The Facts:
The Dolphins signed Ochocinco to a one-year deal. When Miami traded away veteran receiver Brandon Marshall for a pair of 2012 draft picks, they left quite a gap in their receiving group. Ochocinco will have an opportunity to help fill that gap.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
If he can rediscover the player he was before he landed in New England, he could provide a spark. Now 34-years old, it's also clear that this is in no way meant to be a long-term fix. Ochocinco struggled in New England due to his inability to understand the playbook and seems to be more productive when he can get in synch with his quarterback and freelance. How much of that he'll be able to do in the new offense being rolled out by new HC Joe Philbin remains to be seen. With Brian Hartline and Davone Bess entrenched out wide and in the slot respectively, there's nobody in the way of Ochocinco winning the other primary receiving spot. Well, nobody other than himself.
