2. Cameron Brate, Tampa Bay Buccaneers

Rostered: 3.1%

Cameron Brate received six targets against the Patriots with Rob Gronkowski sidelined. Unfortunately, Brate finished the game with only two receptions for 29 yards.

Meanwhile, fellow tight end O.J. Howard was targeted only once.

With Gronkowski listed as doubtful for Sunday’s game against the Dolphins, Brate should continue to receive a good amount of targets in Tampa Bay’s offense.

He is a good streaming option in deeper leagues.

1. Dan Arnold, Jacksonville Jaguars

Rostered: 1.1%

Dan Arnold made his Jaguars’ debut last Sunday. He hauled in both of his targets for 29 yards.

The Jaguars had reportedly targeted Arnold in the offseason before acquiring him in the C.J. Henderson trade. So, he is a player that the organization clearly values. I expect Arnold’s role to increase as the weeks progress.

Tight end James O’Shaughnessy is on the IR. Wide receiver D.J. Chark was just placed on the IR following an ankle fracture, as well. Arnold has the opportunity to become the second or third receiver in Jacksonville. With 1.1 percent fantasy ownership, he is worth the risk.
