Elandon Roberts Fantasy

The Miami Dolphins re-signed linebacker Elandon Roberts to a one-year, $3.25 million deal on Tuesday, according to his agent, Drew Rosenhaus. In his second season with the Dolphins last year, Roberts tallied a career-high 83 tackles (42 solo), six tackles for loss, one interception for a touchdown, four passes defensed, two forced fumbles and one sack in 17 games (15 starts). The 27-year-old is known as more of a run-stopper, so he's not attractive to fantasy managers in IDP leagues since he has only 6.5 career sacks in six NFL seasons with the Dolphins and New England Patriots. Roberts was a sixth-round selection by the Pats in 2016 out of Houston.

The Miami Dolphins re-signed linebacker Elandon Roberts to an undisclosed deal on Wednesday. Miami's linebacker position has seen some change this offseason, with Kyle Van Noy being cut and Benardrick McKinney acquired in a trade, but Roberts will return to the fold in 2021. Jerome Baker and Vince Biegel will also be returning alongside Andrew Van Ginkel. Roberts finished last year fifth on the team in tackles (61) and third in tackles for loss (eight) despite playing just 39 percent of the defensive snaps last year. He has proven to be a big asset on run defense, but Roberts hasn't shown much of a feel in pass coverage. Roberts will also be trying to return from a serious right knee injury in 2021.
