Foster Moreau Only a Deep League Option

Saturday, October 3, 4:28 AM

Houston Texans tight end Foster Moreau has caught two passes in each of his three games this season, regularly getting involved as the team's second tight end behind Dalton Schultz. Moreau found the end zone in Week 3 and got a season-high four targets against the Colts, actually getting more targets than Schultz, who only had three. Moreau played 57% of snaps, and his workload is definitely worth watching as the Texans try to figure out who can emerge as an effective option for the struggling offense. Moreau is only the TE45 in RotoBaller's Week 4 rankings, so he isn't a starter outside of the deepest formats yet. However, he is a DFS punt play and a sleeper to watch if he keeps getting so much playing time.

Oronde Gadsden Borderline TE2 in Week 5 vs. Broncos

Saturday, October 10, 8:37 AM

Los Angeles Chargers tight end Oronde Gadsden could see more targets in his Week 5 matchup against the Denver Broncos. The Chargers officially ruled out wideout Quentin Johnston (chest), while wideout Ladd McConkey (foot) and tight end Charlie Kolar (forearm) are questionable for the contest. If McConkey and Kolar can't suit up, Gadsden would likely become Justin Herbert's No. 2 target in the passing game. Gadsden enters Week 5 as RotoBaller's PPR TE26 in an intriguing matchup. The Broncos defense will be without its top 2 cornerbacks, Patrick Surtain II and Riley Moss, and has allowed the 13th-most passing yards and the 14th-most passing touchdowns. However, Gadsden should still be viewed as a borderline TE2 in Week 5. Gadsden has had chances to assert himself in the Chargers' passing game while teammates battled injuries, but he hasn't been able to capitalize on the opportunity. He should remain out of lineups heading into Week 5.
