Fantasy Football Week 11 Tight End Preview: Streaming options, numbers to know, and more

Taysom Hill was our second-favorite streamer at tight end last week, and the seven Fantasy points he scored didn't leave a great taste in anyone's mouth. Of course, that production tied the number one waiver option, Mike Gesicki, so it's not like you missed out on much. While Gesicki's role as a streamer remains wholly dependent on whether Tee Higgins comes back, I am recommending you stick with Taysom Hill this week. 

Over the past two weeks, Hill is second on the Saints with a 14.3% target share and also ranks second with a 13.2% touch share. He's heavily involved in the red zone and ranks in the top five in touchdown odds at the tight end position. If you don't have a tight end who is seeing six targets per game, then you're basically just hoping for a touchdown, and I don't think you'll find anyone on the waiver wire who has a better chance of scoring each week than Hill.

Here's everything else you need to know about tight end in Week 11:

Week 11 TE Preview

The following players are not being projected to play in Week 11 at this time. Here's what it means:

• 0 -- Trey McBride has zero receiving touchdowns this season, and he's still TE4 per game. He could lap the position down the stretch if regression hits.
• 14.5 -- Mark Andrews is TE3 over the past month with an average of 14.5 PPR FPPG. 
• 27 -- Taysom Hill has 27 red zone rush attempts this season. He's only played six games.
• 9 -- Mike Gesicki had nine targets last week. Shake off the disappointment and start him again if Tee Higgins is out.
• 20.7% -- Dalton Kincaid leads the Bills with a 20.7% target share. There's a big opportunity for Dawson Knox if Kincaid is out.
