BALLER MOVE: Start
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR2/WR3
ANALYSIS: Life is miserable. The sun doesn't rise anymore. The color has drained out of everything, and now everything is black and white. At least, that's the way it feels to have drafted Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill right now. Ever since lead quarterback Tua Tagovailoa's injury, rostering "Reek" has been miserable.
There's plenty of good news, though. The first is that Tagovailoa will return, and Hill will become a great fantasy asset again. Fantasy managers should be grateful because he has the blueprint of the perfect league-losing player; otherwise, he is someone you think you have to start that scores in the single digits every game.

However, you just can't not start him at this point. There's a silver lining and a light at the end of the tunnel. For one, Tyreek still has it. He won on a deep route in the Dolphins' Week 4 game against the Tennessee Titans and would've had potential long gain and touchdown if not for a huge underthrow.
Tyler Huntley had Tyreek Hill wide open on this go-route, but the ball was thrown short and outside. Missed opportunity for the Miami Dolphins.#FinsUp pic.twitter.com/TokvWmyG5o

There was another play where Hill broke free, but again, Tyler Huntley missed it, this time with an overthrow. Tua makes these plays. When he returns, it's reasonable to expect more. For now, you have to hope the new Dolphins' starter figures things out. Until then, misery.

The wide receiver position has an advantage over the running back position in PPR scoring formats, typically.

Not every WR is like this, though, […]
