William Hayes Has Torn ACL
Miami Dolphins head coach Adam Gase said defensive end William Hayes (knee) will miss the rest of the season after tearing his ACL in the Week 3 win over the Raiders. The injury occurred when Hayes was trying to avoid putting his body weight on the quarterback during a hit. Hayes had four tackles and […]
Jakeem Grant (WR, MIA) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 3% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Forget Devante Parker, he's just a decoy for Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jakeem Grant and Albert Wilson these days. Grant was the speedy return guy used on gimmick plays last year. Now he's looking like the Dolphins' version of Tyreek Hill. Grant turned two offensive touches into […]
Albert Wilson (WR, MIA) - Week 4 Waiver Wire Pickups
BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 1% of Leagues ANALYSIS: I have had Miami Dolphins wide receiver Albert Wilson as a waiver pickup for the last three weeks to write about and every time I get ready to add him, I change my mind last second and go with a different name. Well, […]
Mike Gesicki Trends Positively In Week 3
Miami Dolphins rookie tight end Mike Gesicki had three catches for 31 yards in Week 3 against the Oakland Raiders. The Dolphins have been hinting that they wanted to get Gesicki more involved, and this week proves that is true. For now, Gesicki remains a low-end TE2 option but could be a temporary option moving […]
Jakeem Grant Catches Touchdown In Week 3
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jakeem Grant caught two passes for 70 yards and a touchdown in the Dolphins 28-20 Week 3 win over the Raiders. Grant's touchdown came on a trick play where he was thrown the ball from wide receiver Albert Wilson. Grant was all alone on the right side of the field when […]
DeVante Parker Catches Two Passes In Season Debut
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Devante Parker caught two passes for 40 yards in the Dolphins' 28-20 win over the Raiders in Week 3. This was Parker's season debut, as he missed Week 1 with a finger injury and in Week 2 he was a healthy scratch. Parker made a nice play on a 36-yard grab […]
Danny Amendola Catches All Three Targets In Week 3
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Danny Amendola caught three passes for 42 yards in the Dolphins' 28-20 win over the Raiders in Week 3. Amendola has had similar outputs in the first two weeks of the season, and his zone of production seems to be in the 3-5 catch range and 30-50 yard range. That really […]
Kenny Stills Catches Touchdown In Week 3
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Kenny Stills caught three passes for 61 yards and a touchdown in the Dolphins' 28-20 win over the Raiders in Week 3. Stills was Miami's most targeted receiver with five and still appears to be the number one option despite big days from Albert Wilson and Jakeem Grant. His touchdown was […]
Albert Wilson Catches And Throws A Touchdown Week 3
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Albert Wilson caught two passes for 74 yards and a touchdown and also threw a 52-yard touchdown pass in the Dolphins' 28-20 win over the Raiders in Week 3. Wilson had two explosive plays in this one. His touchdown catch was essentially a running play as he receiver a pitch behind […]
Frank Gore Rushes For 12 Yards In Week 3
Miami Dolphins running back Frank Gore rushed six times for 12 yards in the Dolphins' 28-20 win over the Raiders in Week 3. Gore was largely ineffective on the ground and gained half of his yardage total in one rush. The good news for Gore was that Kenyan Drake was somehow worse, rushing for three […]
Kenyan Drake Musters Just 10 Total Yards In Week 3
Miami Dolphins running back Kenyan Drake only tallied 10 total yards in the Dolphins' 28-20 win over the Raiders in Week 3. He rushed five times for three yards and caught two passes for seven yards. Drake could not get anything going and was out-carried 6-5 by Frank Gore. Gore didn't perform much better, gaining […]
Ryan Tannehill Tosses Three Touchdowns In Week 3
Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill turned in his best performance thus far this year, going 17-for-23 passing with 289 yards and three touchdowns. He was also Miami's leading rusher in the game, picking up 26 yards on three tries. Tannehill's biggest play was a 74-yard connection with Albert Wilson for a touchdown, but altogether he […]
DeVante Parker Active For Week 3
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Devante Parker is active for Week 3 against the Raiders. Parker missed Week 1 with a finger injury and was considered a healthy scratch in Week 2. Even though Parker is active he isn't an advisable fantasy option. Miami doesn't have a prolific passing game and Parker seems to have fallen […]
Reshad Jones Inactive Against Raiders
Miami Dolphins safety Reshad Jones (shoulder) is inactive for Week 3 against the Raiders. That's bad news for the Dolphins secondary and good news for Oakland quarterback Derek Carr and their deep passing game. Make sure Jones is benched in IDP formats. Rookie running back Kalen Ballage, wide receiver Tanner McEvoy and quarterbacks David Fales […]

Dolphins Defense A Low-End Play This Weekend
The Miami Dolphins defense has been well below average when it comes to passing yards allowed over the first two games of the season. In Week 3, they will be facing the Oakland Raiders offense that has been well above average in passing. Derek Carr has proven to be a solid quarterback, and coach Jon […]
Albert Wilson A Low-End WR3 In Week 3
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Albert Wilson is facing a decent matchup in Week 3 against the Raiders. In Week 2 Wilson led the Dolphins in receiving yards (37) and targets (5) last week, though they only threw the ball 23 times. Wilson outperformed Danny Amendola, his main competitor for targets from the slot position, though […]
Danny Amendola A WR4 In Week 3
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Danny Amendola is a low-end flex option in Week 3. Amendola hauled in four catches for only 32 yards in Week 2, and like always is best used in PPR leagues. Amendola has had four catches through the first two weeks but for only 58 yards and no touchdowns. The ceiling […]
Kenny Stills A WR2 In Week 3
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Kenny Stills will be the Dolphins No. 1 receiver in Week 3 against the Raiders. Stills was disappointing in Week 2 with only two catches for 17 yards, but that is the nature of a deep threat receiver like Stills. He is known to be boom-or-bust in any given week. The Raiders […]
Frank Gore A Low-End Flex Option In Week 3
Miami Dolphins running back Frank Gore will split carries with Kenyan Drake in Week 3. He got nine carries last week, but only produced 25 yards on the ground. Gore has gotten exactly nine carries in the first two weeks of the season, so his market share on offense should be somewhere in the 7-10 […]
Week 3 Busts - Overvalued Players to Avoid In Fantasy Football
Through two weeks of the NFL season, my hit rate on projecting non-quarterback busts has been pretty strong, but when it comes to predicting which quarterbacks would struggles...man, it's been tough. Ryan Fitzpatrick in Week 2 and Patrick Mahomes in Week 1... Still, it's Week 3, and we're starting to get some better data to […]
Week 3 Consistency Reports - All Positions
Assessing consistency after two weeks of the season is always tough but in a 16-game season we have already seen an eighth of it. Therefore, looking at how players have started the season is still useful. It may not be a predictor of long-term fantasy consistency but it does give us an impression of who […]

Reshad Jones Expected To Play
Miami Dolphins safety Reshad Jones (shoulder), who is questionable for Week 3 against the Raiders, is expected to play on Sunday. Jones is one of the more attractive IDP safeties in the league and has six tackles and two interceptions through two weeks. If he's on the field, it'll be a downgrade for Raiders quarterback […]
