Investigating NFL Tight End Props for 2019

Tight Ends are becoming more influential parts to most NFL offenses due to the emphasis being put on the matchup advantages that athletic tight ends have over linebackers and safeties in coverage at times. This increase in receiving yards by some of the elite tight ends has resulted in these players being much more discussed than in years past. I expect there to be a few young tight ends to make the jump like George Kittle did last season.

David Njoku Over 650.5 Receiving Yards

David Njoku is one of the most athletic tight ends in football and he is also a great football player. The biggest question mark surrounding Njoku is likely the discussion surrounding his overall target share in the offense. As a player in fantasy, I am really high on Njoku’s prospects due to the Browns offense and I feel similar about a lot of Browns players this season.

As a receiver, I like the over here for Njoku due to the offensive philosophy of this team. Last season, Njoku had 639 receiving yards and I think that the addition of Odell Beckham will open up the field for Njoku for big plays.

In addition to Odell, the Browns also added offensive coordinator Todd Monken, who is an air raid coach. This should mean that the Browns are likely to be throwing the ball even more than they did last year. I expect Njoku to have a big season with multiple big plays downfield, opening himself up to reach 700+ yards

Evan Engram over 825.5 Receiving Yards

Evan Engram is one of the strangest bets on the board at any position due to his unique situation. Engram is an elite talent and I really think that the pure volume here should allow Engram to break this mark. Assuming that Engram can stay healthy, I expect him to average closer to 60 yards a game, which would result in 960 total yards.

The concern around Engram is the fact that the Giants receiving core and overall offense is incredibly sketchy to say the least. Golden Tate is suspended for the first 4 games and Sterling Shepard is still recovering from a hand injury that he suffered early in training camp.

The good news for Engram is that I don’t think that there are a ton of teams with elite coverage ability in the 1 on 1 game and I expect most defenses to make the Giants throw the ball. This would be incredibly beneficial for Engram, as I expect him to be relatively productive once he gets the ball in his hands.

Travis Kelce Over 1150.5 Receiving Yards

I think this is the best bet on the board for tight end props and it is not particularly close. Kelce accounted for 1336 receiving yards last season and the situation that he is in has basically not changed. The Chiefs added another deep threat in Mecole Hardman through the draft, but I still expect Kelce’s target share and production to be elite.

Kelce had a historic year by tight end standards and it would be unfair to ask for the same production again. However, I think it is reasonable to believe that he comes out this season like last season never ended.

I expect him to produce less, but why do we think that he should lose almost 200 yards receiving this year? I do not think that is reasonable barring injury and I just think the equity is too good to pass up here. Kelce’s role as an elite pass-catcher for this explosive has not changed in the slightest and I don’t expect his numbers to fluctuate either.
