News: 2 days agoDouglas is listed as a starting wide receiver on Miami's initial depth chart headed into a Week 1 matchup against the Raiders.

Spin: Douglas is slotted in as the X receiver, alongside Jalen Tolbert at the Z and Malik Washington as the slot man for Miami. A third-round pick out of Texas Tech back in April, Douglas has been running with the first-team offense most of the summer. He logged 17 offensive snaps during the preseason, catching one of his two targets for 28 yards, before being rested for the third exhibition. This Dolphins offense projects to be a low-scoring one, and it remains to be seen if Malik Willis will be able to carry any of his pass catchers to fantasy relevance.

ESPN Fantasy Projection: Douglas was selected by the Dolphins in the third round of April's draft. Douglas is a tall, perimeter receiver with big hands and long arms who, after not seeing much work during two seasons at Florida, exploded for 60-877-6 and 54-846-7 receiving lines at Texas Tech over the last two seasons. His overall efficiency was underwhelming, including six drops and a shaky 1.81 YPRR in 2025. He impressed with a 4.39 40-yard dash at 206 pounds (111 speed score) at the combine. Douglas has a path to a large offensive role as a rookie (Malik Washington, Jalen Tolbert and fellow rookie Chris Bell are his primary competition), but life may be tough in a rebuilding Miami offense led by unproven Malik Willis. He's only worth a late flier.
