Busts on the Miami Dolphins
- WR Tyreek Hill - 5 votes
- WR Jaylen Waddle - 4 votes
- LB Tyrel Dodson - 2 votes
- TE Jonnu Smith - 2 votes
- QB Tua Tagovailoa - 1 vote
Reasons WR Tyreek Hill Could Be a Bust
- Maurile Tremblay: His ADP assumes WR1 numbers, but age-31 speed decline plus offseason drama create a steep downside at cost.
- Hutchinson Brown: There were signs last season that the end of elite Tyreek Hill is coming. I do not want to get caught holding the bag.
- Jeff Bell: Hill played all 17 games but was WR41 in PPG after Week 1.
- Ben Cummins: Hill is 31 years old this season after his performance declined in 2024. His attitude is always a concern, especially on a team that projects to perform poorly.
- Craig Lakins: Hill finally showed some age last season. There's still some gas left in the tank, but I wouldn't pick up where he's going right now.
