Douglas has emerged as perhaps the No. 1 target in Miami, but in an offense that sits near the basement in passing attempts and passing TDs (six), he's an unappealing flex -- especially this week with Kyle McCord under center and going against a Colts defense that has allowed the fifth-fewest WR catches.

Waddle's target share doesn't translate to fantasy value in pass-starved Dolphins offense.

Despite emerging as perhaps the No. 1 target in Miami with 79% snap rate and 22% target share over five active weeks, Waddle remains an unappealing flex option in an offense sitting near the basement in passing attempts and passing TDs (six). Inconsistent usage—six-plus targets in three games but exactly three in the other two—makes him tough to count on; he has fallen short of 8.5 fantasy points in two of his last three games with fewer than 45 yards in both. This week against the Colts (fifth-fewest WR catches allowed) with Kyle McCord under center further dampens his appeal.
