Gaudy Predictions for DeVante Parker?

Devante Parker has sky expectations in 2016.

DeVante Parker has sky high expectations.


2016 could be a showcase year for DeVante Parker.

DeVante Parker was the 14th overall pick in the 2015 draft and was one of the front office’s top targets. Big things were expected from Parker. However, his Rookie campaign was derailed early because he underwent foot surgery. The procedure was done with eyes on the future to avoid future ankle problems. The future is now here, and this is the year Parker needs to show he was the right pick.

Parker was parked on the trainers table for most of the season. It was not until the 9th game of the season, when Rishard Matthews suffered a season ending injury, that the coaches finally took the bubble wrap off of Parker and allowed him to have a large part in the offense. In the final 6 games of the season, Parker was able to add 22 receptions for 445 receiving yards and 3 touchdowns. Most sports betting fans would agree that Parker only got better as the season wore on and even put in his 2 best games as a pro during the last 2 games of the season with a combined stat line of 9 receptions, 199 yards and 1 touchdown.

For arguments sake, if we wanted to extrapolate Parker’s final 6 game numbers for an entire 16 game NFL season he would have had 60 receptions for 1,200 receiving yards and 8 touchdowns. Sure, averaging numbers is not an exact science and doesn’t account for a player to have some bad games.

But, baring any injuries, Parker will have a full mini camp and preseason to practice and continue to develop a better chemistry with Tannehill. This in itself should only help Parker to become a more productive player in 2016. Considering all that Parker went through as a rookie and was still able to prove himself, I believe that Parker is set up perfectly to have a real breakout season.

At 6’3”, DeVante Parker is a huge Redzone target.

If Parker were to reach 1,200 that would have ranked him as the 12 best receiver in terms of yards in the entire NFL. While I don’t think 2016 will end with Parker being considered elite, I do see him getting to the 1,000 yard mark this season, and I also believe he can average 5 receptions a game, which would be 80 receptions for the season. In terms of touchdowns, he is a very large Redzone target at 6’3” 218 and has the rare ability to make plays on jump balls, so I expect him to have quite a few chance to score touchdowns – my over under is 10. What are the rest of the Miami Dolphins News fans thoughts about what kind of season DeVante Parker is going to have?

    Hello

    FinFans

    We are hoping that the Fins will make the play offs etc. Here’s the BUT! 6 Wins and 10 Losses last season. The QB has not put this team on his back yet! and to be honest about it I don’t believed that he can! Other words When a team is playing the PAT’s the game is not over with until the clock runs out! Everyone knows they will come back and win the game on you. Back in the Day El Way had that same reputation to come back and win the game. This is the questions! QB if injured/performance what are the fins plans to go forward? other than having their heads in the sand?

  • Dunner

    I’m not saying said stats will equate to wins, however; If Tanny has those kind of #’s and the defense is in top 10 in sacks, history says those teams make the playoffs 90% of the time. That is a high probability. Keeping fingers crossed for each.

    Is that picture a Patriots starting CB Logan Ryans? A projected starting CB for 2016 season? Parker clearly did and will have an advantage over Ryans in 2016 should the Pats try and match Ryans against Parker again this season. Another positive sign!!! 🙂

      This season reminds me of a German sports car. If all the “Ifs” are a go, this season will be very good…if even a few misfire, we could be stuck on the side of the road. It will be interesting.

      • Dunner

        Ha Ha! I like the rum and cokes thinker. I do see more than 5 wins. If you ask yourself, “Self, are we better this year than last year, honestly”? Lets start at the top = Head coach, even though Gase has never lead a minute as a Head Coach, I think we all agree that he will be better than any HC we have had in quite a while. Box #1 “check”. Offensively are we better = may miss Miller (RB), Carroo will be able to replace Mathews and we will have Parker from the start, our O-Line will be MUCH MUCH better, QB play should be as good if not better, Box #2 “CHECK”. Defensively are we better = (to me this one is easy) D-Line = Williams will be able to duplicate what OV offered and more at least in the short term, Suh will be better in year 2, especially under a new DC, LBers = only change as of now is Kiko, if Kiko stays healthy he will make a huge difference as the “Mike”, and here we go again, the wild card could be Jordan, he could be huge upgrade at “Sam” and Jenkins can play his natural “Will”, Secondary = Grimes was decent but his ability was diminishing right before our eyes, replaced by a younger, bigger Maxwell, the #2 CB was a revolving door, Howard is expected to step right in and solidify that position, Jones is Jones and Isa is a huge upgrade over Thomas (Per Pro Football Focus: from week 10 on Isa was rated as the top Safety in the league), Box #3 “Check”. All three boxes checked.

        So to me this team has improved dramatically at all levels. Will that lead to wins? Is the division better than last year, Bills = Should Be, Pats = No, Jets = No. So theoretically the off season make over should show results in the win column. 🙂

    …I’m sticking with 5-11 …won’t dispute the fantasy numbers, the pass offense should certainly be improved …but I still don’t see a solid run game with the RBs on the roster …I think we’re going to miss Miller …and the opponents will be able to game plan against another pass oriented fins offense …not that Gase won’t try to run it, he just won’t have the horses to be successful at it, even with a much improved OL

    …hope I’m wrong …was not impressed by Ajayi last year and don’t see much breakout threat in Drake …of course, they could still bring in another RB …certainly have the cap to do so, but the problem is finding a good, healthy one this late in the off-season

    …agree that Parker showed a lot of potential late last season …we may have the best WR set in the AFC this year …and while I expect Tannehill to put up good numbers, unless Gase finds a run game, I don’t see where the wins come from …its a tough schedule, eh

      I’m 2 rum and cokes in, so I’m feeling positive. Last season, Ajayi had to run inside with little blocking. The inside game and this year the 1 cut and cut back lanes on the one stretch will play to his strength. Also, I see if Gase is as competent as billed, Miami will stress most teams depth with it WR/Rb core. I think this team has been under utilized for so long that simply competent coaching would add “w’s”. I will not put my stake in the ground on a win total yet, till I see some action, but I see more than 5 wins.

          I agree they need to be consistent and win most of what they should and grab a couple they shouldn’t. It will take an excellent season by Gase to do this. If he manages it, we could be sitting pretty as far as a coach!

  • Dunner

    1000 yards, 80 receptions, and 10 TDs. Seems reasonable for Parker for sure. Add that to Laundry’s 90 receptions, 1200 yards, 9 TDs, along with Stills/Carroo’s 70 receptions, 800 yards, 8 TDs, TE’s & RB’s 60 receptions, 800 yards, 7 TDs and Ryan Tannehill has another 4000+ yards along with 34 TDs. I would take that. With Gases’ knowledge/reputation all the #s could be increased a bit more, especially the TEs/RBs.

    So there you have it, Tannehill’s “prove it” year is accomplished (minimal INTs of corse).

    Now if the defense can finish in the top 10 in Sacks we are on our way to the playoffs. 9 of the top 10 teams that finished in the top 10 in sacks went to the playoffs last year. 9 out of 10 in the playoffs.

    Rest well Fin Fans, blue sky’s are just ahead!!! 🙂

      I think T-Hill will have a stellar year, honestly. But, I can not vouch for his crunch time performance. I think he will power a fairly high power O this season, if Gase is as good as we are being led to believe. That If is a big one…maybe the biggest and most crucial if next to T-Hill’s performance.
