Week 5 is upon us and, unfortunately, the tight end position has been a nightmare.

Fantasy Football Week 5 TE Streamers
Tucker Kraft Fantasy Outlook (38.2%)
After being relatively quiet for the first three weeks, Tucker Kraft went nuclear in Week 4, hauling in six receptions for 53 yards, a touchdown, and a two-point conversion. While Kraft can’t be trusted to see nine targets per game moving forward, it’s abundantly clear that the Packers have a consistent role for him in this offense. In the first three weeks, Kraft had two catches in each game and he appears to be a favorite target of quarterback Jordan Love. Although he can’t be trusted to have monster games every week, he certainly has a weekly role.
Taysom Hill Fantasy Outlook (28.3%)
After an injury kept him out in Week 3, Taysom Hill came back strong in Week 4, rushing for two touchdowns. Hill’s role in this offense is not of a stereotypical tight end as most of his value comes from his rushing. With that in mind, he averages almost five carries per game and is usually good for a target or two as well. With his extremely high ceiling and relatively safe floor, Hill is a solid fantasy football streamers option.
Tyler Conklin Fantasy Outlook (34.4%)
Tyler Conklin got off to a slow start in fantasy this year, but he has rebounded nicely over the past two weeks. In Weeks 3 and 4, he combined for nine catches off of 14 targets. Aaron Rodgers clearly has made it a point to feed Conklin the ball and that should continue moving forward. With all the issues surrounding the tight end position right now, there are not many available tight ends better than Conklin.
