Tight Ends

START — Tyler Warren (vs TEN): Matchup is prime: Tennessee can be had on seams and play-action throwbacks. Warren has a real red-zone role (Tuddys in three straight), and that keeps his line useful even on 5-6 targets. I’m betting touchdown equity and volume here equals a top-5 week.

START — Tucker Kraft (GB @ PIT): Green Bay needs quick answers against the rush, which funnels throws to backs and tight ends. Kraft’s on the field in money situations, and that’s all I need from a TE. Give me 4–6 catches with a shot or two inside the 10.

SIT — Mark Andrews (BAL vs CHI): I’m dialing down expectations and sitting where I’ve got a viable alternative. Baltimore will lean run inside the five, and that narrows the target pie when games tilt positive. Plus, Tremaine Edmunds is solid, and the Bears have given up only two scores to the position all year.

SIT — Chig Okonkwo (TEN @ IND): Routes and targets have been too fragile (two targets, zero catches, zero yards last week for Chig), and the emergence of Gunna Helm isn’t reassuring. On the road in a tough spot with a rookie QB, I don’t want to chase a hope-and-a-prayer line. I’ll stream someone with steadier usage and a higher floor.
