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 […]

Bye weeks are over. The fantasy playoffs are just around the corner. This crunch time for you, readers, and one goal of crunch time is to avoid making any egregious mistakes. Sure, some dudes are matchup-proof, but a lot of others aren't. Sadly, we have to say goodbye to one of the mainstays of this […]

Week 13 Consistency Reports - Start/Sit Decisions

Week 13 is here with a bang! We are past all the byes and we are back to just having the one game on a Thursday. Unfortunately the Saints high flying offense was somewhat lost to the week against a very good Dallas defense. The good news is that other high flying offenses in the […]

Flex Heroes and Zeroes - Week 13 Fantasy Football Picks

If you're like me, and I pray for your soul that you are not, then you tend to occasionally stray from the logical way of thinking and revert to subjective decision-making processes. For example, I just picked up Carlos Hyde in the RotoBaller Experts League because I have Melvin Gordon and now need to fill […]

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 […]

This will help you maintain an extensive level of knowledge regarding the number of […]

Dolphins Extend Nick O'Leary

The Miami Dolphins signed tight end Nick O'Leary to a one-year contract extension on Saturday. O'Leary was a sixth-round pick of the Bills in 2015. He has seven catches on eight targets for 77 yards and a touchdown with Miami this year and isn't a fantasy option behind tight end Mike Gesicki.

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 […]

Danny Amendola Doubtful To Face Bills

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Danny Amendola (knee) missed practice all week and is doubtful to play in Week 13 against the Bills. Remove Amendola from your lineups in deeper leagues. With him likely being inactive, it'll mean more targets for the likes of Devante Parker, Kenny Stills and Leonte Carroo. However, against a stingy Bills […]

DeVante Parker, A.J. Derby Questionable

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Devante Parker (shoulder) and tight end A.J. Derby (foot, knee) are both questionable for Week 13 against the Bills. Parker should be able to suit up this Sunday and could see increased targets with Danny Amendola (knee) doubtful. Still, Parker is a risky WR4/flex, as he has eight catches for 53 […]

Danny Amendola Does Individual Drills Friday

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Danny Amendola (knee) only did individual drills in practice on Friday. Despite the fact that he hasn't practiced all week, The Palm Beach Post's Jason Lieser would be surprised if Amendola doesn't play in Week 13 against the Bills. We're not so confident that Amendola will suit up. Even if he […]

Kenny Stills Voices Frustration

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Kenny Stills voiced his frustration with the offense on Thursday. "I couldn't tell you exactly why I'm not getting more targets. I can tell you I'm getting open. There are other guys open on plays, too, that aren't getting hit. I can't throw the ball to myself," Stills said. Stills is […]

Danny Amendola Still Absent Thursday

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Danny Amendola (knee) remains out of practice for the second straight day on Thursday. It's looking unlikely that Amendola will suit up and play in Week 13 against the Bills. If he doesn't play, it'll mean more work for Devante Parker, Kenny Stills and Leonte Carroo, although none of them are […]

Danny Amendola Not Practicing Wednesday

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Danny Amendola (knee) did not practice on Wednesday. Amendola was hurt early in the Week 12 loss to the Colts and had just one catch for 13 yards in the contest. He looked to be in considerable pain and could be a long shot to play in Week 13 against the […]

Frank Gore (RB, MIA) - Week 13 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 25% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Miami Dolphins running back Frank Gore has 131 carries for 595 yards this season, but could see a boost in his value this week. Kenyan Drake, who had two touchdowns last week, is dealing with a shoulder injury and could miss this weekend's game. […]

Kenyan Drake To Rest Shoulder This Week In Practice

Miami Dolphins running back Kenyan Drake (shoulder) fell on his injured shoulder in the Week 12 loss to the Colts and will not take contact in practice this week. Drake only had 32 yards rushing on eight carries on Sunday, but he found the end zone on the ground and also had five catches for […]

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 […]
