Fantasy Profile: Josh Hill, TE, New Orleans Saints

Josh Hill is one of the most interesting potential sleeper picks this season. Now that the Saints have traded Jimmy Graham to Seattle the tight end position could be Hill’s for the taking. On average, over the last few seasons, Graham was targeted 120 times, Hill might not get all of those targets but the majority could be coming his way.

Heading into his third NFL season, Josh Hill has had just 20 receptions and is still an unproven route runner. He might not be the vertical threat that Jimmy Graham was but he did score five touchdowns last season, and will be a great red zone target for Brees. Hill is one of those tight ends that you could take a flier on in the latter rounds of the draft and hope for a big return during the season.
