Fantasy football: 10 best Week 6 matchups to attack

Jimmy Graham vs Falcons

The Seahawks acquired Jimmy Graham from the Saints looking to add one of the elite pass-catching tight ends in the NFL. Since coming to Seattle before last season, though, Graham has struggled with injury and ended up with a down year last year with only 605 yards and two touchdowns.

This season, though, things seem to be starting to turn around, and he should be able to keep them going the right direction in one of the best week 6 matchups for a tight end. He and the Seahawks come off their bye and welcome in the Falcons who are soaring high after they knocked off the Broncos last week.

Graham had two of his best games with Seattle just before the bye hauling in six catches against the 49ers and the Jets in Week 3 and Week 4. He had 100 and 113 yards in those two contests and scored one of the ‘Hakws TDs against the 49ers.

He’ll look to continue clicking with Russell Wilson this week as he faces the Falcons who have been vulnerable to opposing tight ends. Only the Browns have given up more fantasy points to TE this season, and last week was the first game where Atlanta had been able to hold opposing tight end out of the end zone (partly because Denver didn’t have Virgil Green). Look for Graham to continue his renaissance with a big week this week at home against the Falcons.
