Fantasy football managers overthink just about everything. They often need a calm, measured voice of reason to remind them of what makes sense.
Take a deep breath. It is fantasy football. Make practical decisions on lineups, trades and foods for the tailgating party and things will work out. Try to enjoy the ride. You wouldn't believe the things fantasy managers overthink. Well, you're (presumably) a fantasy manager. OK, so perhaps you would.
Don't expect Tua Tagovailoa to save your fantasy team
Dolphins WR Tyreek Hill said having Tagovailoa back at practice almost made him cry. Yeah, fantasy football managers know the feeling.
A healthy Tagovailoa is great news for the Dolphins and for fantasy football, but perhaps not in the way many people realize. Yes, Tagovailoa led the NFL with 4,624 passing yards last season, and he was among the leaders with 29 touchdown passes, but his extreme lack of running production (only 172 rushing yards, 0 TD in his past 32 games) still left him on the outside looking in when it came to QB1 options. Tagovailoa, who played in all 17 games last season, finished 11th among QBs in total fantasy points, but he averaged 15.9 points per game, only 21st at the position. It was Tagovailoa's best -- and first full -- season, but let's keep proper perspective moving forward. He is not a must-play for fantasy this week.
