Gadsden faces committee risk with Kolar and Njoku additions; avoid in drafts.
Oronde GadsdenTE
Gadsden's ECR (TE20) exceeds his projection rank (TE27) by seven spots with 96.7 projected FPTS. JJ Zachariason will be avoiding him in drafts. While he had five TE1 weekly finishes in Weeks 6-18 last year, he finished only TE17 in fantasy points per game. During that sample, among 50 qualifying tight ends, he ranked 36th in target per route run rate, 15th in yards per route run, 22nd in first-read share, and 29th in first downs per route run. After Week 15, he failed to surpass a 70% route share in any game. The Chargers' additions of Charlie Kolar and David Njoku signal a tight end committee, which Zachariason has no interest in dealing with for fantasy purposes.
