Let’s go. We all know Sullivan signed dynamic bridge QB Malik Willis to a three-year deal to placate the fans while the team executes a top-to-bottom roster rebuild. Regardless, it is encouraging to see Sullivan go out of his way to express confidence in the quarterback’s playmaking ability and adaptability.
Willis faces tempered fantasy football expectations after Miami jettisoned star playmakers Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle. The team will be rolling with a first-round rookie WR as well as Malik Washington, Tutu Atwell, and Jalen Tolbert. Miami will also draft a back-up caliber quarterback in 2026 with an eye toward securing a franchise QB in the 2027 NFL Draft.
Willis’ mobility and lack of weaponry will create a fantasy point-rich environment for the fifth-year signal caller. Expect a high scramble rate and numerous designed runs for the newly minted Konami QB. Willis is a strong buy in all fantasy football formats.

Miami Dolphins superstar wide receiver Tyreek Hill is set to miss the rest of the 2025 season with a torn ACL and several other torn ligaments in his knee. The Dolphins will be without their top target which will require other talent to step up.
The logical expectation is that receiver Jaylen Waddle will take over the reins as the top target in the offense along with De’Von Achane who is a receiving threat out of the backfield. Of note, Darren Waller had a productive night versus the Jets with a 3-28-2 receiving line. Malik Washington figures to gain snap share from the slot as well.
Waddle has scored 13.2 fantasy points per game which ranks 24th. He is in line to become a higher end WR2 in fantasy football. Achane’s 25% target share is No.2 and will most assuredly go up which will help him return top-5 RB value the rest of the season.
