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 […]

Wide Receiver Depth Chart Analysis - Week 3

It was another interesting week of games and news in the NFL, which has resulted in the shakeup of several wide receiver depth charts around the league. Injuries in Philadelphia and the trade of Josh Gordon were the main movements this week and will be featured in the article. However, there are also several other […]

Week 3 DFS GPP Stacks For FanDuel And DraftKings

Hey there RotoBallers! After another high-scoring slate of games in Week 2, you are probably looking forward to getting some lineups set for Week 3. NFL offenses have been on fire through the first two weeks of the season, especially passing offenses. This makes stacking a quarterback with his top passing game target a must […]

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 […]

Frank Gore An Option For Week 3

Miami Dolphins running back Frank Gore has continued to show that he is a viable fantasy option even though he has running back Kenyan Drake taking the majority of touches. Gore had nine carries in both of the first two weeks and it is reasonable to believe that he will continue to receive that many, […]

Dolphins Non-Committal On DeVante Parker

Miami Dolphins head coach Adam Gase remains non-committal on whether wide receiver Devante Parker (finger) will make his season debut against the Raiders in Week 3. Parker has been practicing in full this week and looks more comfortable catching passes, but Miami may play it cautious and hold him out another week. Even if he […]

DeVante Parker More Comfortable In Practice

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Devante Parker (finger) looks much more comfortable catching passes in practice this week. Parker was a full participant in practice on Wednesday and looks to be ready to make his season debut in Week 3 against the Raiders. It's not a lock yet, though, and Parker will be much too risky […]

Reshad Jones Misses Practice Wednesday

Miami Dolphins safety Reshad Jones (shoulder) didn't practice on Wednesday, but head coach Adam Gase said Jones is day-to-day. Jones has six tackles and two interceptions on the season and is a top IDP safety when he's healthy. His absence would be an upgrade to Raiders quarterback Derek Carr and the deep passing game, including […]

Kenyan Drake, DeVante Parker, Ryan Tannehill Practice In Full

Miami Dolphins running back Kenyan Drake (abdomen), wide receiver Devante Parker (finger) and quarterback Ryan Tannehill (ankle, knee) all practiced in full on Wednesday. Parker was limited last week but didn't play for the second straight week. It's already looking like he's primed to make his season debut in Week 3 against the Raiders, which […]

Mike Gesicki Pleased With Early-Season Role

Miami Dolphins rookie tight end Mike Gesicki says that he is pleased with his role over the first two games of the season. The rookie has only one catch for 11 yards so far in the 2018 campaign but has proven himself as an excellent blocker. Ironically, Gesicki was a terrible blocker at Penn State […]

Week 3 Wide Receivers - Waiver Wire Pickups and Adds

It’s time to start prepping for Week 3 waiver wire additions and I have you covered for wide receivers. As I was looking up players to add for this article, I was shocked to see some of the names that are still not at least 50% owned in fantasy leagues. A couple of them will […]

Week 3 Quarterbacks - Waiver Wire Pickups and Adds

We had another wild and woolly week of action in the NFL, and some big quarterback performances from unlikely sources once again in Week 2. Many owners prefer to set and forget at quarterback, but for those of us that like to play the streaming game we've got to be on top of matchups every […]

Waiver Wire Express - Week 3 Lightning Round

There's always some degree of insanity at the outset of a new football season, but 2018 feels like quite the beast in this regard. We've got players being thrust into the spotlight due to injuries and sheer force of will -- some are new names, some very familiar -- but how can you keep up […]

The Cut List - Players on the Chopping Block (Week 3)

This is your weekly list of players to drop. I will do my best to limit this list to injured players and players you might consider holding. If you roster pure handcuffs or backups, obviously you can let them go at any time. The players on this list will, ideally, be guys that aren't clearly […]

Blake Bortles (QB, JAC) - Week 3 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues OWNED IN: 28% of Leagues ANALYSIS: Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Blake Bortles was impressive in Jacksonville’s 31-20 win over the Patriots on Sunday, throwing for 377 yards and four touchdowns. It's one of the best games Bortles has ever played in the NFL. This was also a coming out game […]

DeVante Parker Was Ready To Go For Week 2

Miami Dolphins wide receiver DeVante Parker (finger) said that he was ready to go for the Dolphins Week 2 matchup against the New York Jets and was unsure why he was inactive. Earlier this week, head coach Adam Gase also mentioned that Parker was not having any issues catching balls at practice on Thursday or […]

A.J. Derby Catches Touchdown In Week 2

Miami Dolphins tight end A.J. Derby caught one pass for 19 yards and a touchdown in the Dolphins 20-12 win over the Jets in Week 2. Derby had only two targets in this one, but made his only catch count. With MarQueis Gray (achilles) out for the season Derby could emerge as the Dolphins number […]

Kenny Stills Only Catches Two Passes In Week 2

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Kenny Stills caught two passes for 17 yards in the Dolphins' 20-12 win over the Jets in Week 2. This production is quite a letdown given his 106-yard, two touchdown performance in Week 1. That is the nature of a player like Stills, who epitomizes the term boom-or-bust. The Dolphins jumped […]

Danny Amendola Catches Four Passes In Week 2

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Danny Amendola caught four passes for 32 yards in the Dolphins 20-12 win over the Jets in Week 2. Amendola left the game briefly to be evaluated for a concussion but returned after being cleared from concussion protocol. Amendola only had four targets in this one as the Dolphins only threw […]

Albert Wilson Catches Touchdown In Week 2 Victory

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Albert Wilson caught three passes for 37 yards and a touchdown in the Dolphins' 20-12 win over the Jets in Week 2. Wilson led the Dolphins in targets with five this week. Danny Amendola missed a portion of the game after being evaluated for a concussion which may have contributed to […]

Frank Gore Tallies 44 Total Yards In Week 2

Miami Dolphins running back Frank Gore rushed nine times for 25 yards and caught one pass for 19 yards in the Dolphins' 20-12 win over the Jets in Week 2. Gore was largely ineffective outside of catching that 19-yard pass. He did pass Curtis Martin to become fourth all-time in rushing yards, but that tells […]

Kenyan Drake Tallies 70 Total Yards In Week 2

Miami Dolphins running back Kenyan Drake rushed 11 times for 53 yards and a touchdown and caught four passes for 17 yards in the Dolphins 20-12 win over the Jets on Sunday. Drake out-touched Frank Gore 15 to 11 and out-gained him for 70 yards compared to Gore's 44. Drake is on the strong side […]
