This article references Martellus Bennett and more! Martellus Bennett hauled in five catches on 11 targets for 47 yards in Sunday?s game against Atlanta. Bennett put up the majority of those yards at the end of the game. For the majority of the matchup Bennett was a disaster. He had numerous drops and penalties that severely hampered Green Bay?s offense. This created enough distrust in Bennett that Green Bay started to utilize tight end Richard Rodgers more heavily, someone whom Aaron Rodgers has more trust in. The yardage total was unsurprising [...]Keep on reading: Martellus Bennett has Disappointing Week 2; Raises Concern Role May be Reduced

This article references Martellus Bennett and more! Martellus Bennett did not manage to accomplish much statistically in Week 1 against Seattle. While he served as useful option for Aaron Rodgers, he did not have meaningful fantasy production. Against a tough Seattle linebacker and safety group, he never really had a chance. That will change in Week 2 when Green Bay travels to Atlanta. Bennett will have his first chance to actually produce in [...]Keep on reading: Martellus Bennett Reasonable Option at Tight End in First Real Opportunity of the Season

This article references Martellus Bennett and more! Green Bay starting tight end Martellus Bennett has a particularly bad matchup in Week 1 against Seattle. Seattle?s entire linebacker corps has the size and coverage ability to shut down just about any tight end in the league, and Bennett will be no different. Bennett is likely to exceed season long projections. He is the premier red zone threat for a team that throws in the red zone more than any other. [...]Keep on reading: Martellus Bennett Not a Strong Option in Week 1

You know the fantasy football season is right around the corner when the first starting quarterback tears an ACL and the first top tailback gets suspended for off-the-field fiascos. Tight ends are not as valuable as quarterbacks, running backs and receivers in fantasy football, but the points they provide, especially in half-PPR leagues, can propel fantasy squads to victory and be an underrated factor in helping teams make the playoffs in their leagues. Rotoballer provides owners with a cont[...]Keep on reading: Half-PPR Rankings Analysis – Tight Ends

My dreams of playing in a mega-high stakes (jelly beans, of course) fantasy league were crushed when I didn't win the Powerball jackpot. My guess is you aren't that one lucky soul who won either so here you are slumming it with the rest of us. That's ok though, there's always the fantasy lottery. Besides, money can't buy happiness, right? Then again, there's that old cliche about preferring to cry on a yacht. Anyway, here we'll be taking a look at a few late round fliers, lottery tickets, if [...]Keep on reading: Late-Round Lottery Tickets to Target in Fantasy Drafts

This article references Martellus Bennett and more! Martellus Bennett made some comments earlier in the week about needing to get some reps with quarterback Aaron Rodgers in a preseason game in order to build chemistry. It seems like Rodgers and the Green Bay coaching staff heard him. Rodgers unexpectedly played and threw a touchdown to Bennett on his lone drive of the game. Bennett was able to use his size to easily out-jump a smaller linebacker. It is only the preseason, but it does indicate that Rodgers is likely to look for Bennett a lot in t[...]Keep on reading: Martellus Bennett Catches Preseason Touchdown; He’s Going to See a Bunch of Redzone Targets This Year

This article references aaron jones, Aaron Rodgers, Davante Adams, Deangelo Yancey, Eddie Lacy, Green Bay Packers, Jamaal Williams, Jared Cook, Jordy Nelson, Martellus Bennett, Mason Crosby, Randall Cobb, Ty Montgomery and more! The Green Bay Packers, along with a handful of other teams like the Pittsburgh Steelers, have consistently been front and center in the fantasy universe for the past eight or nine years. They have provided a slew of high producing fantasy options at multiple positions. 2017 projects to be no different, but turnover at many different positions has created more uncertainty than has existed in the past. One thing is for certain - the Packers still have one of the best quarterbacks in the game an[...]Keep on reading: 2017 NFL Team Outlook - Green Bay Packers

This article references Martellus Bennett and more! Green Bay Packers tight end Martellus Bennett caught just one pass for 13 yards in the first preseason game last Thursday against the Eagles. Normally, leaving Pats quarterback Tom Brady would constitute a downgrade, but Bennett left New England as a free agent and joined Aaron Rodgers and the Packers, where he will be the unquestioned No. 1 receiving tight end. The former Aggie, Bennett performed admirably filling in for an injured Rob Gronkowski in 2016, catching 55 passes for 701 yards and ca[...]Keep on reading: Martellus Bennett Catches One Pass In Preseason Opener
