Brian Hartline not a great choice for Week 1
Dolphins wide receiver Brian Hartline is never a particularly exciting Fantasy option despite coming off consecutive 1,000-yard seasons, and things shouldn't be much different as he gets ready to open the season in Week 1 against the Patriots.
Hartline put up pretty pedestrian numbers in two games against the Patriots a year ago, totaling 107 yards on nine catches, and he has topped eight Fantasy points in a game against the Patriots just twice in nine career games. He could have an even tougher time Sunday, given the Patriots addition of Darrelle Revis this offseason. Hartline might not be the Dolphins' top receiver, but he is more likely to line up out wide against Revis than Mike Wallace, who should be moved around the formation more.
Hartline is a fine receiver to have on your Fantasy roster for the right matchups, but he doesn't seem likely to go wild against the Patriots. Consider him just a low-end flex option for Week 1.
