The Miami Dolphins have been the most disappointing team of the 2015 NFL season. This was a team that was expected to make major strides on both sides of the ball after bringing in a slew of new players that were assumed to be upgrades.
Lamar Miller, one of the constants in Miami over the last few years, was poised to repeat as a top-12 fantasy back but has since been brought way down thanks to an underperforming offense. Here's a quick glance at his rushing totals over the first four games of the season: 13 for 53, 10 for 14, 7 for 38, and 7 for 26. Aside from the fact that his production is lacking, the Dolphins aren't even running the ball all that frequently.
The difference between Lamar Miller and other running backs on the list this week is that Miami made a coaching change on Monday that could end up netting us a more balanced offense. Besides, it's not like Ryan Tannehill is out there putting up monster numbers. If the Dolphins know what's good for them, they should start to lean on Miller a bit more going forward in the hopes of getting this offense back on track. Miami does have the added benefit of making a coaching change during a bye week so that gives them two whole weeks to adjust to whatever changes new head coach Dan Campbell has in store.
There isn't a single Miami Dolphin I'd feel confident starting until we see some production so it's going to have to come down to your personal team depth as far as using Miller is concerned. They face a middle-of-the-pack Tennessee team after the bye, a game in which he could end up being serviceable. I'm not panicking just yet but an eyebrow is certainly raised.
