Offensive Scouting Report
- QB Ryan Tannehill has been solidified as the long-term starter in Miami; keep surrounding him with talent at WR.
- HB Lamar Miller had another huge season last year, proving he could carry the load, so be sure to utilize his strengths. Use Kenyan Drake’s speed to give your team a chance to convert a short third down conversion.
- Although the Dolphins prefer a short passing game, give Kenny Stills some chances downfield each game. Jarvis Landry had a solid rookie campaign. Also, don’t forget to target TE Jordan Cameron in the red zone.
Defensive Scouting Report
- Ndamukong Suh has proven himself as part of the team and is more than capable of continuing to control the Tackle position. Not only is he just as good in the run game, but he should also be more trouble for opposing QBs.
- Your nickel LBs should be Koa Misi and Jelani Jenkins, who are both very solid in zone coverage. Both also have some nice hit power.
- The secondary is extremely solid, especially at the safety position. Adjust your coverage to help out your CBs.
SCHEDULE
Key Players
- Landry isn’t the fastest, but he is young and still extremely quick. He also has the awareness and enough raw talent to out-maneuver any matchup.
- He’s a great route runner, and when you match that with his route running, look for him on long plays.
- Suh should always be on the field. He has the stamina and toughness to play every down.
- Expect to see a large number of sacks from Suh this season, his Strength and Power Move ratings are through the roof.
- Having Tunsil on the team means you should run the ball to his side whenever you see the opportunity.
- His Run Blocking Strength and Impact Blocking rating are incredibly high. This will open up plenty of gaps, which is incredibly important this season.
- Chekwa may not have the size for most WRs in the league, but he’s fast. Take control of Chekwa because you can catch anyone if you read the play early.
- Man coverage should be the focus of Chekwa, but his speed dictates he can play any defense.
