BALLER MOVE: Add in 2QB Leagues
ROSTERED: 24% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: Tua knows no defeat. Three times has he been on an NFL field, three times he's gone home with the W. Sure, he just threw a couple of passes in garbage time against the Jets, so that shouldn't count, but he won his first start a couple of weeks ago and he doubled-down on his record by defeating the Kyle Murray-led Cardinals on Sunday. So far so good for the rookie, to the surprise of no one.
A week ago Tua debuted as a starter and his performance was pretty mediocre; not going to lie about that. Tua's 12-for-22 completions only allowed him to reach 93 passing yards, and although one of those tosses turned into a TD, Tua finished as the QB28 of the week. With that first outing out of the way, though, and facing a much softer defense in Arizona's, Tua looked the part for real this time.
Tagovailoa completed 20 of his 28 attempts on Sunday, passed for 248 yards, and tossed two touchdowns to no interceptions. The most impressive thing, even more facing another similar QB, was his 35 yards on 7 carries, which for the first time shown the passing/rushing combo prowess of Tua as a quarterback. That, folks, is long-term league-winning material.
The Dolphins are already past their bye week and have the 24th, 25th, 29, and 19th worst teams at preventing fantasy points from quarterbacks on their schedule. That puts us on Week 14 already, which means you can play Tua and let him carry your team to the fantasy postseason with gusto. Must add-and-start in 2QB leagues, reasonable WW target in one-QB deeper formats, and streamer with QB1 upside in shallower leagues at least for the next month.
