Week 14 FanDuel Tournament Pivots

Tight End

Chalk

Tight end is probably going to be a three-man position this week. We have, at the top of the price range, Jimmy Graham ($6,600) and Tyler Eifert ($6,700) and then Ladarius Green at $5,800.

Other players might carry elevated ownership, but odds are these three are the most popular.

Pivots

Delanie Walker ($6,200) - The Denver Broncos are 17th against first-string tight ends, per our DFS tools, and they're easily the toughest pass defense in football based on NEP. That suggests that -- if Tennessee moves the ball through the air -- it'll be through Walker.

His 24.42% target market share in his past three games is tops among tight ends on the main slate, but he'll carry minimal ownership given the matchup and price relative to the chalky options.

Cameron Brate ($5,600) - It's easy to like C.J. Fiedorowicz, but at $5,100, he's not quite a direct pivot from Green at $5,800. Brate, though, does fit the bill.

His 17.53% target market share in his past three games isn't stellar, but the matchup against the New Orleans Saints sure is. They're 13th against tight ends in terms of fantasy scoring, but 3rd against the run by NEP since Week 7 and 26th against the pass in that stretch. Brate also is a great pivot from Evans if the scores go his way rather than Evans'.
