OK, thinking of going all or nothing at TE in my one league. Need a replacement for Ertz this week and the TE selection is grim. You have the players that had the one decent week like Njogu and Howard and a couple others, but then they get very few targets or if they are getting them, not catching them and all averaging around 3-5/week. So, would have to get lucky to get any real points out of any of them and keep in mind, I won last week with Ertz giving me a goose egg due to Philly resting him the extra week to get the hammy right.
So, being from Chicago and having see the potential of Adam Shaheen in Pre Season, I am considering taking a flier on him. I am more likely to get a goose egg from him than many of the TE's on the wires, but there is also a chance now that Z. Miller is done for the season and the O needing a spark that The Bears get him a huge upswing in PT and targets. Real long shot, but "Baby Gronk" as was his nickname coming into the NFL, if handed Miller's role has the potential to actually become Baby Gronk in the NFL. If he were to do that, he could even turn himself into a possible every week Flex player, as I already have a top 4 TE in Ertz.
I am tied for 1st with 6-3 record, so can afford a loss, but even if I get a goose egg from him, might not be a loss, as I won last week with one from Ertz.
