TIGHT END

Dennis Pitta ($5000) Ravens vs. Jaguars – Joe Flacco and Pitta have long had a connection but Pitta can not stay on the field and healthy playing only 7 games the past two seasons. So far this year he looks healthy and Flacco has locked onto him early and often receiving 16 targets through two weeks rewarding people that took a chance with a 100 yard day. As long as Pitta is on the field, Flacco will continue to count on him over the middle and give him consistent targets. For a price of only $5,000, Pitta really only needs to get to 10 fantasy points to be considered reaching value. He shouldn’t have a problem at all this week against a very average defense.

Jacob Tamme ($5500) Falcons vs. Saints – Another TE that has kind of flown under the radar and is super cheap is Tamme. He has gotten 8 targets in both games and is a consistent weapon for Matt Ryan. I have said it a number of times in this article but I really like the Falcons to put up huge numbers Monday night and Tamme will be a big part of that. If he can catch 5-6 balls and get in the end zone, he will provide great value at only $5500.

Others I Like – Delanie Walker ($6900), Trey Burton ($4500)
