Josh Allen (QB, BUF) - Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 2-QB Leagues OWNED IN: 5% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen is outdoing Lamar Jackson at his own game, rushing for 135 yards in Week 13 after rushing for 99 in Week 12. He also put up decent numbers through the air, going 18-for-33 passing for 233 yards and two touchdowns […]

Brice Butler Hauls In Four Passes In Week 13
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Brice Butler had his most involved game as a Dolphin in Miami's 21-17 win over Buffalo in Week 13. Butler caught four passes on four targets for 25 yards. Butler was signed to provide depth for Miami, as the Dolphins have seen their receiving corps get decimated by injury this season. […]

Kenny Stills Catches Touchdown In Week 13
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Kenny Stills had his best game since Week 3 in Miami's 21-17 win over Buffalo in Week 13. Stills caught four passes on six targets for 37 yards and a touchdown. Stills had been floundering in Miami, having gone six straight games catching two or fewer passes before this week. He […]

DeVante Parker Leads Team In Receiving In Week 13
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Devante Parker led the team in receiving in Miami's 21-17 win over Buffalo in Week 13. Parker caught four passes on seven targets for 43 yards and a touchdown. He was questionable with a shoulder injury coming into this game, but Parker is apparently healthy enough to be Ryan Tannehill's most […]

Kenyan Drake Catches Touchdown In Week 13
Miami Dolphins running back Kenyan Drake caught one of Ryan Tannehill's three touchdown passes in Miami's 21-17 win over Buffalo in Week 13. Drake rushed seven times for 31 yards and caught two passes for 13 yards and a touchdown. Drake and Frank Gore each touched the ball nine times and appear to be an […]

Frank Gore Gains Just 31 Total Yards In Week 13
Miami Dolphins running back Frank Gore took a back seat in Miami's 21-17 win over Buffalo in Week 13. Gore rushed eight times for 21 yards and caught one pass for 10 yards. He and Kenyan Drake both had nine touches, but Drake accumulated 44 total yards and scored a touchdown. Gore is both low-ceiling […]

Ryan Tannehill Tosses Three Touchdowns In Week 13
Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill had a big day in Miami's 21-17 win over Buffalo in Week 13. Tannehill went 16-for-124 passing for 137 yards and three touchdowns along with one interception. His yardage total is rather underwhelming, but the three touchdowns certainly help offset the low yardage and pass volume. Tannehill has been inconsistent […]

A.J. Derby Inactive For Week 13
Miami Dolphins tight end A.J. Derby (foot) is inactive for Miami's Week 13 matchup with the Bills. Derby has three catches in four games played all season, so he isn't much of a fantasy option anyway. This could mean more snaps for Mike Gesicki, but Gesicki is a desperation play at tight end at best.

DeVante Parker Will Play In Week 13
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Devante Parker (shoulder) will play in Week 13 against Buffalo. Parker has been dealing with a sprained AC joint since Week 10, but hasn't missed a game yet because of it. He might see an uptick in targets with Danny Amendola (knee) out for this game, but even then Parker isn't […]

Danny Amendola Inactive For Week 13
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Danny Amendola (knee) will not play in Week 13 against Buffalo. This news is no surprise, as Amendola missed practice all week and carried a doubtful tag into this game. Kenny Stills, Devante Parker, and Leonte Carroo could all see an uptick in targets, though there isn't much fantasy value in […]

Leonte Carroo Could Have Expanded Role In Week 13
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Leonte Carroo could see an increase in target share in Week 13 against Buffalo. Veterans Danny Amendola (knee) and Devante Parker (shoulder) could both miss this game, with the former all but ruled out already. Carroo only had one catch last week, but it was a 74-yard touchdown grab. Carroo made […]

Kenny Stills A WR5 In Week 13
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Kenny Stills is a weak option in Week 13 against Buffalo. Stills hasn't had more than two receptions in a game since Week 4, and hasn't scored double-digit points since Week 3. He caught media attention this week after openly criticizing Miami's quarterback play, which is the only notable catch he's […]

Frank Gore A Low-End Flex In Week 13
Miami Dolphins running back Frank Gore is a low-end flex option in Week 13 against Buffalo. Gore is normally good for about 15 touches per game, but he isn't involved in the passing game and hasn't scored a rushing touchdown all season. He is a reliable between-the-tackles runner for Miami, but not a high-ceiling option […]

Kenyan Drake A Flex Play In Week 13
Miami Dolphins running back Kenyan Drake is a high-risk flex option in Week 13 against Buffalo. Drake is coming off his best performance of the season, a two-touchdown game against Indianapolis in Week 13. He is getting around 10-13 touches per game as of late, and Drake is explosive enough to make something of those […]

Ryan Tannehill A Poor Option In Week 13
Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill is a poor option in a Week 13 matchup with Buffalo. Tannehill put up 17.56 points in standard scoring last week against Indianapolis, his first game since Week 5 because of a shoulder injury. He draws a much tougher matchup this week, as the Bills have allowed the fewest points […]

Week 13 Quarterbacks - Waiver Wire Pickups and Adds
We've got some exciting options still on waivers this week, as a few potentially league-winning quarterbacks are still available in far too many leagues. There are no more bye weeks, which means fewer owners will need fill-in quarterbacks. It also means there will be less competition on waivers for quarterbacks, and a few high-end backups […]

Josh Allen (QB, BUF) - Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 2-QB Leagues OWNED IN: 2% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Buffalo Bills quarterback Josh Allen is raw in terms of passing ability, but he put up 26.3 points thanks to a 13 carry, 99 yard, one touchdown rushing performance this week against Jacksonville. He went just 8-for-19 passing for 160 yards and a touchdown […]

Colt McCoy (QB, WSH) - Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 2-QB Leagues OWNED IN: 4% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The Eagles were without their top three cornerbacks in Week 12, and those injured players joined three other defensive backs on the sidelines, as Philadelphia’s secondary has been decimated by injury like no other. Poor Malcolm Jenkins is left picking up the slack of […]

Leonte Carroo Catches Long Touchdown In Week 12
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Leonte Carroo made the most of his only catch in Miami's 27-24 loss to Indianapolis in Week 12. Carroo caught one pass on two targets for 74 yards and a touchdown. Carroo went over the head of Colts cornerback Pierre Desir and made a nice catch. He then caused the defender […]

Danny Amendola Catches Only Target In Week 12
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Danny Amendola found targets hard to come by in Miami's 27-24 loss to Indianapolis in Week 12. Amendola caught one pass on one target for 13 yards in the game. He had been playing much better with Brock Osweiler under center, but with Tannehill back Amendola's already meager fantasy value has […]

DeVante Parker Musters Just 10 Receiving Yards In Week 12
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Devante Parker was not productive in Miami's 27-24 loss to Indianapolis in Week 12. He caught three passes on three targets for ten yards, with a long of nine. Ryan Tannehill played this one pretty safe, perhaps to the detriment of his own team. The only successful deep ball went to […]

Kenny Stills Quiet Again In Week 12
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Kenny Stills had another quiet day in Miami's 27-24 Week 12 loss to Indianapolis. Stills caught one pass for six yards on three targets. He hasn't caught more than two passes since Week 4, and hasn't caught more than four passes in a game all season. Stills came into the season […]

Kenyan Drake Scores Twice In Week 12
Miami Dolphins running back Kenyan Drake was involved in the offense in Miami's 27-24 loss to Indianapolis in Week 12. Drake rushed eight times for 32 yards and a touchdown, and also caught five passes for 64 yards and caught a touchdown. While he was slightly out-touched by Frank Gore 15-13, Drake out-gained Gore 96-77. […]

Frank Gore Totals 77 Yards In Week 12
Miami Dolphins running back Frank Gore was heavily involved in their 27-24 loss to Indianapolis in Week 12. Gore rushed 14 times for 67 yards and caught one pass for ten yards. He out-touched Kenyan Drake 15-13, but Drake put up more total yardage and scored a touchdown. Gore is Miami's between the tackles runner, […]

Ryan Tannehill Tosses Two Touchdowns In Return
Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill played well in his return in Miami's 27-24 loss to Indianapolis in Week 12. He went 17-for-25 passing for 204 yards and two touchdowns. He was out-dueled by Andrew Luck, but that's to be expected. Tannehill should offer an upgrade to Miami receivers over Ryan Tannehill, but he didn't target […]

Danny Amendola Will Play In Week 12
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Danny Amendola will play in Week 12 against Indianapolis. Amendola was questionable all week with a hamstring injury. He suffered the injury back in Week 10, and Miami's Week 11 bye certainly helped him recover more quickly. He had developed a nice rapport with Brock Osweiler and became a low-ceiling PPR […]

DeVante Parker Active For Week 12
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Devante Parker (shoulder) will play in Week 12 against Indianapolis. Parker was questionable all week after exiting early in the Dolphins' last back in Week 10 with the injury. Miami's Week 11 bye was certainly fortuitous in aiding Parker's recovery. The return of Ryan Tannehill may give Parker a slight boost […]

Kenny Stills Looking To Reconnect With Ryan Tannehill Week 12
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Kenny Stills will get a chance to reconnect with quarterback Ryan Tannehill in Week 12 against Indianapolis. Stills averaged 8.42 standard points per game with Tannehill as quarterback, and averaged just 4.13 points per game with Brock Osweiler. Tannehill should help bring the boom back into Stills' boom-or-bust play style. He's […]
