In Week 7, Malik Willis was the sort of fantasy asset his supporters hoped he would be this season. Willis completed 14-of-21 passes for 208 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions in the Dolphins' 28-25 win over the Jets. Willis also had 8-37-1 rushing to finish with 26 fantasy points.

In his first five starts of the season, Willis averaged 169.8 passing yards and 37.2 rushing yards, with two TD passes and two TD runs. He was QB27 in fantasy points per game through the first five weeks of the season.

Willis gets a neutral matchup against the Patriots this week, followed by appealing matchups against the Lions and Colts.

It's hard to tell what we'll get from Willis as a passer in any given week, but his rushing ability can smooth out some of the bumps he'll encounter as a passer, raising both his floor and his ceiling.
