Re: Jennings to MIA; 2 yrs $8m
And they claim they're still looking to draft another receiver in the first-round. Their commitment to giving Tannehill plenty of weapons is great for him. Seems like a recommended dynasty buy right now.
Not so great for Landry's volume-reliant role (Jennings will earn more targets than Hartline did), and possibly Stills depending on who falls to the Dolphins at 1.14, since it could mean Stills is actually the #2 of the future, not the #1.
@OP
I don't know that Jennings is quite as washed up as popular opinion suggests. I think it's plausible that he could surprise a bit this year, now that's he's back in an offense that actually throws the ball 575+ times in a season. Also being reunited with his old buddy Philbin can't hurt.
Ostensibly he's been signed to man the outside opposite Stills, but his game has overlap with Landry's, so if Landry gets injured, Jennings could take over the high-volume slot role. Beyond that, Jennings' 2015 projection will depend on the rookie the Fins draft in round 1, if he is indeed a receiver. If it happens, Jennings might lose some of his snaps to the developing rookie.

Re: Jennings to MIA; 2 yrs $8m
A safe depth signing for Miami, although they paid a bit much. I agree a somewhat significant rookie will/should be drafted. Jennings is a good character and quality teammate. He may fill many different roles this year and on some weeks be a good play. So, yes, a good bye week fill in and possibly more.

Re: Jennings to MIA; 2 yrs $8m
Pretty much... Landry will still get his, but the 100 catches some were predicting for him seems pretty unlikely now with Stills, Jennings, and Cameron there. Not like that is an all-pro group of receivers but it's better than what they had last year. I would imagine they try to run the ball a bit more with Miller than they did last year.ninotoreS wrote: Not so great for Landry's volume-reliant role

Re: Jennings to MIA; 2 yrs $8m
I had Rishard Matthews and a Rookie pencilled in for 70 catches so there are receptions available in addition to those of Stills and Landry. He'll probably be the starter in 2 WR sets (although I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that Miami use a lot of 11 personal so he should be on the field a lot regardless) so Jennings could be productive. Although it should be noted that Brian Hartline had more snaps then Landry last season, but only had 39 catches! As for Landry, expecting 100 catches is expecting him to be in the top 5 receiving WRs in the league, which is bullish to say the least. I do however expect his yards per catch to increase from his measly 9.0 in 2015.
I'd also be interested in how the deal in structured. The Dolphins have no need to spend cash to reach the cash floor so the contract would be indicative as to whether they see this as a one year rental or not.

Re: Jennings to MIA; 2 yrs $8m
If the phins draft a wr in the 1st I would say he is next to worthless that said I think they go corner and draft a wr in the 2nd or 3rd and that may net jennings a 60 catch 740 yard 3 td season and then they move on from him next year. I would give up much to get him and it wouldn't take much for me to move him if I already owned him.

Re: Jennings to MIA; 2 yrs $8m
You know... this thread got me looking a bit at Jennings' 2014 tape.
It's actually better than I expected it to be.
Still has the same nice hands. I'm still seeing a veteran's route savvy, and regular separation. And he doesn't look that slow yet (slower compared to his prime, definitely, but relatively speaking he's still moving pretty well).
I think I'm liking Jennings more and more as a sleeper fantasy WR3 in 2015. Something like 80-950-8 might not be crazy. If the owner in my league cuts him for the rookie-draft, I might take a flier on him.

Re: Jennings to MIA; 2 yrs $8m
Great bit of convo all around fellas!
I have him currently as my WR 6-8; so I'm pleased enough with the landing spot that I think he at least retains a similar value as he had in MIN; even if that value isn't much. Perhaps I can use him on a bye week once or twice; perhaps he might surprise and be more useful; perhaps as a throw-in chip on some other deal once the season is underway.
Certainly I see MIA as a better landing spot than somewhere like OAK, BUF, NYJ, KC, etc. Those places would likely have made him flat-out droppable.

Re: Jennings to MIA; 2 yrs $8m
He's a guy I'd pick up on the cheap, but wouldn't count on him as more then a bye week fillin or WR 4. Temper expectations and he'll be fine for many teams. I don't expect much but yea, I'd certainly take a flyer if he was really cheap, certainly if someone actually just cut him which I double would happen.

Re: Jennings to MIA; 2 yrs $8m
He was sitting on waivers and I picked him up as soon as his signing was reported. He is nothing but insurance for me (WR6) and thats with Gordon on suspension. Just read that his contract came with a decent signing bonus and that it is not one you give a situational player. Does this mean Miami goes in a different direction round 1? If so, I give him a another bump.
Re: Jennings to MIA; 2 yrs $8m
As a lifelong Dolphins fan (please hold the jokes), I love this signing more from a fan standpoint than from a fantasy standpoint. Great to have a solid veteran presence for that young group of receivers and Tannehill.
I think Jennings may turn into a favorite 3rd down and red zone target for Tannehill. He's always had a nose for the end zone.

Re: Jennings to MIA; 2 yrs $8m
Kind of reiterating what people have said here.
I don't think he's done. He got a reasonable contract into a situation that he's familiar with (Philbin was his OC in GB). He's definitely a better fit on a contender's roster for bye weeks/spot starts than upside guys. I'd rather cut a guy like, I don't know, a Stedman Bailey, who is ranked 10 spots above him in the rankings. Players go down all the time, and you can't schedule injuries around your bye weeks. You need productive depth like this in-season instead of having a Stedman Bailey put up a goose egg.
I wouldn't trade a late second for Jennings, but he's got a place on a fantasy roster.
