Fantasy Football Start 'Em Sit 'Em Week 9: Tight End rankings
Tight end is one of the trickiest positions to navigate in Fantasy Football. After the top few elite options there is not a wide selection of solid producers. Match-ups and trends are extremely important when streaming a tight end in a Fantasy Football line up. Here are some tight ends to target or avoid in Week 9.
Fantasy Football Start 'Em Sit 'Em - NFL Week 9
Start 'Em
#1 - Zach Ertz, Arizona Cardinas vs. San Francisco 49ers
Zach Ertz upgraded his Fantasy Football value when he moved from the Philadelphia Eagles to the Arizona Cardinals. He has been solid in his short time with the team so far and could continue to increase his target share as he builds chemistry with Kyler Murray.
The idea Zach Ertz isn’t good anymore was always wrong #Eagles
#2 - Dan Arnold, Jacksonville Jaguars vs. Buffalo Bills
Dan Arnold continues to build chemistry with quarterback Trevor Lawrence. The Jaguars should be playing from behind the entire game so their game script should feature a ton of passing plays.
#3 - Tyler Conklin, Minnesota Vikings vs. Baltimore Ravens
Tyler Conklin's stock is trending up in Fantasy Football. He is in a great matchup in Week 9 against the Baltimore Ravens' last ranked pass defense. He has Fantasy Football upside this week and is worth a shot.
Sit 'Em
#1 - Hunter Henry, New England Patriots vs. Carolina Panthers
Hunter Henry has been too inconsistent to trust in Fantasy Football. The Patriots spread the ball around too much in a lower scoring offense. Henry has been dependent on touchdowns for Fantasy Football points this season.
#2 - Cole Kmet, Chicago Bears vs. Pittsburgh Steelers
Cole Kmet has been trending up in Fantasy Football but drew a very difficult matchup this week with the Steelers. Kmet is worth a stash for his increased role in the offense but is better off benched this week.
#3 - Evan Engram, New York Giants vs. Las Vegas Raiders
Evan Engram is one of the most frustrating tight ends. He flashes the talent to be an elite option but continues to be disappointing. He is rarely worth the risk in Fantasy Football.
Evan Engram has 23 catches for 186 yards and one TD in a season when the Giants have been desperate for playmakers to step up. Trading him creates $3.3M in cap savings. He’s about to be a free agent. The Giants are 2-6. Take what you can get…
