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.

WR/CB Matchups to Target in DFS (Week 3)

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 […]
Kenyan Drake, DeVante Parker, Ryan Tannehill Off Injury Report
Miami Dolphins running back Kenyan Drake (abdomen), wide receiver Devante Parker (finger) and quarterback Ryan Tannehill (ankle, knee) all practiced in full on Friday and have been removed from the Week 3 injury report against the Raiders. Drake will be the starting running back and is a strong RB2 against a weak Raiders front. Tannehill […]
Kenyan Drake Facing A Soft Rush Defense In Week 3
Miami Dolphins running back Kenyan Drake is in a great spot in Week 3 against the Oakland Raiders. The Raiders have been shredded for the third most yards rushing and highest yards per carry allowed in the NFL. Oakland has felt the loss of Khalil Mack on defense, as well as the loss of Denico […]
Ryan Tannehill Has Good Matchup In Week 3
Miami Dolphins quarterback Ryan Tannehill is facing a favorable matchup in Week 3 against the Oakland Raiders. The Raiders allowed the seventh most passing yards in the NFL last season and will be without cornerback Daryl Worley (suspension) and possibly cornerback Nick Nelson (hamstring) as well. Oakland has performed better thus far in 2018, but […]
Reshad Jones Questionable For Week 3
Miami Dolphins safety Reshad Jones (shoulder) is questionable to play in Week 3 against the Raiders. Jones is one of the better IDP safeties to employ on a weekly basis, but you might need to look for other options. If he sits out, it'll be an upgrade for Raiders quarterback Derek Carr and deep-threat receiver […]

Danny Amendola Should Be Avoided
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Danny Amendola has been struggling to be the PPR monster he was in the past. Amendola has only eight catches for 58 yards this year. The yardage isn't all that concerning, but for Amendola to be a productive fantasy player, he needs more receptions. The Dolphins do have a favorable matchup […]
