BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: TE1
ANALYSIS: Cole Kmet is coming off his best game of the season, as he caught ten passes for 97 yards and a touchdown last week against the Colts.
Kmet had struggled through the first two weeks with just six catches total but seemed to finally find some chemistry with rookie quarterback Caleb Williams.

• 74.1 PFF grade (5th for TEs)
• 73.4 receiving grade (9th)
• 65.4 run-blocking grade (11th)
• 15 catches (3rd)
• 128 receiving yards (T-6th)
• 0 drops on 17 targetsHe’s the strong security blanket a rookie QB needs. pic.twitter.com/c4itGGYOur

Keenan Allen should return this week to give Williams another option over the middle of the field, but expect Kmet to continue to be involved in the game plan. We know rookie QBs like their tight ends and often look for them when pressured, so perhaps Williams has found his safety blanket in Kmet.
The matchup this week couldn't be better, as the Rams have allowed the second-most fantasy points to tight ends this season. Fire up Kmet with confidence this week; he's one of only a few in the position who have shown much upside this season.
