Crockett Gillmore-TE-Baltimore Ravens (11.0%)

The Ravens’ Kamar Aiken wasn’t the only Raven on my list last week as he was joined by Crockett Gillmore who has been emerging as a tight end weapon for Baltimore.  This week, Joe Flacco targeted Gillmore with four passes and all four resulted in receptions for a total of 42 yards and a touchdown.

Gillmore has four scores on the season now with a total of 284 yards on 24 catches.  He doesn’t stretch the field much, but his role as a red zone target and a reliable option in an offense looking for playmakers make him the top tight end that I would target on waiver wires this week.

Baltimore has a favorable schedule for tight ends coming up against the Rams, Browns, Dolphins, and Seahawks. He still isn’t a well-known name and carries some risk, but he’s a fringe TE1 for the rest of the way.
