BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: TE1
ANALYSIS: Miami Dolphins tight end Jonnu Smith continues to see usage in the passing game. He has seen at least six targets in four straight games while finishing as a top-15 fantasy tight end in three of the past four contests. On top of that, Smith just played a season-high 69% of the team's offensive snaps last week.
As a result, Smith will be a low-end TE1 option in 12-plus team leagues against the Rams in Week 10. Los Angeles has given up the seventh-most fantasy points per game to opposing tight ends this season. That secondary has also allowed five different tight ends to finish top-12 at the position through nine weeks.
Dolphins leaders in fantasy PPR points from only receiving production:
De'Von Achane (85.2)
Tyreek Hill (84.6)
Jonnu Smith (66.2)
Jaylen Waddle (65)— Ian Hartitz (@Ihartitz) November 4, 2024
Smith will be a high-floor fantasy option this week in a game that has a high over/under (50.5). Given that he has also caught nine passes in two games with Tua Tagovailoa back, the Dolphins tight end could be a sneaky start in Week 10.
