As long as he’s healthy and playing Rob
Gronkowski tops the list. He’s scored in two straight games and even though by
normal standards he doesn’t have a great matchup, this is Gronk. He’s coming
off a 10 target game in week 3 and should be in line for a similar workload and
that’s why he tops the list.
Travis Kelce, A.K.A Zuess is my number two
this week. He’s coming off a very disappointing week 3 (1 target, 1 catch for 1
yard), but don’t let that deter you from rolling with him in week 4. Kelce will
definitely see more than a single target this week going up against a Redskins
defense that have allowed the most receiving yards to opposing tight ends.
I moved Redskins tight end Jordan Reed
into my 7 spot this week. Reed is typically a tough matchup for any defender;
his biggest obstacle is usually his health. If Reed plays, expect him to be
involved in the passing game. He’s been quiet thus far this season, so there
will be no better time for Reed to make noise than Monday night.
I have Coby Fleener seated at the No.13
spot this week. He’s a borderline starter taking on a Dolphins defense that has
allowed the 7th most fantasy points to opposing tight ends and a better than 78
percent completion rate. It’s a great matchup, but always tough to gauge since
Brees can really distribute the ball and has a lot of mouths to feed.
I have moved Chargers tight end Hunter
Henry down to the 23rd spot. Rivers is a gunslinger and with receivers like
Keenan Allen, Tyrell Williams, Travis Benjamin, running back Melvin Gordon, and
the other tight end Antonio Gates, just too many cooks in the kitchen. Henry
will be tough to trust until we see more consistent involvement in the pass
game; zero catches and zero targets.
That’s My Take.
