BALLER MOVE: Must-Start
POSITIONAL VALUE: TE1
ANALYSIS: If you're lucky enough to have drafted, traded for, or picked up off waivers Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Evan Engram, you're probably going to want to put him in your starting lineup and not take him out for the rest of the season. Some big developments have made his value shoot up.
⭐️ Evan Engram ⭐️
Engram is a TOP-5 fantasy TE for the rest of the season 📈
🔥 35% target rate
🔥 23% target share
🔥 #1 option with Brian Thomas Jr. injured
🔥 Christian Kirk OUT for the year
🔥 Jaguars’ offense plays from behind A LOT#DUUUVALpic.twitter.com/B3EtVTGf8Z— FANTASY UMPIRE (@FantasyUmpire) October 30, 2024
JAX's main slot wide receiver, Christian Kirk (collarbone), is now out for the remainder of the season after breaking his collarbone in Week 8. When Kirk isn't able to play, Jags QB Trevor Lawrence throws the ball to Engram a lot more. Much of the driving force behind No. 17's TE2 overall season in 2024 was the absence of Kirk.
You should expect elite volume for Engram for the rest of the season. He and rookie WR Brian Thomas Jr. are the only two pass-catchers left on the team who have produced at a high level this season. Another PPR-god season could be in the works for the eighth-year TE, and you won't want to miss it, regardless of matchup.

The wide receiver position has an advantage over the running back position in PPR scoring formats, typically.

Not every WR is like this, though, […]
