Fantasy Football TE Rankings, Who Should I Add Off Waiver Wires:

Colston Loveland (Bears) was one of the highest recommended TE waiver wire pickup this week.

Analysis

Colston Loveland, Bears — Rostered in 22% of Yahoo Leagues (Suggested 1-3% FAAB Bid)

Speaking of rookie tight ends with breakout potential, Colston Loveland is (sort of, kind of) on the fantasy radar after Cole Kmet suffered a back injury in Week 7. The severity is yet to be determined as of this writing, and Loveland isn’t a must-add even if Kmet misses significant time, but it’s a situation worth monitoring. Remember, Loveland was drafted four spots ahead of Tyler Warren back in April, and he certainly has the talent to matter for fantasy if he gets an opportunity.

At the very least, flag Loveland for the home stretch.

Recommendation: Should be stashed in 14-team leagues (pending Kmet injury news)

Who are the best stashes from the Fantasy Football TE Rankings?

Oronde Gadsden (Chargers) is the best tight end stash ahead of Week 8.

Analysis

Oronde Gadsden vs. Vikings (5%)

The underlying metrics are great and all, but you really don’t have to look much further than Oronde Gadsden’s box score to understand why we should be jumping on this hype train before it pulls out of the station. The prototypical “pass-catching” tight end has 14 catches for 232 yards and a 15-yard touchdown over the last two weeks, outscoring every single tight end not named Trey McBride in the process.

Gadsden had begun to see more work, catching his first career pass in Week 3, but the increase in work had directly coincided with a knee injury to veteran Will Dissly, who had been slated as the main pass-catching option in the Chargers’ deep TE room. Not only has Gadsden’s usage grown since Dissly’s return, but there’s a chance the vet dug his own grave by dropping a simple in-breaker near the beginning of the second quarter. That would end up being the only route he ran on the day, while Gadsden racked up 48 of them.

Gadsden is far and away the highest priority streamer of the week. Even if he doesn’t show out against the Vikings on Thursday Night Football, he’s a great grab for forward-looking managers. He is available in 95% of Yahoo leagues.
