The Tight End Report: The Bon Jovi Edition – Week 9

Woah, we’re halfway there, as Bon Jovi once famously warbled. While I’m certain he wasn’t referring to Week 9 of a fantasy football season, the sentiment is just the same. We have reached the midway point of the 2020 regular season, and lo and behold, the tight end position is just as toxic as ever. Don’t believe me? We have all the data you need…...

Time for Irv Smith? The Tight End Report – Week 8

National Tight End Day, my favorite holiday of the year, went off with a bang in Week 7. There were heartwarming performances by our favorites like Rob Gronkowski, Darren Waller, and T.J. Hockenson. We also saw glimpses from rookies like Harrison Bryant and Albert Okwuegbunam. In all, the TE spot enjoyed its week in the limelight. But now we have to worry about the coming…...

The Stream is Running Dry: The Tight End Report – Week 7

Week 6 was another strange one for the tight ends of the NFL. Among the leading performers were players like Anthony Firkser,[1]Who? Rob Gronkowski,[2]Him? and Trey Burton.[3]This is a joke, right? Several trusted performers did diddly squat for their fantasy managers. It was another weird, weird week. Well, things aren’t going to get any less weird this time out. The streaming landscape is incredibly bare,…...

Week 6 Wasteland: The Tight End Report – Week 6

The Week 6 tight end landscape looks horrible. There, I said it. The teams on a bye, the roster percentages of serviceable TEs, everything is conspiring to make this week look ugly. However, do not be too downhearted. After showing off all the relevant TE data you could hope to see from Week 5 and the season as a whole, I have three streaming options you…...

You Can Still Trust Mo-Alie Cox: The Tight End Report – Week 5

We are a quarter of the way through the season. I did not think we’d get here, I admit. But as readers of my work for a number of years will tell you, I’ve been wrong before. In the words and images below you will find all the information you could ever want about the tight end position from Week 4, plus helpful information moving…...

It’s Time for Dalton Schultz to Not Be Nice: The Tight End Report – Week 4

Week 3 of the NFL season had something of the Obi-Wan Kenobi about it. I don’t mean it was full of legendary deeds from one of the galaxy’s greatest heroes. I mean that among the leading tight ends there were a few names that we haven’t heard in a long time. A long time. Jimmy Graham was the TE1. There was a TE3 finish for…...

The Time Has Finally Come for Mo Alie-Cox: The Tight End Report – Week 3

The tight end position seemed to escape the serious injury bug that attacked the NFL in Week 2. Some players were unable to stay healthy, but no players with the star power of the running backs lost were affected. This is something of a relief to all, players and fans alike. The good news for me was that finally people may have woken up to…...

Are We Witnessing a Changing of the Guard in Philadelphia? The Tight End Report – Week 2

Welcome one and all to The Tight End Report. If you are looking for relevant data regarding fantasy football’s most volatile position, then you have come to the right place. Of course, we have your recommended streaming options at the TE spot for the week ahead. That goes without saying. But we also have production numbers for last week’s most dominant performers. We also have…...

2020 Week 1 Tight End Streamers

There were times when many doubted we would ever get here. But finally, after the most topsy-turvy offseason in NFL history, Week 1 is upon us. This means, of course, to paraphrase the late, great Ricardo Montalban, we have entered Fantasy Island. While most drafts have only been completed recently, this doesn’t necessarily mean that fantasy managers are ecstatic with the players on their teams…....

Late-Round TE Pairs to Draft in 2020

Many of the smartest people have been advocating a similar approach regarding tight ends in fantasy drafts ahead of the 2020 NFL season. There is a “Big Four” at the top of the position, with Travis Kelce, George Kittle, Mark Andrews, and Zach Ertz the acknowledged leaders. Given their track records and expected opportunities, these are the safest options to take at fantasy football’s most…...

JuJu Smith-Schuster to finish as the WR1 and Other Bold Predictions for 2020

The season is almost here. The time for speculation is almost over. But not quite. With actual live games starting in just a few weeks, there is still time for hot takes to emerge ahead of the 2020 NFL season. With this in mind, the writers at RotoViz got their thinking caps on to come up with a bold, yet not outlandish, prediction for the…...

The Guy Behind The Guy: RotoViz’s Favorite Backup Pass Catchers in 2020

Welcome to the second part in our series looking at players who could be absolute superstars in 2020 … if only the player(s) ahead of them on the depth chart would just get out of the way. In the previous edition of The Guy Behind the Guy, we looked at backup running backs that our writers are particularly high on, and would rally behind if…...

The Guy Behind The Guy: RotoViz’s Favorite Backup RBs In 2020

Don’t call it a comeback! Well actually, as this is a sequel to a series that ran prior to the 2019 NFL season, I suppose you should call it a comeback. Anyway, call it what you want but this piece will focus not on the superstars of the NFL, but rather their understudies. Players that our writers believe could be fantasy relevant producers in the coming…...

I’m Fading Adam Thielen in 2020 and Here’s Why

There are several factors in play that could lead you towards the opinion that Adam Thielen is ready for a bounceback campaign in 2020. However, there are just as many that should lead you to think the exact opposite. It is these negative factors that you must keep in mind in drafts when you start thinking about adding the Minnesota Vikings man. Bouncebackability? Predicting bounceback…...

3 Players RotoViz Rankers Are Higher on Than FFPC Drafters

There is still a fair amount of uncertainty as to whether we will actually get an NFL season in 2020. However, until higher powers tell us otherwise, the fantasy football world continues to assume that some action will take place on the gridirons of America this fall and winter. With this in mind, the folks over at the FFPC are still churning out the fantasy…...

Don’t Delay, Acquire David Njoku in Dynasty Today

There is no position in the NFL with a steeper learning curve than that of tight end. Players at that position come into the league and are expected to not only learn how to run NFL routes but also block NFL defenders. Is there little wonder then that rookie stars at this position are so hard to find? Some people still make the mistake of…...

5 Notable Fallers in High Stakes Leagues Since the NFL Draft

It seems like 100 years or more since the 2020 NFL Draft. But I assure you, it was only last month. Since the last name was called at the event, nearly 150 high stakes drafts have taken place over at the FFPC. I thought it would be interesting to take a look at five players who have experienced something of a drop in popularity since…...
