Evan Engram Shows Signs of Life

Wednesday, October 14, 12:03 PM

After a forgettable stretch, Denver Broncos tight end Evan Engram got back on track with a meaningful performance during a win over the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 5. Engram finished the win with four receptions for 55 yards. It was his highest yardage total in a game this season, while it equaled his high reception total. Engram had recorded just two receptions for 23 yards over the previous three games, so it was a good sign for the veteran pass catcher. Still, he remains RotoBaller's 29th-ranked tight end and is projected to score just five points against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 6. Seattle allowed San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle to record five receptions but limited him to just 24 yards a week ago.

Gunnar Helm News

Gunnar Helm a Bench Stash Against Colts

Saturday, October 17, 8:08 AM

Tennessee Titans tight end Gunnar Helm is a clear bench option in Week 6 against the Indianapolis Colts. The young tight end started the season as a solid short-passing option, but in the last two weeks, he has just one catch on two targets. It seems that quarterback Cam Ward has been looking elsewhere, making it hard for fantasy managers to expect Helm to take advantage of the 23rd-ranked defense in fantasy points allowed to tight ends. Helm could become a solid fantasy option sometime in the near future, but for now, he is more of a dynasty option than a redraft option. Unless Ward shows signs of improvement and the offense manages to score more in coming games, Helm should remain out of fantasy lineups. Despite a great matchup, Helm should not be in fantasy starting lineups in Week 6.
