All Mattek Fantasy Football insights about Malik Willis
PositiveValueAug 21, 2026
Malik Willis is a high-upside, essentially free draft target. If he secures a starting role and maintains a rushing floor of 10 carries per game, he offers elite fantasy potential comparable to the archetypes of Justin Fields, Trey Lance, and Anthony Richardson. Mattek identifies him as one of seven essential 'Ball Knower' draft targets.PositiveValueAug 17, 2026
Malik Willis looked hyper-competent in the Green Bay offense, leading to a potential rise in ADP; he is now preferred over Tyler Shough in quarterback rankings.PositiveMatchupJul 2, 2026
Dolphins quarterback whose ground-and-pound style makes Ollie Gordon a better stylistic fit than Devon Achane.PositiveBreakoutJun 29, 2026
Malik Willis is going to be one of the easiest winning picks in fantasy football if the Dolphins can improve from the 32nd best offense to the 27th best offense; he would also be heavily targeted in superflex.PositiveSleeperJun 29, 2026
Malik Willis is a great target because he will run frequently, and despite the Dolphins having a horrendous passing game with no NFL-capable wide receivers, his rushing floor will stay quite high.PositiveBreakoutJun 29, 2026
Willis is a great example of a rushing QB who could become a top-10 fantasy QB if he gets significant rushing volume (11+ carries per game) before potentially being benched.PositiveRoleJun 23, 2026
Malik Willis is drafted as the primary quarterback in the balanced build roster construction.NegativeProjectionJun 23, 2026
The Dolphins' weak offensive weapons and overall offensive struggles may prevent Willis from reaching top 12 quarterback status despite high rushing volume.PositiveProjectionJun 23, 2026
Of all quarterbacks with over 100 rush attempts in the last 15 NFL seasons, 94% finish as a top 12 quarterback in fantasy football, suggesting Willis has significant upside if he maintains high rushing volume.NegativeProjectionJun 23, 2026
Analyst acknowledges that the Dolphins offense is so weak that even with rushing volume, Malik Willis may not be able to finish as a top-12 quarterback due to lack of quality wide receivers.PositiveProjectionJun 23, 2026
Analyst is taking Malik Willis as a late-round quarterback, viewing him as a potential answer similar to Trey Lance and Justin Fields, with the belief that quarterbacks with over 100 rush attempts have a 94% chance of finishing as top-12 fantasy quarterbacks.PositiveSleeperMay 29, 2026
The source identifies Willis as a legitimate fantasy football sleeper, noting that quarterbacks who run 80+ times per season consistently finish as top-12 quarterbacks. Willis is expected to run significantly, and the source believes he will 'easily beat out his ADP.' Willis is positioned as the ideal QB2 in redraft and all formats, with strong appeal in superflex and dynasty. The source states 'Of this tier, he would be my top buy,' citing the bias against mobile QBs (Justin Fields, Trey Lance, Anthony Richardson) has caused the market to undervalue Willis.PositiveProjectionNo date
Willis is the source's primary target in the D tier because over the most recent 15 years, every quarterback outside of two guys who have gotten to 100 rushing attempts have finished as top-10 fantasy quarterbacks. The source is very certain Willis will get at least 100 rushing attempts assuming he starts for the entire season. Despite the Eagles having potentially the worst skill position group in the entire NFL (A.J. Brown, Jaylen Tolbert, Chris Bell coming off ACL injury, Greg Doolsich projected to lead in receptions), Willis could score double-digit rushing touchdowns this upcoming year because of how many opportunities he will have to run the ball.
