowboys would have given the Browns their first-round pick, No. 28 overall, and their third-round pick as compensation for signing the restricted free agent. The Cowboys would then have traded Anderson and their other first-round pick, No. 22 overall, to the Miami Dolphins for the No. 1 overall pick in the draft. As a result, the Browns raised their maximum offer from $22 million to $24 million when they signed him.
