Here is our fantasy football start/sit article, including all the players we’re calling sleepers and duds this week. Below, let’s take a closer look at a few players to consider this week.
“Zach Ertz is an intriguing sleeper outside the top 100. In two out of four weeks, he has finished as a top 10 tight end. Plus, he is averaging four targets per game while having three receptions per game. The downside is that his best receiving game happened when he had 62 yards receiving (season high). However, the Browns have an aggressive defensive front, which should put pressure on QB Jayden Daniels. This could mean he has to get the ball out quickly and not have time to throw downfield. Ertz could be his safety blanket this game which could lead to another top 10 finish this week.”

“I like taking a chance on Justin Watson this week. Someone has to catch passes in this offense with all the injuries at receiver. Watson has the most familiarity with Patrick Mahomes and is a good big-play threat. Plus, he played 69 percent of the snaps last week, showing he is a big part of the offense with Rashee Rice out.”

“Tight end has been a dumpster fire in the early going. Thankfully, there are a ton of sleeper TEs available on the waiver wire, even during bye weeks. In Week 5, I’m playing whoever suits up as the TE1 in Jacksonville. I’m hoping that’s Evan Engram, but I’ll roll out Brenton Strange if Engram sits again. Indy is the 3rd worst defense when it comes to giving up fantasy points to opposing tight ends, having hemorrhaged points to Cole Kmet and Pat Freiermuth in back-to-back weeks. The Colts’ secondary is thin at the corner, and they’ll need to employ their good safeties to help against a solid group of Jags receivers that includes the outstanding Brian Thomas Jr. If Engram plays, he’s no doubt in my lineup. If it’s Brenton, there are far stranger options to plug in at TE this week.”
