Trey McBride Eyes Another Elite Season, Starting Against Saints

Saturday, September 6, 11:05 AM

Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride has improved his numbers each year over the first three seasons of his career. Last season, he finished with 111 receptions for 1,146 yards and two touchdowns on 147 targets. He finished as the TE2, despite having the fewest touchdowns among the top 11 at his position. A positive regression seems to be plausible when it comes to that department, and given good health, he should be able to produce 100 catches and over a thousand yards yet again. In Week 1, RotoBaller has him projected to score 13.1 fantasy points, which would leave him second to only Brock Bowers. As long as he's on the field, McBride is a must-start in all fantasy formats.

Brenton Strange Off to Promising Start

Tuesday, September 9, 9:58 PM

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Brenton Strange was one of the team's offensive standouts in a 26-10 victory over the Carolina Panthers in Week 1. The former second-round pick from Penn State formed a nice connection with quarterback Trevor Lawrence, catching all four of his targets for 59 yards. It was Strange - not WRs Brian Thomas Jr. or Travis Hunter - who led the Jaguars in receiving yards. Strange also played 79 percent of the Jags' offensive snaps, trailing only Thomas among the team's receivers and tight ends. It appears Strange is going to have a major role in Jacksonville's offense under new head coach Liam Coen this season, yet he is only rostered in 22% of Yahoo leagues heading into a meeting with the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 2. Considering the Bengals allowed a combined 10 catches and 100 yards to Cleveland Browns tight ends Harold Fannin Jr. and David Njoku in Week 1, fantasy managers looking for help at TE should consider Strange.
