Patrick Laird will offer similar returns to Myles Gaskin
Miami settled on Gaskin as their lead back because he offered the majority of the playbook. And while Gaskin is the Dolphins’ best option this season, Laird is the best backup plan to that role. Laird is a capable pass catcher and Miami has used him in the 20-personnel Wildcat package and asked him to block, too. He’s tough and agile. This may not be a sexy play in fantasy football, but Laird offers Miami the best chance to keep everything else in the offense status quo without Gaskin this week.
