Malik Willis Not Set Up for Immediate Success in Miami
Quarterback Malik Willis is guaranteed a starting role in 2026 after signing a three-year, $67.5 million deal with the Miami Dolphins in free agency this offseason. But that doesn't mean that he should be a QB target in dynasty/keeper leagues. The 26-year-old former third-rounder by the Tennessee Titans in 2022 out of Liberty was efficient and avoided turnovers the last two years as Jordan Love's backup with the Packers, completing 78.7% of his pass attempts for 976 yards, six touchdowns, and no interceptions in 11 games (three starts), also adding 261 rushing yards and three scores on 42 carries. Willis definitely has attractive physical traits -- a strong arm and plenty of wheels -- but he's started only six games in his NFL career and won't have many proven weapons on offense in Miami (outside of RB De'Von Achane) behind an offensive line with plenty of question marks. He's not exactly set up for success with a starting three-wideout set of Jalen Tolbert, Malik Washington, and Tutu Atwell. Despite a guaranteed starting role, Willis is only ranked as RotoBaller's QB24 in dynasty leagues, and he'll merely be a low-end QB2 with rushing upside for those in two-QB superflex formats in 2026.
