Mason Taylor Offers PPR Streaming Value Against Kansas City

Saturday, November 7, 6:49 AM

New York Jets tight end Mason Taylor (back) has drawn at least 5 targets in three straight games and could see more work Sunday at Kansas City with Garrett Wilson (concussion) out. Taylor practiced fully Thursday and Friday after being limited Wednesday and carries no game designation. His 5 catches for 62 yards and 2 touchdowns against Miami in Week 7 were followed by 3 catches for 19 yards against Las Vegas. The Chiefs have allowed 48 catches, 459 yards and 5 touchdowns to tight ends in seven games, a matchup that puts Taylor in play as a streamer in 12-team PPR leagues. Denver tight ends Adam Trautman and Nate Adkins combined for 4 catches, 34 yards and a touchdown against Kansas City in Week 8, while Evan Engram went catchless on 3 targets. New York also rotates at the position. Taylor drew 5 targets to Kenyon Sadiq's 2 against Las Vegas, but their playing time was closer, with Taylor logging 39 offensive snaps and Sadiq playing 31. That target edge gives Taylor a better chance to help PPR managers even if the two continue to share playing time.

Eli Raridon Sees Increased Usage in Loss

Sunday, November 8, 6:01 PM

New England Patriots tight end Eli Raridon saw more involvement than normal during Sunday's game against the Green Bay Packers. The rookie tight end bounced back nicely after finishing with five receiving yards during last week's contest. On Sunday, Raridon hauled in three of his six targets for 52 yards in the blowout loss. This marked the third time in the last five games that Raridon has finished with 50 receiving yards or more. He has seen his target share increase recently, and the six targets on Sunday were a new career-high. There could be some deep league value for Raridon for next week's matchup against the Detroit Lions.
