Who Should I Start? Greg Dulcich or Oronde Gadsden

Miami Dolphins tight end Greg Dulcich split snaps with Julian Hill in the team's last game in Week 11, but he could play a smaller role in Week 13 against the Saints. Darren Waller (pec) is questionable and could return from IR, forcing Dulich into an uninvolved role off the bench. Dulich was brought in to provide some pass-catching at the position while Waller was out, and he hauled in eight catches on 13 targets over the last three games, producing a total of 89 receiving yards and no touchdowns. If Waller comes back, Dulcich is not a strong play in any format, since he is unlikely to get significant work. If Waller needs another week before being activated, Dulich would be a low-end TE2 while getting time along with Hill in a favorable matchup against the Saints.

Los Angeles Chargers rookie tight end Oronde Gadsden has seen his production seriously limited over the past two weeks, and he caught only one pass for seven yards on four targets in the team's overtime win against the Philadelphia Eagles on Monday night. He faces a tough Week 15 matchup against a Kansas City Chiefs defense that ranks in the top five against the tight end position, allowing just three touchdowns all season. Gadsden is dealing with a perfect storm of issues: an injured quarterback in Justin Herbert, the league's worst offensive line, a pass-averse game plan, and an elite defense against his position. Although he is still getting targets (second on the team last week), the quality of those targets has decreased. RotoBaller drops Gadsden to TE24 this week. He has little ceiling and a low floor, so Gadsden should probably stay on your bench this week.
