Fantasy Football Trade Advice

Players to Buy

Sam LaPorta (TE – DET)

Sam LaPorta strung together another solid outing – 5 for 63 yards on six targets. Runs ALL the routes. Solid weekly floor. 84% route participation was better than in Week 1.

Hunter Henry (TE – NE)

Hunter Henry scored again as Jones’ favorite red-zone target, while seeing elite usage. Ran a route on 91% of dropbacks. Henry is entering weekly starting territory at tight end.

Cade Otton (TE – TB)

Cade Otton played 97% of the snaps for the second straight game. And this time, it came with more targets. With the Eagles’ secondary extremely weak towards the middle of the field, expect Otton to be peppered with targets from Baker Mayfield. Caught all 6 of his targets for 41 yards in Week 2, while running a route on 78% of dropbacks. That led the Buccaneers pass-catchers.

Jake Ferguson (TE – DAL)

Tight end Jake Ferguson caught the first TD, and Dak Prescott missed him later in the third quarter in the back of the end zone. Ended with three catches for 11 yards and four targets. His snaps remain low (60%) as does his route participation (49%). But Prescott continues to hyper-target him whenever he is on the field especially in the red zone. Leads ALL players in red-zone targets (7) through two games.

Ferguson is firmly on the streaming radar in more competitive games. Great matchup in Week 3 versus the tight end funnel Arizona Cardinals.
