Fantasy Football: 10 Veterans Who Benefited From the NFL Draft
DeVante Parker appears set for a high-volume role in Miami. Which other veterans were positively impacted by their teams' 2018 drafts?

Hunter Henry, TE, Los Angeles Chargers

Antonio Gates' time with the Chargers is officially over. As a result, the stock of Hunter Henry gets a huge boost.

Henry has shown glimpses of greatness but has struggled to establish a defined role in the offense as Gates got work, especially in the red zone. With Gates removed from the equation and the Bolts not adding a tight end in the draft (they did sign Virgil Green), Henry should be close to an every-down player in what could be one of the league's best offenses.

Over the past three years, Chargers tight ends have totaled target market share numbers of 24.1%, 25.5%, and 20.7%. If Henry see the majority of those tight-end looks from Philip Rivers, he should feast.
