📅 Weekly Recommendation History
Start LaPorta this week — he's getting a lot of looks from his quarterback and draws a really soft matchup against Baltimore. Detroit spreads the ball around so touchdowns can be hit-or-miss, but he should give you steady points.
He’s getting lots of targets and looks like the quarterback’s go-to option again. Playing at home in the dome against Chicago in what could be a high-scoring game means he should keep catching passes, so he’s an easy, low-risk start.
Start Sam LaPorta this week — he should catch a lot of passes in a matchup where the Packers have given up big plays to tight ends and the game looks set to score a lot. That said, Detroit has a crowded passing game and some coaching and line changes, so if he looks great early, think about trading him for a more reliable player.
Draft him in the middle rounds — he finished strong last year and gets a lot of chances near the goal, so he could be your starting tight end. He’s a bit risky because Detroit has many pass catchers, a new coach, and some small injuries in his past, but he’s worth grabbing before the final rounds.
