Tight End: Evan Engram, New York Giants- $5,800

After dropping their last two contest, the New York Giants are back in the win column. Now, that may not be a good thing for a team that is likely looking for the number one overall pick, but nevertheless they defeated the San Fransisco 49ers 27-23.

In the victory, Engram caught four passes for 46 yards. Engram has recored consecutive games with at least four catches. On the season he has tallied 21 receptions for 191 yards and two touchdowns.

Engram and the New York Giants take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers at home and he has a great opportunity to put up big numbers. Last week was the first time this season that the Buccaneers did not allow 20 or more points in a game.

Even with that performance, opposing teams are averaging 32.3 points per game against the Buccaneers, most allowed in the league. On average the position group is scoring 14 fantasy points per game, second most in the NFL. The only team that allowed more on average are the Carolina Panthers.

In addition, Tampa has surrendered 701 yards to tight ends, the most in the NFL. The Buccaneers have allowed tight ends to eclipse the 100-yard mark twice this season and they have given up at least 70 yards in five of their nine games.

Engram played one career against the Buccaneers and he caught six passes for 62 yards. He was targeted 11, which is third most in his career. The agile and athletic tight end should have no problem getting open. His size and skill set will be a matchup problem for a struggling Buccaneers defense.
