BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues
OWNED IN: 0% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Miami Dolphins running back Myles Gaskin made the most of his opportunities in Week 15 against the Giants. He rushed the ball nine times for 43 yards and added two catches for 29 yards. Meanwhile, the team's No. 1 running back Patrick Laird had 12 carries for 46 yards and two catches for eight yards.
The fact that Gaskin's workload was comparable to Laird's in Week 15 is a good sign for Gaskin going forward and the fact that he averaged sufficiently more yards per touch than Laird is additional good news.
Next week, Gaskin and the Dolphins have a very favorable matchup against the Bengals. While it might be tough for you to trust a Dolphins running back in your championship week, especially the team's No. 2 back, Gaskin could end up delivering solid flex or RB3 value in deep leagues. If he can get double-digit touches once again next week, he could deliver around 80 yards with a chance to score. Add him in leagues of 12 or more teams and keep him in mind as a potential sneaky starter.
