1. TE Cole Kmet, Chicago Bears

Rostered: 38.8%

Cole Kmet continues to shine the Bears’ suddenly explosive offense. The Bears have scored 29+ points in four consecutive games, and Kmet has seen a significant increase in production. After failing to record a touchdown in 28 straight games, he has scored five touchdowns in his last three games.

This season, Kmet is leading the Bears in red zone targets. As long as their offense continues to move the football downfield, Kmet should see plenty of opportunities to get into the end zone.

Kmet’s value extends outside the end zone, as well. Justin Fields has increasingly targeted Kmet as the season progressed. On Sunday, Kmet led the Bears in targets (7) and receiving yards (74).

Since Week 8, Kmet leads all tight ends in fantasy points. With an appetizing match up against the Atlanta Falcons this week, Kmet has a good chance to sustain his recent momentum. He should be rostered in most leagues.
