Danny Amendola Catches Two Passes in Preseason Loss

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Danny Amendola caught two passes for 12 yards in the Dolphins' 27-20 preseason loss to the Panthers. With both Devante Parker and Kenny Stills inactive for this game one would expect more production from Amendola, however he was outshined by another new face in Miami, Albert Wilson. Amendola is 32-years-old and […]

Albert Wilson Hauls in Five Receptions in Preseason Loss

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Albert Wilson caught five passes for 39 yards in the Dolphins 27-20 preseason loss to the Panthers. With Devante Parker and Kenny Stills shelved for this game Wilson assumed the slot role for Miami, a role he thrived in with Kansas City last season. When everyone is healthy it's unclear what […]

Kenyan Drake Rushes for 54 Yards in Preseason Loss Friday

Miami Dolphins running back Kenyan Drake rushed for 54 yards on eight carries in the Dolphins' 27-20 preseason loss to the Panthers. He also caught three passes for four yards. Without Frank Gore or Kalen Ballage Drake was the main back in this one, and rushed well against one of the best rush defenses in […]

Ryan Tannehill Throws for 100 Yards in Preseason Loss Friday

Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill was 14-for-17 passing for 100 yards with no touchdowns and no interceptions in the Dolphins 27-20 preseason loss to the Panthers. Tannehill got much more playing time this game compared to last week, when he only played one series and attempted six passes. Tannehill is looking healthy after coming off […]

Stop that Hype Train! George Kittle (TE, SF)

Unless an owner commits heavy draft capital into a tight end, we’re usually left scrambling for someone towards the end of the draft. This season is no different, with hype trains surrounding late round tight ends like Trey Burton, Tyler Eifert, and David Njoku. One player, sandwiched in the middle of those aforementioned tight ends, […]

Jerome Baker Receiving High Marks in Practice

Miami Dolphins rookie linebacker Jerome Baker has received heavy praise from both the Dolphins coaching staff and front office this preseason in training camp. Baker, a third round pick out of Ohio State, could become a starting linebacker for the Dolphins. He replaced incumbent strong-side linebacker Stephone Anthony in practice on Sunday and has been […]

Kendall Langford Signs With Dolphins

The Miami Dolphins signed defensive lineman Kendall Langford two days after cutting defensive tackle Gabe Wright for a practice altercation. Langford has played both defensive end and defensive tackle in his career, but will likely serve as a tackle on the Dolphins' 4-3 defense. He spent time with Indianapolis, New Orleans, and Houston last season, […]

DeVante Parker Could Miss Two Weeks With Hand Injury

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Devante Parker (hand) could miss two weeks after suffering a hand injury in practice on Sunday after colliding with cornerback Xavien Howard.

According to Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald this was one of several fight that took place during practice, however Wright elbowed Drake in the back of the head while Drake was not wearing a helmet.

Kalen Ballage Kicked Out of Huddle by Ryan Tannehill in Practice Sunday

Miami Dolphins rookie running back Kalen Ballage was kicked out of the huddle by quarterback Ryan Tannehill on Sunday. Tannehill also berated Ballage after the incident to press the issue. Ballage apparently missed a blocking assignment which led to a sack of Tannehill. Tannehill had the support of his coaching staff, as head coach Adam […]

Bashaud Breeland Visits Miami Dolphins

Cornerback Bashaud Breeland is visiting with the Miami Dolphins today. They are interested in signing the 25-year-old free agent. Breeland spent the first four seasons of his career with Washington, where he started opposite Josh Norman last season. The Dolphins' brass must not have been happy with what they saw from their secondary in Thursday's […]

Why Zero RB Won't Work in 2018

Take yourself back to the 2015 draft season. We had just come off the year of the receiver, highlighted by breakout rookie seasons from Odell Beckham Jr. and Mike Evans, and career years from Emmanuel Sanders and Golden Tate. In 2014, 23 players had 1,000 or more receiving yards and 10 had more than 1,300. […]

Mike Hull Carted Off the Field With Knee Injury

Miami Dolphins linebacker Mike Hull (knee) had to be carted off the field in the Dolphins' 26-24 preseason loss to the Buccaneers. The injury looked serious for Hull and potentially season-ending. While he is the backup middle linebacker, Hull is a key member of the Dolphins' special teams unit. The Dolphins defense really isn't a […]

Kalen Ballage Tallies 60 Total Yards in First Preseason Game

Miami Dolphins running back Kalen Ballage had 10 carries for 37 rushing yards and three catches for 23 yards in the Dolphins' 26-24 loss to the Buccaneers. With Frank Gore not receiving a touch and Kenyan Drake only playing one series Ballage served as the feature back for Miami in this preseason contest. A fourth […]

Kenyan Drake Gets Three Carries in First Preseason Game

Miami Dolphins running back Kenyan Drake got three carries and picked up 16 yards in the Dolphins' 26-24 preseason loss to the Buccaneers. Drake only played the opening series before being lifted. It's common for starters to only play one or two series in early preseason games, so it's nice to see Drake get the […]

Ryan Tannehill Plays One Series in First Preseason Game

Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill (knee) was 4-for-6 for 32 yards passing in the Dolphins' 26-24 preseason loss to the Buccaneers. This was Tannehill's first game action since 2016 after he suffered a torn ACL in his knee that season. Most starters won't play more than a series or two in early preseason games, so […]

Kevin Gausman To The Braves - Fantasy Implications

With so many big-name players changing teams this trade deadline Kevin Gausman may fly under the radar. On the surface, he doesn’t look like much, with a 5-8 record and 4.43 ERA, 1.38 WHIP, and 7.55 K/9 in 21 starts with Baltimore this season. However, this move to Atlanta could be exactly what Gausman needs […]

Ryan Tannehill OK After Incidental Contact in Practice

Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill (shin) was accidentally kicked in the shin during practice on Wednesday. He fell to the ground and writhed in pain, but thankfully did not re-aggravate the knee injury which cost him the entire 2017 season. There were reports out of training camp that Tannehill looked healthy and ready to play, […]

A.J. Derby Considered Day-To-Day

Miami Dolphins tight end A.J. Derby (foot) is day-to-day with a minor foot injury. This doesn't appear to be serious and probably won't hold him out of practice for longer than a few days. Derby was practicing with the first team and appears to be the frontrunner for the starting tight end job in Miami. […]

Chris Ivory (RB, BUF) - 2018 Fantasy Football Draft Sleeper

BALLER MOVE: Target ~165 CURRENT ADP: ~180 ANALYSIS: It’s always tough to deal with legal situations in fantasy football, especially since the NFL has proven to be inconsistent with its punitive measures regarding domestic violence situations in the past. Regardless, the fantasy fallout of a potential LeSean McCoy suspension would shift the entire outlook of the Bills offense […]

Terrelle Pryor (WR, NYJ) - 2018 Fantasy Football Draft Sleeper

BALLER MOVE: Target ~220 CURRENT ADP: ~230 ANALYSIS: New York Jets wide receiver Terrelle Pryor fell flat on his face during his only season in Washington.
