MarQueis Gray Limited Wednesday

Miami Dolphins tight end MarQueis Gray (foot) was limited in practice on Wednesday. Gray is listed as the team's starting tight end, but rookie Mike Gesicki has the most pass-catching upside of the group and could become a red-zone option immediately for quarterback Ryan Tannehill. Gray should be ignored in fantasy leagues.

Frank Gore, Jakeem Grant On Injury Report

Miami Dolphins running back Frank Gore (Achilles) and wide receiver Jakeem Grant (concussion) were both on the injury report on Wednesday, but both players practiced in full. It's not a good sign that the veteran Gore is already on the injury report, but it looks like he'll be fine to play in Week 1 against […]

Williams Hayes Practices on Wednesday, Dolphins Defense at 100%

Miami Dolphins defensive end Williams Hayes returned to practice on Wednesday, which puts the Dolphins defense at 100 percent for the first time since early in training camp. Despite the early-season health, the Dolphins defense is not in any position to have an improved 2018 campaign; they will likely repeat their below-average 2017 season. They […]

DeVante Parker Won't Play Sunday

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Devante Parker (finger) will not play in the season opener this Sunday, according to a league source. He's been out since Aug. 12 when he suffered a broken finger during practice. Both Albert Wilson and Jakeem Grant will likely see more snaps in the offense as a result against the Titans. […]

To Draft or Not to Draft - Running Backs

Similar to the previous article on wide receivers, we will be focusing on running backs that have extremely low ADPs in most drafts. I’m looking to discuss players that are on the “Island of Misfit Toys” or players that are “Dumpster Dives.” Players that will be drafted to sit on your bench or end up […]

The Running Back Handcuff Hedge - Who To Handcuff

This article was updated on 9/4 to account for the Jerick McKinnon and D'Onta Foreman injury updates. We have learned over time that the running back position is without question the most volatile in fantasy football. This understanding is based upon the percentage of injuries versus the other skilled positions, NFL teams increasingly using split back committees creating […]

DeVante Parker Uncertain For Start Of Season

While Miami Dolphins wide receiver Devante Parker (finger) has been feeling substantially better, there remains uncertainty as to whether he will be ready for the first or second week of the season, according to a source. Parker has been out the last three weeks with a broken middle finger. He was seen in the locker […]

Kenyan Drake Maturing, Work Ethic Improving

Miami Dolphins running back Kenyan Drake has matured significantly over the offseason and is ready to work harder than ever. As reported by the Palm Beach Post, Drake "seems friendlier, but also more serious. He comes across confidently, but it’s the tone of someone who knows what they’re doing rather than the arrogance of someone […]

Dolphins Name Both Kenyan Drake and Frank Gore Starters

The Miami Dolphins named either Kenyan Drake or Frank Gore as their starting running backs. Adam Beasley of the Miami Herald was specific in that either one of them could be the starter. It's hard to read the situation based on what the coaches and reporters are saying, but based on preseason usage and production […]

MarQueis Gray Wins Tight End Job

The Miami Dolphins have named MarQueis Gray as the starting tight end. Gray edged out rookie Mike Gesicki for the starting role. Gray is currently dealing with concussion-like symptoms and is questionable for week one. He is entering his sixth NFL season, but this will be Gray's first opportunity as a starter. He's never had […]

Dolphins Name Starting Wide Receivers

The Miami Dolphins have released their depth chart, naming Danny Amendola, Kenny Stills, and Devante Parker as their three starting wide receivers. This was largely expected, with Albert Wilson the only notable omission. Wilson and Amendola were battling for the slot receiver position, but Amendola ultimately won the job. Stills is the most exciting of […]

Dolphins Sign Brandon Bolden

The Miami Dolphins signed free-agent running back Brandon Bolden on Tuesday and cut center Travis Swanson in a corresponding move. Bolden was cut by the Patriots over the weekend after just 13 carries for 67 yards in 2017. He's mostly a special teams ace and should not be considered by fantasy owners at this time.

Fantasy Football Pop Quiz - NFC North

In an effort to write these columns before the start of the season, I thought I'd get some help on this issue. So I asked my wife, who is a big Green Bay Packers fan, what her thoughts were on the 2018 fantasy football season. As a note, my wife is a highly regarded researcher […]

Five Re-Draft Studs Who'll Be Dynasty Duds

As players get older, their value in re-draft leagues can remain high, but their value in dynasty formats starts to drop. It happens for everyone -- one day we'll be looking back on how Odell Beckham Jr. and DeAndre Hopkins aren't worth drafting in dynasty -- and it's vital that dynasty owners know when the […]

Last-Round Running Back Lottery Tickets

As draft season comes to an end, it is important to remember that there is good value available late in the drafts. Lottery ticket picks that work out often end up being difference-makers for the fantasy owners that select the aforementioned players. An area that has traditionally been hard to predict, however, is running back. […]

Mike Gesicki Ready For Starter's Role

Miami Dolphins head coach Adam Gase said on Sunday that rookie tight end Mike Gesicki is ready for a starter's role on offense. Gesicki should have a huge role in his rookie season, especially with receiver DeVante Adams injured. The long-term upside is huge, but Gesicki could also be very touchdown-dependent in 2018. Consider him […]

Tanner McEvoy Claimed by Dolphins

The Miami Dolphins have claimed wide receiver Tanner McEvoy off waivers. McEvoy was released by the Seahawks last week Wednesday and was first signed by the Saints three days later, but the Saints then cut him on Saturday. He latched onto the Dolphins and will probably begin the season on the practice squad. At 6'6" […]

Leonte Carroo Joins Practice Squad

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Leonte Carroo has joined the team's practice squad after being cut from the active roster, according to a source. Carroo has been a bust as a third-round pick in 2016, catching just 10 passes for 98 yards and one touchdown in his two seasons.

Dolphins Claim Luke Falk On Waivers

The Miami Dolphins claimed quarterback Luke Falk on waivers on Sunday. Falk was a sixth-round pick by the Titans this year but didn't make the team's final roster. With Brock Osweiler and David Fales both making the roster behind starter Ryan Tannehill, Falk could be ticketed for the practice squad.

Brock Osweiler, David Fales Both Make Dolphins 53-Man Roster

Miami Dolphins quarterbacks Brock Osweiler and David Fales have both found a spot on the 53- man roster, but head coach Adam Gase hasn't said which player is the true backup to Ryan Tannehill. After missing the entire 2017 season with a knee injury, Tannehill's health is still a concern, which is likely why Osweiler […]

Dolphins Cut Six Receivers, Going with Group of Five

The Miami Dolphins have finalized their receiving core, releasing Francis Owusu, Malcolm Lewis, Rashawn Scott, Drew Morgan, Leonte Carroo, and Isaiah Ford. Scott has been signed to the practice squad. Their receiving core will consist of Kenny Stills, Devante Parker, Danny Amendola, Albert Wilson and Jakeem Grant. Out of this group Stills is the player […]

My job is to make sure you are up to date and not reaching on certain players, so I have tracked all of the significant risers and fallers since […]

Dolphins Releasing Gavin Escobar

The Miami Dolphins are releasing tight end Gavin Escobar on Friday. Escobar was competing for a roster spot behind rookie Mike Gesicki, MarQueis Gray and AJ Derby. The former second-round pick of the Cowboys didn't play at all in the NFL in 2017.

Jason Sanders Has Won Kicking Job

Miami Dolphins place kicker Jason Sanders has won the kicking job after the team released rookie Greg Joseph, according to a source. Sanders is also a rookie and will be kicking for an offense that may struggle to move the ball with Devante Parker injured and Jarvis Landry, the NFL's leading pass catcher in 2017, […]

Brock Osweiler Tosses Pair of Touchdowns in Preseason Win

Miami Dolphins quarterback Brock Osweiler went 16-for-25 passing with 147 yards and two touchdowns to no interceptions in the Dolphins' 34-7 preseason win over the Falcons. Osweiler clearly outperformed David Fales, the other candidate for Miami's backup QB job. Osweiler has fallen a long way from the four year, $72 million dollar contract he signed […]
