The NFL regular season is just around the corner, which means fantasy drafts are in full swing. The Miami Dolphins have several skill players of interest to potential fantasy owners.
Here is a look at Miami's starting tight end:
ESPN Fantasy Projection: 47.8 receptions, 577.7 yards, 4.1 touchdowns
Over or under: This is a challenging projection. Cameron easily surpassed these numbers in the past (see 2013), but he has yet to find his footing in Miami. Cameron appeared out of sorts most of last season and hasn't made much of an impact in the spring or in training camp. The Dolphins keep waiting for things to click. I must go under based on what I've seen thus far. Cameron may eventually get things going, but until that happens it's hard to predict him catching nearly 50 passes, especially with other talented receivers in Miami's offense such as Jarvis Landry and DeVante Parker.
Who else could see time: Dion Sims is primarily a blocking tight end who does his job well. He is an average receiving tight end but can fill that role in a pinch. The Dolphins also drafted seventh-round pick Thomas Duarte from UCLA. He caught a touchdown pass in Miami's preseason opener but still has a lot to learn and adjust to with the speed of the NFL game.
