Matt Waldman notes that while Malik Willis may be improving incrementally, he is not a viable fantasy asset. The Miami offense is limited by its reliance on Willis's legs, which forces routes to break away from the quarterback and hinders the production of both the running backs and the passing game.NegativeProjectionJul 13, 2026
Malik Willis' game plan with Green Bay relied heavily on misdirection with one to two reads, which is effective short-term but defenses adjust well to it; this limits check-downs and increases three-and-outs for the Miami offense.NegativeProjectionJun 1, 2026
Dolphins want to use Willis as a Jordan Love-esque player with more rushing upside but less passing upside; projects for 3,000–3,200 passing yards, 20 touchdowns, and 700–800 rushing yards; will rely on shorter passes over the middle with catch rates in the 50–60% range rather than the gaudy 10–12 yards per attempt efficiency he showed in limited games.PositiveValueNo date
Steelers QB is a more attractive late-round option than Kyler Murray; Matt Waldman is confident Willis will be the starter and is willing to gamble on his upside at a lower draft cost, making him a better value play than Murray given the uncertainty in Arizona.
