Three Important Trends to Know for Late-Season Fantasy Football

The second half of the fantasy football season has been underway for a few weeks now and it is pertinent that we note some trends that can determine where/how to perceive certain players. Teams tend to alternate usage of certain guys throughout the season as teams either hit a skid or stride. Rookies often see […]

Jakeem Grant Has Low-End WR3 Value

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jakeem Grant Sr. (hamstring) was limited during Thursday's practice, which is not a good sign. There is a chance that Grant is unable to suit up for the Week 12 matchup against the New York Jets. That would likely mean that DeVante Parker and Mike Gesicki would see plenty of targets […]

DeVante Parker Has WR2 Upside In Week 12

Miami Dolphins wide receiver DeVante Parker has been basically the only useful weapon in the passing attack for this offense all season long. Last week, Parker hauled in six receptions for 61 yards and one touchdown in the loss to the Denver Broncos. Parker and rookie Tua Tagovailoa have not been able to develop consistent […]

Matt Breida Unlikely To Produce Versus Jets

Miami Dolphins running back Matt Breida has a total of 132 rushing yards heading into the Week 12 matchup against the New York Jets. It has been a rough year for him on the ground, but he doesn't exactly get a lot of touches. However, both Myles Gaskin (knee) and Salvon Ahmed (shoulder) are in […]

Myles Gaskin Might Return Versus Jets

Miami Dolphins running back Myles Gaskin (knee) was able to return to practice on Wednesday, which is a great sign. He sprained his MCL in Week 8 and has missed three games since then. Salvon Ahmed (shoulder) has missed two straight practices and is in danger of sitting out during the Week 12 matchup versus […]

Salvon Ahmed In Danger Of Sitting Out In Week 12

Miami Dolphins running back Salvon Ahmed (shoulder) remained on the sideline for Thursday's practice. He has missed two straight practices and is in danger of sitting out of the Week 12 matchup against the New York Jets. Ahmed has taken over the lead back role in Miami over the last few weeks. His absence would […]

Tua Tagovailoa Should Rebound Versus Jets

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (thumb) has been limited during practice this week, but is expected to suit up for the Week 12 matchup versus the New York Jets. Tagovailoa was horrendous against the Denver Broncos last week and was benched in favor of Ryan Fitzpatrick in the fourth quarter. However, Tagovailoa has a great […]

Dolphins Not Worried About Tua Tagovailoa's Injury

Miami Dolphins head coach Brian Flores said he's not worried about the injury that rookie quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (thumb) suffered in practice on Wednesday. Tagovailoa jammed his left thumb in practice. "He got banged up a little bit. He's a tough kid. He's going to do everything he can from a treatment standpoint. We'll see. […]

Coaching Matters: Offenses That Will Improve From Week 11

This series continues into its eleventh week of where I dive into offensive areas that will improve or decline based on coaching in order to glean insight as to fantasy football value. In Week 11, we saw performances such as Jared Goff throwing for 376 yards, the Houston Texans running backs combining for 19 rushing yards, and the New Orleans […]

Myles Gaskin Designated To Return From Injured Reserve

The Miami Dolphins designated running back Myles Gaskin (knee) to return from Injured Reserve on Wednesday. The club also activated defensive tackle Christian Wilkins from the Reserve/COVID-19 list. Gaskin practiced in a non-contact jersey on Wednesday, but his activation from IR doesn't necessarily ensure that he'll play in Week 12 against the Jets. In fact, […]

Tua Tagovailoa Limited In Practice Wednesday

Miami Dolphins rookie quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (thumb) was limited in Wednesday's practice with a left thumb injury. Tagovailoa jammed his left thumb on a helmet in practice, but early indications are that it's nothing serious. The Alabama product struggled mightily for the first time in four starts against the Broncos last week and was benched […]

The Cut List (Week 12) - Time to Let Go?

As someone who faced Taysom Hill in both of my home leagues this week, I feel for anyone else who wound up in a similar position. I feel worse for the many people who voiced their concerns on this matter via Twitter (some admittedly in more reasonable tones than others) only to be derided or […]

Waiver Wire Express - Week 12 Lightning Round

Week 11 is largely in the books with some nailbiter finishes and standout performances that will shape the stretch run. The injury headlines are dominated by Joe Burrow's suspected ACL tear, but we also saw La'Mical Perine and Rex Burkhead leave with knee injuries as well. And now J.K. Dobbins and Mark Ingram II are […]

Week 11 Outliers Analysis - We Must Overreact!

Week 11 was an odd one for quarterbacks. The Patriots Defense stifled Lamar Jackson in Week 10 and followed that up by allowing Deshaun Watson to finish as the No. 1 quarterback on the week. Taysom Hill, Kirk Cousins, Philip Rivers and Andy Dalton were the unfamiliar names that found themselves inside the top-10 this week. […]

Miami Adds Jesse Davis To COVID-19 List

Miami Dolphins offensive lineman Jesse Davis has been placed on the COVID-19 list on Monday and will reportedly not be available for Sunday's game versus the Jets. Players do not have to test positive to be added to the list. Davis' absence likely means that Rob Hunt will slide over to man the right tackle […]

Dolphins Still Have Confidence In Tua Tagovailoa

Miami Dolphins head coach Brian Flores said that rookie quarterback Tua Tagovailoa remains the team's starting quarterback despite being benched in the fourth quarter in the Week 11 loss to the Broncos. "He's a talented player. He's a young player," Flores said. "He's a developing player. We have a lot of confidence in him. That's […]

Jakeem Grant Disappointing Against Broncos

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jakeem Grant Sr. has seen his fantasy value get a slight uptick over the last few weeks. Sadly, Grant wasn't able to do much damage during the Week 11 loss to the Denver Broncos. He hauled in two of his six targets for 12 yards in this one. It appears the […]

Mike Gesicki Hauls In Four Receptions

Miami Dolphins tight end Mike Gesicki is finally starting to put together some fantasy value after a disappointing start to the season. He hauled in four of his five targets for 43 yards in the Week 11 loss to the Denver Broncos. That performance now makes it three straight games that Gesicki has finished with […]

DeVante Parker Bounces Back In Week 11

Miami Dolphins wide receiver DeVante Parker put together a nice outing after posting a dud the week prior. He hauled in six of his nine targets for 61 yards and one touchdown in the Week 11 loss to the Denver Broncos. Tua Tagovailoa was benched in the fourth quarter, so Parker owners were probably happy […]

Matt Breida A Non-Factor In Loss

Miami Dolphins running back Matt Breida returned for the Week 11 matchup against the Denver Broncos after being inactive each of the last two games. He rushed twice for four yards in the loss. Salvon Ahmed remains the lead back and gets a majority of the receiving work in the backfield as well. Breida has […]

Salvon Ahmed Heavily Involved In Week 11

Miami Dolphins running back Salvon Ahmed has turned himself into the featured back with Myles Gaskin (knee) sidelined. He rushed 12 times for 43 yards and caught five of his six targets for 31 yards in the Week 11 loss to the Denver Broncos. It's unclear when Gaskin will return, so Ahmed will remain the […]

Ryan Fitzpatrick Takes Over In Fourth Quarter

Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Fitzpatrick was benched during the Week 7 bye week in favor of rookie Tua Tagovailoa. The Dolphins have won three straight games under Tagovailoa, but the winning hasn't been because of his performance. Fitzpatrick entered this matchup with roughly 10 minutes left and immediately outplayed Tagovailoa. He completed 12 of 18 […]

Tua Tagovailoa Benched In Loss

Miami Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa played his worst game of his professional career in the Week 11 loss to the Denver Broncos. He completed 11 of 20 passing attempts for 83 yards and one touchdown before being benched in the fourth quarter. Veteran Ryan Fitzpatrick took over and immediately looked better than Tagovailoa. However, the […]

NFL DFS Value Picks for DraftKings, FanDuel - Week 12 DFS Cash Games

We have made it to Week 12 of the NFL season, and we have some serious COVID issues to monitor. The Ravens/Steelers game was moved from Thanksgiving night to Sunday, and that game is still unlikely to play as there are more positive cases, including Lamar Jackson. The Broncos, Falcons, and other teams have positive […]

Tua Tagovailoa Confirmed As Starter

Miami Dolphins head coach Brian Flores confirmed after Sunday's loss to the Broncos that quarterback Tua Tagovailoa is the starter next week, even though he was benched on Sunday for Ryan Fitzpatrick. Tagovailoa hasn't put up consistently strong numbers in his brief time as an NFL starter but could be a solid streaming play against […]

Ryan Fitzpatrick Comes In For Tua Tagovailoa

The Miami Dolphins have made a quarterback switch during Sunday's game against the Broncos, bringing Ryan Fitzpatrick in for Tua Tagovailoa. Tua took a hard hit on a sack and appeared to come down awkwardly on his ankle, which could explain the move. Or maybe, down multiple scores, the Dolphins want to play things safe […]

Salvon Ahmed Questionable To Return With Shoulder Injury

Miami Dolphins rookie running back Salvon Ahmed (shoulder) injured his shoulder in the first quarter of Sunday's game against the Denver Broncos. He left the game and is questionable to return. If Ahmed misses a bulk of this week's game, or all of the game, Matt Breida would likely see a sizeable workload with Patrick […]
