Spoeank posted:A second TE to maybe start in week 13 (after seeing it two weeks in a row)? Okay yeah let's actually delve into these numbers then Houston had played against exactly two good TEs and they were against a notoriously fickle Kelce and Delaine Walker before Mularkey freed the Mariota The only good TEs Seattle has played were Bennett and a gimped Gronk and they combined for 10/158 Chicago shut down CJ Hatguy and Witten the first 3 weeks of the season but have since given up 8/60/1 to Allen/Doyle and gave up 5/30 to Kyle Rudolph who might as well loving be Jared Cook. In PPR that's 5.5-8 which has been Witten territory all year and he's a perfectly serviceable TE It's pretty easy to shut down the TE when you're playing against the Jets/Cards/Rams/Vikings/Giants come on try a little harder broseph e: specifically the bears, their best LB is Trevethan and he's very much a run stopper not a coverage guy.

Kelce was targeted 7 times and got 5 catches for 34 yards. I'm not sure that's "fickle" for TE. Walker was targeted 8 times for 2 catches and 34 yards. Pretty good coverage on the TE I'd say.

Take a look at that Tennessee game and see if any of their players did anything of note enough to determine that it was good TE coverage or a lovely game for their passing attack on the whole Kelce is actually averaging 5/57 on just about 7 targets so that's actuality kind of right in line with his per game average for the season

Other than Cook I can pick from Ertz, Tye, Hooper (although ESPN is negging on him because of toilolo) or Vance McDonald. Is Ertz the pick out of those?

# ? Nov 23, 2016 20:02 |

I would rank them as Hooper McDonald/Cook depending on how desperate you are this week or if you're trying to play for the playoffs Ertz Tye This is where people are going to bag on me for playing devil's advocate for Cook while telling you to roster Zach loving Ertz e: eh, maybe McDonald is 1A over Hooper, he's been jiving with Kaep a bit. I think I'd take him Teemu Pokemon fucked around with this message at 20:09 on Nov 23, 2016 |

Lance Kendricks is on pace for 60-550, or roughly Cook's career production (more catches, fewer yards). He's garbage.

And I know there are some guys who need a TE.

I'm not won over I'm just saying stranger things have happened and considering the way the Packers are built right now the pieces are there for a miracle. Whether it happens or not remains to be seen but like I saidTeemu Pokemon posted:I'd easily rather have him on my bench than Bibbs or the Washingtons or LaFell or some poo poo. He's a late-season long shot flyer, just like 99% of the guys you're adding during week 12.

This is basically the same thing I'm saying about Cook though? Both he and Ertz are career underperformers with measurables and the Packers are basically running a hyper-WCO to compensate for their complete lack of a running game and desperately need someone who can split the seam at the second level. That's a perfect storm for any TE with the prototypical tools to thrive. I know it's Jared Cook, but look at fantasy football as an entire entity and tell me if any of it makes sense. I'm not saying Jared loving Cook will lead you to the promised land, just saying don't be so dismissive

That's a perfect storm for any TE with the prototypical tools to thrive. Ertz has now had multiple games showing he's getting that opportunity, his competition for targets is Jordan Matthews, DGB, et al, and he's actually had a good fantasy year in his career. Meanwhile, Jordy and Cobb each had just 5 targets in the sole good game that Cook has had, while Adams had 6 (so 16 total between them). That trio averages 26 targets a game for the rest of the year, including a game Cobb missed. I am just really not seeing Cook having anywhere near the target share he had the last game, and he's bad at football so needs volume to do anything.

Spoeank posted:Did Jared Cook get you with one or those Wrath of Khan worms? I've specifically railed against the GB TE narrative in this very thread, but this Packers offense is not the same Packers offense of the last X years and shouldn't be judged in the same vacuum. The way they're running it right now, it's just begging for a TE to become a between the 20s target hog. It's too bad that TE is Cook but can't keep from loving that measurables chicken.

For people down on Sammy Watkins, Buffalo's offense was very different the two games he was healthy this season. His playoff schedule looks nice. Don't drop someone good, but he is absolutely worth taking a flyer on if you have a spot. So can someone tell me why we aren't giving Kaepernick more streaming love. He is putting up some nice numbers consistently.
