Here’s all you need to know about the fantasy tight end landscape last week: Marcedes Lewis was fantasy’s leading scorer among tight ends with 24.2 fantasy points in Week 3. That might not sound so strange until you consider that Lewis had more fantasy points in Week 3 than he had in either of the past two seasons. Lewis was joined as a TE1 in Week 3 by such obvious names as Ryan Griffin, Vernon Davis, Luke Willson, and Lance Kendricks. Oh, and Jason Witten and Travis Kelce, top-3 tight ends through the first two weeks of…

Week 1 is officially in the books! Just as everyone predicted, Austin Hooper and Jesse James are the top two fantasy tight ends. Business as usual. Seriously, though - aside from Hooper and James trading places with Rob Gronkowski and Travis Kelce atop the tight end leaderboard, there wasn’t a lot that took place in Week 1 that changed the tight end landscape. Just 10 tight ends reached double-digit point totals in Week 1. Gronkowski and Kelce had difficult matchups and they will obviously recover quickly. As we approach…

Welcome to the first installment in our positional matchup series! Each week we here at Fantrax will highlight some favorable and unfavorable matchups at each position to help you with those tough lineup decisions. Today we will start with tight ends. You will most likely start Rob Gronkowski and Travis Kelce every week, even in poor matchups. However, if you waited on a tight end in your draft, you may have two similar options to choose from. Let’s dig into the matchups to see where the advantages lie. FAVORABLE…

Fantasy football season is right around the corner. Here are the top 10 tight ends to target as we draw closer to draft season. 1. Rob Gronkowski, New England Patriots - Is this a surprise to anyone? We all know that the big negative with Gronk is health. When he's healthy, however, it's a buffet of points from Tom Brady, possibly the greatest quarterback to play the game. In just six games in 2016, Gronk had three 100-yard games and three touchdowns. He also caught 25-of-38 targets for 540 yards. Look for more of the…

In fantasy football, you have to look for a quarterback that is consistent week to week. You don't want to be stuck with the guy who lights it up one week and follows it up with a 175-yard passing game with zero TD passes and three interceptions. With that in mind, here are the guys I would draft to be my starting fantasy quarterback. 1. Matt Ryan, Atlanta Falcons - Ryan had a truly breakout season in 2016, as he was the NFL's MVP.  There is no reason to think he's going to slow down in 2017, as all of his impressive…
