Over the last two seasons, Willis has posted a 5.6% big-time throw rate (118 dropbacks, per PFF), 10.9 yards per attempt, and averaged 44.8 rushing yards per game... Willis's running prowess should have him flirting with QB1 production this year alone.

Willis's elite rushing yards and efficiency metrics project QB1 upside despite limited starting resume.

Willis joins Miami in 2026 with limited starting experience but impressive efficiency metrics over the last two seasons: 5.6% big-time throw rate (118 dropbacks per PFF), 10.9 yards per attempt, and 44.8 rushing yards per game. His big-time throw rate would have ranked eighth-best among all QBs last year (behind Caleb Williams), his yards per attempt would have led the NFL, and his rushing yardage per game would have ranked first, fourth, and third among QBs over the last three years. Derek Brown projects Willis's rushing prowess alone could produce QB1 output, with additional upside if the Dolphins offense (featuring Greg Dulcich, rookies Chris Bell and Kevin Coleman Jr.) exceeds lowly expectations through the air.
