Ricky Seals-Jones, TE, Arizona Cardinals

DraftKings Price: $3,200

Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice...well, let's just put it this way: Ricky Seals-Jones has proven that he belongs in fantasy discussions on a weekly basis. The Arizona Cardinals tight end has found the end zone in each of Blaine Gabbert's starts, finishing with an incredible 20.4 and 17.2 points in Weeks 11 and 12, respectively.

Many bargain-bin tight ends are touchdown dependent, but Seals-Jones has proven to be a safety blanket for GOATbert, seeing 11 targets in the past two weeks and at least 50 yards in each of those games. The Los Angeles Rams' fantasy numbers seem to indicate that they've been good against the pass this season, yet it is hard to tell for sure given how poor they are against the run.

The Cards are likely to be forced to pass more than they might want to this week. Adrian Peterson failed to top two yards per carry in a Week 7 shutout loss to LA, and Gabbert isn't going to scare the defense enough to stop them from stacking the box. Gabbert will need to find another outlet to move the chains, and his recent rapport with Seals-Jones indicates that he could be the guy to do it.

There are many safer tight end options this week. Rob Gronkowski will likely Gronk against a Buffalo defense that he always Gronks. Delanie Walker and Jack Doyle will see heavy targets, and Zach Ertz is always in play. In the bargain bin, however, the former Texas A&M Aggies man stands out.
