They have the extra 2023 1st rounder from the trade down, so losing a 2022 1st rounder probably wouldn't hurt them. Also if the Bengals do take Chase as expected, that means they wouldn't have to worry about taking the #2 WR and instead can take the #1 OT or #1 TE (whichever is there) at 6.
They are close (10-6 but missed the playoffs in 2020) so it could be the extra step forward they need. They can probably make it work financially as well as they're 15th in cap space. The Dolphins already had the 6th scoring defense last year. If they can add Pitts AND Julio Jones on offense, they probably surpass the Bills in the division and become favorites to face the Chiefs in the AFC Championship.
(Also, the 49ers don't have a 1st round pick in 2022 or 2023. They gave it up to trade up with Miami.)
I don't think Julio brings a 1st like people are talking about, I am expecting a 2nd, potentially a 2nd they recover from moving Jimmy G. The last WR traded for a 1st round pick was Brandon Cooks and that was a bust, before that it doesn't look much better in the last 20 years and none were 32.
