The Miami Dolphins are a fantasy football D/ST waiver wire pickup and streamer. Week 8 (2023) fantasy football team defenses - free agent waiver wire adds.
BALLER MOVE: 12+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED IN: 48% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Make sure to check your waiver wires for the Dolphins defense. At less than 50% rostered, Miami qualifies as a streamer, and they are easily one of the best streamers of Week 8. In Week 7, Miami put fantasy managers in the precarious position of deciding whether to start them in a tough matchup against the Eagles or drop them.
They were dropped in over 40% of Yahoo leagues as their rostership was 93% a week ago.
The Patriots may have pulled the upset against the Bills in their house, but the Dolphins get them in Miami with the opportunity to add to their increasing lead atop the NFC East. When the Dolphins did play in New England in Week 2, they recorded four sacks and forced two turnovers while holding New England to 17 points. The Dolphins are a dark horse to be the top-scoring DST in Week 8.
