Should I Start Gunnar Helm?

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.
