Who Should I Start? Cade Otton or Mason Taylor

Friday, October 3, 5:26 PM

Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Cade Otton was able to make a small impact during last week's loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Otton hauled in three of his four targets for nine yards. Through four games, Otton has been held to six receptions for 34 yards and no touchdowns. He has played above 90 percent of the offensive snaps each of the last three games. Despite that, Otton doesn't appear to be a viable option in the receiving game right now. Both Emeka Egbuka and Chris Godwin figure to continue seeing a high volume of targets. Otton can continue to ride the bench until he starts making a consistent impact.

New York Jets tight end Mason Taylor has quickly become a main part of the team's passing game, and the rookie tight end is worth a look in almost all fantasy formats due to the volume he has been getting. The second-round pick out of LSU has been the team's top pass-catching tight end all season, but he had just two catches on three targets in his first two games. Since then, though, he has 18 catches on 25 targets over three weeks for a total of 150 yards. Taylor set career-highs with nine catches on 12 targets for 67 yards against the Cowboys in Week 5, pacing the team in catches and targets as the team tried to scramble back against Dallas. The 0-5 Jets have had to play from behind a lot this year, and they'll take on the Broncos in the morning game from London in Week 6. Taylor can definitely be a strong TE1 option for as long as he keeps getting so much volume.
