Tight End: Will Dissly, Seattle Seahawks- $4,600

The Seattle Seahawks are struggling offensively. They have only amassed 582 yards total yards, 27th in the NFL. Russell Wilson is constantly running for his life and it doesn’t help that his top target, Doug Baldwin, is injured.

Baldwin missed Seattle’s game on Monday against the Chicago Bears and there is a good chance he misses Sunday’s game against the Dallas Cowboys. Bears. In his absence, Dissly has emerged.

The rookie tight end has compiled six receptions for 147 yards and two scores. He is tied for the most touchdowns with Eric Ebron and Travis Kelce. Dissly has the fourth most total yards at the position, currently ahead of Zach Ertz, Rob Gronkowski and Kelce.

Inside the 20, Dissly has a perfect catch percentage and both of his touchdowns have come within the red zone. According to Pro Football Focus, the fourth-round draft pick, is the top graded rookie tight end.

Dissly has a solid matchup against the Cowboys, who have allowed 23.4 FanDuel fantasy points this season. Through two games, they have allowed tight ends to catch 13 passes for 109 yards and one score, just over eight yards per reception.

There is a good chance Seattle struggles to run the ball against Dallas, which means Wilson will be throwing the ball a ton. Through two games Wilson has thrown the ball 30+ in each content. With Baldwin likely to miss the game, that means more opportunities for Dissly.
