Jimmy Graham Has Sleeper Value Against Lions
4 years agoChicago Bears tight end Jimmy Graham will have a fantastic matchup Week 1 against the Lions. The former Pro Bowler was a huge disappointment in Green Bay the past two seasons and many national pundits think he is washed up. But Graham has drawn rave reviews during training camp for the Bears and head coach Matt Nagy will be making it a point to reincorporate the tight end position back into the offensive scheme. Graham will have a strong matchup against a Lions Defense that allowed the third most fantasy points to opposing tight ends in 2019. The Lions allowed the ninth fewest targets to the position but opposing passers completed 68.8% of their throws, averaging 10.28 yards per completion. Graham could easily find the end zone Week 1 and could post top-10 numbers among tight ends out of the gate.
