Ladarius Green, TE, Pittsburgh Steelers

Returning from injury last week, Ladarius Green played only 16% of the Steelers' offensive snaps. Playing him this week requires a bit of faith that his snaps will increase as he gets comfortable being back on the field, but he has a lot of upside with the added bonus of potential developing into a weekly fantasy starter at tight end in the Steelers' high-powered offense.

Green has shown strong efficiency in the past, ranking 10th in Reception NEP per target in 2015 among the 25 tight ends with at least 50 targets. In 2014, he checked in 11th among the 48 tight ends with 25-plus targets.

Combining that efficiency with a terrific matchup -- the Browns rank 31st against the pass and have given up the most fantasy points to opposing tight ends this season -- gives Green big-time upside, especially if he sees a bump in snaps.
