Dolphins Breakdown

The Dolphins are on a four-game winning streak and looking to extend it here! Tua Tagovailoa is an intriguing option on the slate due to his recent performances. This matchup is a great one for him against a vulnerable Steelers defense. The running back situation is interesting here due to the injury De'Von Achane sustained. De'Von Achane is active and I still don't like him entirely in this spot against the Steelers rush defense. Ollie Gordon is the goal-line running back, but hard to trust him. At the wide receiver spot, Jaylen Waddle would be the main stacking partner I would want to pair with Tua Tagovailoa. Malik Washington has seen consistent targets, but yardage is few and far between. Nick Westbrook-Ikhine and Cedrick Wilson round out the snaps, but production is lacking hugely. At the tight end spot, Darren Waller has been up and down this season. Regarding him, I like him as a value option on the DraftKings slate. Greg Dulcich is seeing great production even with Darren Waller healthy, which is making him an excellent value piece.

Steelers Breakdown

The Steelers are coming off a win and hoping to ruin the Dolphins' hopes of extending their winning streak. At the quarterback spot, Aaron Rodgers is hard to understand due to his fantasy production being all over the board. I am leaning towards Tua Tagovailoa over him in this matchup. At the running back spot, Jaylen Warren and Kenneth Gainwell are splitting snaps. It is hard to determine which running back will have the better fantasy output due to this. I am leaning towards Kenneth Gainwell due to the cheaper price tag on DraftKings. Onto the wide receivers, DK Metcalf is the highest-priced option. He has been boom or bust this season. In regard to this matchup, I am expecting a bust. There is a huge drop-off in pricing on DraftKings to the next receiver, which is Calvin Austin. Adam Thielen saw more snaps than Calvin Austin in the last game, even though he just signed with the team. Marquez Valdes-Scantling is seeing limited snaps and is overpriced for his role. I am leaning towards Adam Thielen as the option to go to based on his increased snap count, which should go up again in this game. At the tight end spot, there is a three-headed monster. Pat Freiermuth saw the most snaps in the last game. Darnell Washington is active coming into this game. Jonnu Smith is seeing snaps as well. It is hard to pinpoint which tight end would have a good game.
