DraftKings Main Slate for Week 12 - Tight End (TE)

The data support Kelce's production, which is in play whether or not it is there. The #Panthers have allowed 10+ points to TEs since Week 6, except for last week's Theo Johnson, who scored 7 points (solid production for him). Kelce's mark is 23 points. #Chiefs

Brock Bowers continues to eat, scoring 10+ points in the last five weeks, 16+ points in four of the previous five weeks, and 34 points last week. His price is climbing, so he's still flex-worthy if you can't fit him in the tight end slot against the #Broncos, who he scored 23 points against in Week 5. #Raiders

The #Packers haven't allowed much to TEs, but George Kittle scored 14+ in his last five healthy games. His mark is 24 points, and he practiced in full to end the week. #49ers

Chig was a favorite player to utilize last year. He was always cheap and could find a floor toward his mark. This year, his snap count has been down to limit that exposure. Last week, he snapped 70%, an uptick from his 58% snap count on the season. The #Texans limited him to 6 points in each game last season, but with a mark of 11, that's not a bad outcome. They've allowed that or better in the previous two weeks. Fair dart. #Titans

While Sam LaPorta has been quiet all season, he's also produced 15 and 16 points in two of his last three games. Some tend to ignore those players since he's coming off of injury, but he practiced in full all week. His price is after a 17-point mark against the #Colts, who limited production in the last two weeks but also have allowed splashes of 16+ in four games this season. #Lions

Even with Tommy Tremble's return in Week 8, Ja'Tavion Sanders snapped 70% over that time, including 88% last week. He's scored 8+ points in four of the last five weeks, including 12 points twice. His mark is 13 points against the #Chiefs, who allowed 8+ points since Week 5, except against Adam Trautman, who doesn't produce much anyway—solid shot to build around. #Panthers

By the numbers, the #Broncos' TEs land the best matchup against the #Chiefs, who allowed 25+ points in the last three weeks. Previously, Adam Trautman was the go-to in this situation, but unfortunately, now there are two viable (or not viable) tight ends for the #Broncos. It'll be hard to chase either of these two, but a 2.6k or 2.7k dart won't end the world if the lineup is solid. I'd lean toward Trautman. #Broncos

In two of the last four weeks, the Dolphins have allowed Brock Bowers and Trey McBride 34 and 24 points, respectively. In the other two games, they allowed Davis Allen 8 points and the Bills' TEs a combined 15 points. The vulnerability to the position opens the door for Hunter Henry, who has scored 9+ points in four of the last five weeks, including 12 points in two games and 17 points in one. At an extreme discount, Austin Hooper scored 7 and 9 points in the last two weeks while snapping 50%. He provides lesser comfort to Henry's 88% snap count, but he's producing with his time and could surprise. #Patriots

Trey McBride has kept his floor of 10+ in the last five weeks. While it's short of his mark of 22 points, and the #Seahawks haven't allowed much production this season or historically to McBride, he's always in play. #Cardinals

While the data isn't trending down for TEs against the #49ers, the receiver data points to the inside, which was successful in Weeks 5-7 for TEs, scoring 10-12 points. Kraft had a solid matchup last week and dudded with zero. Most will emotionally fade him, which presents a contrarian play at a fair price. The #Packers are hard to predict, so this promotion is more of an opportunity if it lands in your lineup not to steer away from him due to last week. Emotions get the best of us, but higher emotional intelligence always prevails. #Packers

Theo Johnson snapped 88% in the last three weeks and 92% last week while scoring 6, 14, and 7 points. He's priced below 3k, chasing a mark of 11 points against the #Buccaneers, who allowed 7+ points since Week 4, 13+ in six games, and 20+ in three of the last four games. Tommy DeVito could lean on the tight end with the QB change in New York—sneaky play. #Giants

With Jake Ferguson out, Luke Schoonmaker lands at the bare minimum 2.5k price tag against the #Commanders, who allowed 10+ points in the last three weeks. He scored 11 points last week in relief duty and has done well when provided the opportunity. He has a 10-point mark, which is very likely. #Cowboys
