Does Delta treat both flights as oneway, hence, using double mileage requirements. That's what I'm getting.
We've used FF miles for Cont. and AA in the past, both multi destinations, with basis RT mileage charged.
I think what may be happening here is that your itinerary is not complying with open jaw rules. I have not used Delta FF , but in Continental you can do an open jaw only if your beginning and end point are the same (for example, if your routing was MIA to SCL, Eze to MIA) or if your beginning and end point are different , but if you are flying into and out of same city (for example , if your routing was MIA to EZE, EZE to JFK).
Again, I don't know if Delta follows this same rule, but up to a few months ago Delta and Continental were partners and my understanding is that they ahd the same open jaw rules.
