Fantasy Impact
"I'd say it's an ongoing progression," said Sean Payton on Monday. "I think, man, there's some plays that are real good, and then there's some plays where we've got to be a little bit more detailed and that's something that I know he's got to work on." Payton also pointed out that Fleener needs to improve his blocking, but from a fantasy perspective, he should be fine. The Saints offense features the tight end (remember Ben Watson last year?) and he should see plenty of targets.
