A.J. Derby Placed On Injured Reserve

The Miami Dolphins placed tight end A.J. Derby (foot) on Injured Reserve on Tuesday and claimed cornerback Dee Delaney in a corresponding move. Derby had just three catches on five targets for 48 yards and a touchdown in three games for Miami in 2018 as the backup tight end. Rookie Mike Gesicki will continue to […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 2-QB  Leagues OWNED IN: 4% of Leagues ANALYSIS: The Dolphins finally finished what they started and came away with a victory over Buffalo, as quarterback Ryan Tannehill threw for three touchdowns.

Week 14 Waiver Wire Pickups - All Positions

The picture is pretty clear for fantasy owners seeking help on the waiver wire. All the good quarterbacks are gone, the tight end outlook is bleak at best, there are a ton of wide receivers who could pop in a given week, and one RB (in Pittsburgh) stands clearly above the rest in a group […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 30% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Miami Dolphins running back Frank Gore had his worst game of the 2018 season, but still has been getting a good amount of work in the Dolphins offense. While Kenyan Drake outsnapped Gore 30-20 on Sunday, Gore's performance on Sunday (where he tallied 31 total […]

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues OWNED IN: 30% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Miami Dolphins wide receiver Kenny Still grabbed a touchdown in the Dolphins' 21-17 win over the Bills on Sunday and has been targeted more in each of the last four weeks. After registering just one target against the Jets on November 4, Stills […]

Brice Butler Hauls In Four Passes In Week 13

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Brice Butler had his most involved game as a Dolphin in Miami's 21-17 win over Buffalo in Week 13. Butler caught four passes on four targets for 25 yards. Butler was signed to provide depth for Miami, as the Dolphins have seen their receiving corps get decimated by injury this season. […]

Kenny Stills Catches Touchdown In Week 13

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Kenny Stills had his best game since Week 3 in Miami's 21-17 win over Buffalo in Week 13. Stills caught four passes on six targets for 37 yards and a touchdown. Stills had been floundering in Miami, having gone six straight games catching two or fewer passes before this week. He […]

DeVante Parker Leads Team In Receiving In Week 13

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Devante Parker led the team in receiving in Miami's 21-17 win over Buffalo in Week 13. Parker caught four passes on seven targets for 43 yards and a touchdown. He was questionable with a shoulder injury coming into this game, but Parker is apparently healthy enough to be Ryan Tannehill's most […]

Kenyan Drake Catches Touchdown In Week 13

Miami Dolphins running back Kenyan Drake caught one of Ryan Tannehill's three touchdown passes in Miami's 21-17 win over Buffalo in Week 13. Drake rushed seven times for 31 yards and caught two passes for 13 yards and a touchdown. Drake and Frank Gore each touched the ball nine times and appear to be an […]

Frank Gore Gains Just 31 Total Yards In Week 13

Miami Dolphins running back Frank Gore took a back seat in Miami's 21-17 win over Buffalo in Week 13. Gore rushed eight times for 21 yards and caught one pass for 10 yards. He and Kenyan Drake both had nine touches, but Drake accumulated 44 total yards and scored a touchdown. Gore is both low-ceiling […]

Ryan Tannehill Tosses Three Touchdowns In Week 13

Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill had a big day in Miami's 21-17 win over Buffalo in Week 13. Tannehill went 16-for-124 passing for 137 yards and three touchdowns along with one interception. His yardage total is rather underwhelming, but the three touchdowns certainly help offset the low yardage and pass volume. Tannehill has been inconsistent […]

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 […]

Hello and welcome to the weekly column that puts my rankings in the spotlight and compares them against the Expert Consensus Rankings (ECR).

Week 13 Busts - Overvalued Players to Avoid In Fantasy Football

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 […]
