Pat Freiermuth Faces Toughest Test of Season Against Bills

Saturday, November 29, 11:49 AM

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth returned to the end zone last week and will hope for similar success in Week 13 against the Buffalo Bills. Unfortunately, he draws the toughest possible matchup. Buffalo has held opposing tight ends to the fewest fantasy points, receptions, yards, and touchdowns this season. While Freiermuth has been more productive than teammate Jonnu Smith, none of Pittsburgh's tight ends are commanding consistent weekly opportunities. Between Freiermuth, Smith, and Darnell Washington, Freiermuth's red-zone usage suggests he is the most likely to score on Sunday, but fantasy managers should steer clear of this matchup if possible.

Trey McBride is the TE1 Overall Heading into Week 12

Saturday, November 22, 1:47 AM

Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride enters Week 12 as RotoBaller's No. 1 overall-ranked tight end and holds tier one to himself. The 26-year-old has set the fantasy world on fire again with back-to-back 27-plus point performances and No. 1 overall finishes. McBride will once again be the focal point of the passing game with wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. (appendix) missing his second straight game after undergoing surgery to address appendicitis. Heading into Week 12, McBride will face a Jacksonville Jaguars defense that has allowed the fifth-most passing touchdowns this season. McBride has caught at least one touchdown pass in his previous five games and has six total touchdowns during that stretch. McBride is a set-it-and-forget-it TE1 with massive upside heading into Sunday in a favorable matchup.
