Who Should I Start? Cade Otton or Harold Fannin Jr.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Cade Otton was unable to get anything going during the season opener last week. Otton failed to bring in any of his three targets in the win. It's worth noting that Otton was dealing with a groin injury heading into this game. Possibly, Otton's lack of contribution was due to his groin problems. He appears to be fine heading into the Week 2 matchup against the Houston Texans. It's worth noting that Otton has topped 35 yards in just one of his last seven outings, dating back to last season. It's probably best if Otton is left on the bench until he proves he can be a reliable contributor.

Cleveland Browns tight end Harold Fannin Jr. will get a chance to build on his rapport with quarterback Joe Flacco in Week 2 when his team squares off with the hosting Baltimore Ravens. Fannin Jr. was surprisingly involved in his NFL debut, leading all Cleveland pass-catchers with nine targets. While the Browns airing it out to such an extent every week seems unlikely, it's encouraging that the rookie was on the field a ton, recording 55 snaps (72%) -- only nine fewer than teammate David Njoku. There are quite a few mouths to feed in Cleveland, so Fannin Jr.'s floor could be volatile. That said, his Week 1 performance is impossible to ignore. He's RotoBaller's PPR TE20, and profiles as a TE2 with upside.
