Who Should I Start? Lucas Krull or Zaire Mitchell-Paden

Denver Broncos tight end Lucas Krull will face the Carolina Panthers in Week 8 this Sunday. The third-year tight end was the team's second-leading receiver in Week 7's 33-10 domination of a depleted Saints squad. Despite being listed as the second-string option behind teammate Adam Trautman on Denver's depth chart, Krull has out-targeted, out-received, and out-gained Trautman over the last three weeks. Still, even in a juicy matchup against a porous Panthers defense, the 26-year-old will not be a viable fantasy option. The former undrafted free agent is RotoBaller's PPR TE31 ahead of the Week 8 outing.

Cleveland Browns tight end Zaire Mitchell-Paden turned in a solid effort in his team's 27-12 preseason loss to the Minnesota Vikings on Saturday. Mitchell-Paden led the team in receiving, hauling in all four of his targets for 59 yards in the loss. The undrafted second-year tight end out of Florida Atlantic has been productive in Cleveland's two preseason games, catching seven passes for 79 yards thus far. While David Njoku has the No. 1 TE job locked down in Cleveland, Mitchell-Paden will look to carve out a reserve role in the team's offense once the regular season starts. For now, he is worth consideration in preseason DFS contests in Week 3 of the preseason when the Browns face the Seattle Seahawks.
