Curtis Weaver Fantasy Stats

The Miami Dolphins signed defensive ends Curtis Weaver and Jason Strowbridge to four-year deals. Both players were fifth-round picks during the 2020 NFL Draft. Weaver finished the 2019 season with 52 total tackles, 19.5 tackles for loss, and 13.5 sacks through 14 games. His 34 career sacks ranks second in school history, but he may have broken it if he stayed for one more season. Strowbridge recorded 44 total tackles, six tackles for loss, and 2.5 sacks during his senior year at North Carolina. Neither player is expected to be a starter in Miami this season. However, both players have decent potential and are nice developmental pieces for the future.

The Miami Dolphins selected Boise State defensive end Curtis Weaver with the No. 164 overall pick in the fifth round of the NFL Draft. Weaver lacks first-step quickness and closing speed as a pass-rusher, but he uses his hands effectively and is disruptive in the running game as well. The 6-foot-2, 265-pounder, like most picks at this stage on defense, is inconsistent with his pad level, so he'll need to clean that up in the NFL if he wants to keep a roster spot with Miami. But he could develop into an underrated pass-rusher in Miami. They certainly need it after finishing last in sacks in 2019 as a team.
