In my previous piece, I touched on three quarterbacks who have favorable early-season schedules, which you should target if you are looking to stream the position. The late-round quarterback approach continues to grow in popularity each season. Later round options cost less in terms of draft capital and can afford you a comparable floor/ceiling to more expensive options.
In this piece, I’m using the Strength of Schedule Streaming App to identify early-season streamable tight ends. The tight end position continues to be top-heavy. Once you get past players like Travis Kelce and George Kittle, including a few more, the drop off in expected production is significant. Late-round tight end options give you a similar benefit to late-round quarterbacks if you can pick the right players.
Let’s take a closer look at my three favorite streaming tight ends with favorable early-season schedules.
Blake Jarwin – Redraft ADP TE18
Some of the hype surrounding Blake Jarwin can be traced back to the last few weeks of the 2018 season. During that final stretch, he was the TE5 from Weeks 12-17. While a three-score game buoyed much of that in Week 17, he did see at least seven targets in three of his final four games.
