BALLER MOVE: Add in 14+ Team Leagues
ROSTERED: 27% of Leagues
ANALYSIS: And after three weeks, Eric Ebron finally put it all together. What a relief, and what a chance to score you a streaming TE2 with upside to enter the TE1 realm on good matchups for free through waivers. Ebron had a plain-bad debut with Pittsburgh (one reception for 18 yards on two targets) but he stepped up a bit in Week 2 (7.3 PPR points) and finally found the end zone a big bag of fantasy points this past weekend.
Against Houston in Week 3, Ebron was targeted a season-high 7 times and hauled in 5 passes for 52 yards and a touchdown. The TE1 of the Steelers finished the game with 16.2 PPR points, more than doubling his best tally to date. More encouraging, he's been on the field for more and more snaps each passing week going from 40 to 50 and 60 this past Sunday.
With MNF still to be played (and featuring Travis Kelce and Mark Andrews), Ebron ranked as the TE3 of Week 3 only topped by Tyler Kroft (18.4 PPR) and Jimmy Graham (23.0 !!!). This is not far from the version of Eric Ebron we should expect weekly, though. He's not going to score 16 PPR points every game, but he should finish on the 10-to-16 clip constantly playing under QB Ben Roethlisberger. The Steelers face the 25th defense against TEs next weekend (Tennessee) so make adding Ebron a priority if you're streaming the position and looking for a starter.
