BALLER MOVE: Start in 18+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: TE1
ANALYSIS: Seattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant has not been a strong fantasy option this year, finishing outside the top 25 at the position in three of four games. The only solid game the 26-year-old had was back in Week 3 when he totaled six catches for 60 yards. However, last week, Fant only caught two passes for 25 yards while seeing a season-low two targets.
As a result, he'll be a low-end TE1 option in deeper formats against the Giants in Week 5. New York has done a solid job at preventing big fantasy games to opposing tight ends this season, but just last week, Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson caught a season-high seven passes.
The highest-graded Seahawks in Week 3 vs the Dolphins:
🥇 Noah Fant - 83.7
🥈 Johnathan Hankins - 78.5
🥉 Tyrel Dodson - 77.3
🏅 Zach Charbonnet - 74.5
🏅 Geno Smith - 73.5(min. 25 snaps) pic.twitter.com/A2WVEPGjD9

So, Fant has some fantasy potential in 18-plus team leagues this weekend. Nonetheless, he is the clear fourth option in Seattle's offense -- behind DK Metcalf, Tyler Lockett, and Jaxon Smith-Njigba -- and shouldn't be started in most other leagues.
