Dolphins' De'Von Achane has 'earned' a bigger workload after Week 3 breakout
What it means:
Adam Schefter reports that the Miami Dolphins are expected to "use [De'Von Achane] more" after his impressive Week 3 performance.
Schefter's post goes on to say that the Dolphins still like the rest of their backs, so we'll have to wait and see how they actually allocate their running back opportunities this weekend. Achane started the season well behind teammates like Raheem Mostert, Salvon Ahmed, and Jeff Wilson, but it's tough to see them leaving Achane on the bench after his blowup Week 3 performance.
For Week 4 against the Buffalo Bills, our models project Achane for 9.8 fantasy points with, 40.8 rushing yards, 9.8 receiving yards, and 0.4 touchdowns from scrimmage. He has a $6,400 salary on FanDuel.
Jaylen Waddle
WR / Miami Dolphins
Jaylen Waddle (concussion) good to go for Dolphins for Week 4
What it means:
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle has cleared the league's concussion protocols ahead of their Week 4 game against the Buffalo Bills.
Waddle missed Miami's insane 70-point Week 3 outing while recovering from a head injury, but the talented third-year wide out should be back on the field for the team's highly-anticipated game against the Bills this weekend. He is the WR10 in numberFire's Week 4 wide receiver rankings for fantasy.
Our models have Waddle projected for 5 catches, 80.8 yards, and 0.4 touchdowns against the Bills this weekend, which would be good for 13.2 FanDuel points. He has a $7,400 salary on FanDuel and is set to play a huge role in the game with the highest projected points total (53.5) of the weekend.

Dolphins' Jaylen Waddle (concussion) full participant at practice on Wednesday
What it means:
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle (concussion) will be a full participant at Wednesday's practice.
Waddle missed Week 3's win over Denver due to a concussion but is trending in the right direction heading into Week 4. Barring a setback, Waddle appears likely to be available to face the Buffalo Bills on Sunday.
The Dolphins are 3.0-point underdogs against Buffalo in Week 4. Their implied team total of 25.25 points is the fourth-highest team total on Sunday's main slate, according to numberFire's DFS Heat Map.
Tyreek Hill
WR / Miami Dolphins
Tyreek Hill goes for 157, touchdown in Dolphins' Week 3 victory
What it means:
Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill kept up his torrid start to the season in Week 3 against the Denver Broncos.
The Dolphins cannot be stopped, and certainly not by the Broncos defense (or lack thereof). Miami exploded for 70 points on Sunday, the most in an NFL game since 1966. A huge part of that was Hill, and while he didn't play late after the backups went in, that didn't stop him from coming up big for fantasy managers.
Hill turned 11 targets into 9 catches for 157 yards and a touchdown, finishing with 26.2 FanDuel points.
Raheem Mostert
RB / Miami Dolphins
Raheem Mostert finds enzone 4 times for Dolphins in Week 3
What it means:
Miami Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert continued his dominant season in the team's Week 3 win over the Denver Broncos.
Due to the nature of Sunday's victory - a 70-20 drubbing of Sean Payton's squad - Mostert ceeded some work to his fellow running backs. However, that didn't stop the veteran from turning 20 touches into 4 touchdowns, putting up another big game for fantasy managers.
Mostert turned 13 carries into 82 yards and 3 touchdowns Sunday. He also brought in all 7 of his targets, racking up 60 yards and another score. On the day, he finished with 41.7 FanDuel points.
De'Von Achane
RB / Miami Dolphins
De'Von Achane scores 4 touchdowns in Dolphins' offensive explosion
What it means:
Miami Dolphins running back De'Von Achane broke out in the team's Week 3 game against the Denver Broncos.
Achane started his NFL career by being inactive in Week 1, and he had just two touches the following game. in Miami's bonkers 70-20 win in Week 3, the Texas A&M product put the NFL on ntice. He had 22 touches for a preposterous amount of yardage, scoring a quartet of touchdowns in the process.
On 18 carries, Achane racked up 203 yards and 2 touchdowns. He also brought in all 4 of his targets, putting up 30 yards and an additional 2 scores. On the day, he finished with 49.3 FanDuel points.
