Sammy

Morris

Morris isn’t healthy enough to play tailback right now. It’s questionable whether he’ll have even a little fantasy value this season.

Both Morris and Travis Minor are out for week one, meaning Leonard Henry may be called up from the practice squad. Lamar Gordon should get a ton of carries.

The converted fullback will be used in short-yardage situations for the Dolphins. He could steal a handful of touchdowns from Lamar Gordon.

“In just talking to Sammy, it has been such a long time since he has carried the ball much,” coach Dave Wannstedt said. Some Dolphins staffers believe Morris could be a short-term solution as a starter, but we’d guess they’ll make a trade if it comes to that.

An amazing run for Morris, who started Dolphins camp as the team’s fullback. He may not be worth starting, but he’s certainly worth a roster spot in all leagues. Once again, grab him if available. And don’t expect him to keep his starting job for too long.

He will be part of committee including Leonard Henry and Travis Minor. Morris is the safest fantasy bet, because he’s likely to get the goal-line carries.

It’s hard to imagine Morris being a fantasy stud behind that O-line, but he’s worth owning in most leagues. Grab him if he’s still available.

Miami would like to use Travis Minor as a change-of-pace back, a role he is more suited for. Morris, who was supposed to be a fullback this season, has the style, but not the skill to fit Miami’s attack. Still, we’d recommend drafting Morris or picking him up in most leagues.

They’ll probably have to with starter Rob Konrad injured. Morris’ minimal fantasy value is shrinking.

It’s Morris, Leonard Henry, or Brock Forsey. “You know what, the running back thing, I don’t know. I really don’t know at this point. We’re going to play all three of them. We’ll see how Sammy Morris is,” Wannstedt said. Morris is only worth owning in extremely deep leagues.
