BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: TE1
ANALYSIS: It has been a nice start to the season for Cincinnati Bengals tight end Mike Gesicki. His 14 catches, 18 targets, and 156 receiving yards all rank top-4 among tight ends through three weeks. As a result, Gesicki has put together some solid fantasy performances over the past few weeks. The 28-year-old has finished as a top-12 fantasy tight end in back-to-back weeks.
Therefore, Gesicki is a solid TE1 option in 12-plus team leagues against a Panthers defense that has struggled to stop opposing tight ends to start the season. Carolina has allowed the third-most fantasy points to the position so far in 2024.
2024 Tight End Receiving Yardage Leaders 😮
1️⃣ Dallas Goedert - 239
2️⃣ 𝐁𝐫𝐨𝐜𝐤 𝐁𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐬 - 197
3️⃣ Mike Gesicki - 156
4️⃣ Isaiah Likely - 141
5️⃣ Hunter Henry - 136
6️⃣ Zach Ertz - 128
7️⃣ Cole Kmet - 128 pic.twitter.com/HyE7247W3f— Bleacher Nation Fantasy (@BN_Fantasy_) September 25, 2024
The only concern with Gesicki moving forward is his playing time. He has played 50% or less of the team's offensive snaps in all three games this season. However, he's certainly involved when he is on the field. So, there's no reason to panic about his snap share just yet. Fantasy managers should lock him into their lineups in a great matchup this weekend.
