Elite Plays

Delanie Walker, Tennessee Titans

Delanie Walker is one of the chalkiest tight ends this week, but deservingly so. Any tight end facing the Raiders puts them on the map, but the things is this week, Delanie Walker is actually good. PFF has Walker as the #2 rated tight end, just behind Rob Gronkowski, which puts things into perspective. He is also Marcus Mariota's favorite target, averaging 7.3 targets per game, and 20% of the red zone looks. Oakland has allowed ten touchdowns to opposing tight ends this season, which is the most in the NFL. His price, floor, and upside all align for him to be the top play this week. If both passing games click, this could be a high scoring game, and on a site like DraftKings, the full point reception is a bonus. He is averaging six catches a game this season.

I'm going to be splitting up most of my action at tight end between Walker and Barnidge. Barnidge has been a beast with McCown playing.

I love Walker, Barnidge and Reed this week. On DraftKings I am going to be pairing two of the three together in my lineups.
