Fantasy: Knowshon Moreno is still pretty good (even without Peyton Manning)

Fantasy: Knowshon Moreno is still pretty good (even without Peyton Manning)

So much for the theory that Knowshon Moreno's impressive 2013 fantasy campaign was the result of defenses respecting Peyton Manning and the Denver Broncos' historic offense. Now running behind Ryan Tannehill in Miami, Moreno still looks like an effective tailback and, dare we say it, top fantasy option.

Moreno rushed 24 times for 134 yards and a touchdown in the Dolphins' Week 1 win over the New England Patriots. That's good for 18.90 fantasy points in standard leagues.

The Dolphins won't score as many points as the 2013 Broncos did, but for now it looks like that won't kill Moreno's value.
