Who Should I Start? Adam Trautman or Terrance Ferguson

Denver Broncos tight end Adam Trautman was not targeted by quarterback Bo Nix during his team's 23-20 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 3. Trautman recorded three catches for 10 yards and a touchdown in Week 2 and profiled as a desperation streaming option at tight end heading into Week 3 with top Broncos tight end Evan Engram (back) sidelined for the game. Instead, it was Broncos tight end Lucas Krull who found the end zone on Sunday, finishing with one catch for nine yards and a score. Trautman has four catches for 15 yards and a touchdown through the first three games of the season and should not be trusted by fantasy managers even if Engram remains sidelined for Week 4.

Los Angeles Rams tight end Terrance Ferguson saw limited playing time over the first five weeks of the season, but his role has increased lately. The rookie has three catches for 85 yards and a touchdown over his last two games, averaging 8.8 fantasy points (PPR) during that span. Specifically, he has emerged as a big-play threat for the Rams. Two of Ferguson's last three catches have gone for at least 31 yards, allowing him to emerge as an intriguing target and chain-mover for Matthew Stafford. It will be tough for Ferguson to carve out a consistent target share behind Tyler Higbee, Davis Allen, and Colby Parkinson, but he has significant upside thanks to his receiving skills and high draft capital. He's a very appealing dynasty stash.
