Rookies Worth Your Attention in Week 3

In this column, we will look at rookies who have either performed well the previous few weeks or who have a favorable matchup in the upcoming week.

Danny Amendola Should Be Avoided

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Danny Amendola has been struggling to be the PPR monster he was in the past. Amendola has only eight catches for 58 yards this year. The yardage isn't all that concerning, but for Amendola to be a productive fantasy player, he needs more receptions. The Dolphins do have a favorable matchup... Read More

Frank Gore An Option For Week 3

Miami Dolphins running back Frank Gore has continued to show that he is a viable fantasy option even though he has running back Kenyan Drake taking the majority of touches.

Tre'Quan Smith Should See Increased Targets

New Orleans Saints rookie wide receiver Tre'Quan Smith should see an increase in targets as the season progresses.

Mike Gesicki Pleased With Early-Season Role

Miami Dolphins rookie tight end Mike Gesicki says that he is pleased with his role over the first two games of the season.

Mike Gillislee Sees Small Increase In Touches

New Orleans Saints running back Mike Gillislee had eight carries for 18 yards in Sunday's win against the Cleveland Browns, an increase of five touches and nine yards from Week 1.

Miami Dolphins left guard Josh Sitton (shoulder) will be out for the remainder of the season with a torn rotator cuff.

Read More

Kenyan Drake In Complicated Situation For Week 2

Miami Dolphins running back Kenyan Drake is in a tough fantasy situation heading into his Week 2 matchup against the New York Jets.

Alvin Kamara Could See Reduced Touches Moving Forward

New Orleans Saints running back Alvin Kamara could see a slight reduction in touches moving forward. Kamara was on the field for 52 snaps during Week 1 and head coach Sean Payton says it was largely due to the fact that the Saints were playing from behind.

Gavin Escobar Released By Dolphins

Miami Dolphins tight end Gavin Escobar has been released to make room for the signing of center Travis Swanson. Escobar had no receptions in the Dolphins Week 1 matchup.

Frank Gore Sits Out Thursday's Practice, Active For Sunday

Miami Dolphins running back Frank Gore sat out of practice on Thursday, likely for rest. At 35 years old, it makes sense for the Dolphins to keep Gore's workload down to ensure he can play the entire season. Gore remains a low-end fantasy option and should only be used for his potential goal-line scores. There is... Read More

Andrus Peat Sits Out Practice Wednesday, Limited Thursday

New Orleans Saints left guard Andrus Peat (quadriceps) was out of practice on Wednesday and was limited on Thursday. Peat's injury doesn't seem too concerning, but his status for Sunday's game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers is still unknown.

Williams Hayes Practices on Wednesday, Dolphins Defense at 100%

Miami Dolphins defensive end Williams Hayes returned to practice on Wednesday, which puts the Dolphins defense at 100 percent for the first time since early in training camp.
