Broncos lost starting running back Javonte Williams<\/a> to a season-ending ACL and LCL injury in Week 4. Edmonds joins a crowded backfield in Denver that includes veterans Melvin Gordon and Latavious Murray. The Broncos are ranked #22 in the NFL with a ground attack that averages only 108.4 rushing yards per game.<\/p>\nDolphins Add Another San Francisco Running Back<\/h2>\n The San Francisco 49ers acquired running back Christian McCaffrey in a trade with the Carolina Panthers a couple of weeks ago. As a result, Jeff Wilson lost his starting job with the 49ers, so they traded him to the Dolphins. The 49ers gave up a package of multiple picks to obtain McCaffrey, but they’ll get a fifth-rounder back via the Dolphins.<\/p>\n
With the 49ers this season, Wilson rushed 92 times for 468 yards and two touchdowns. He also tallied 10 receptions for 92 yards.<\/strong><\/p>\nWilson replaces Edmonds as the backup behind Mostert, who also played for the 49ers last season. The Dolphins now have two former members of the 49ers in their backfield, and they’re reunited with Mike McDaniel. McDaniel spent last season as the offensive coordinator with the 49ers before the Dolphins hired him as their new head coach.<\/p>\n
Somewhat Easy Schedule for the Dolphins<\/h2>\n The Dolphins have a favorable remaining schedule. Only three opponents in their final nine games have a winning record.<\/p>\n
The Dolphins play two more games before a scheduled bye in Week 11. They head to Chicago to play the Bears in Week 9 before they host the Cleveland Browns in Week 10. After the bye, the Dolphins host home games against the Houston Texans in Week 12, against Green Bay Packers in Week 16, and the New York Jet in Week 18.<\/p>\n
The Dolphins hit the road to play back-to-back games on the West Coast against the San Francisco 49ers and Los Angeles Rams in Week 13 and Week 14. They have divisional road games against the Buffalo Bills in Week 15 and against the New England Patriots in Week 17.<\/p>\n

The Dolphins are +3000 odds to win Super Bowl LVII, according to a recent update from DraftKings. You can back the Dolphins at +1600 odds to win the AFC championship as the fourth-highest team on the board behind the Bills, Kansas City Chiefs, and Baltimore Ravens.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
The Bills (6-1) are a huge favorite at -1200 odds to win the AFC East. The Dolphins are their closest competition on the futures board at +1000 odds. The Jets have the same record as the Dolphins at 5-3, yet they’re the long shot on the board to win the AFC East at +4000 odds. Even the New England Patriots, with a 4-4 record, have slightly better divisional odds than the Jets at +3500.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
