Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft had a pedestrian night at the office in the Packers' 30-13 win over the Seattle Seahawks in Week 15. Kraft did not see a lot of volume, as he only had two passes come his way. He caught both for 34 yards as he was lost in the shuffle with Romeo Doubs (concussion) returning as another pass-catching weapon for quarterback Jordan Love. Kraft's fantasy value has been solid for much of the season so to leave this dud in the fantasy playoffs is a bit disappointing. The Packers head back home to Lambeau Field and will take on the New Orleans Saints in Week 16, where fantasy managers hope he is able to put forth more production. Consider Kraft a low-end fantasy TE1 for that matchup.
Tucker Kraft A Low-End TE1 Against Seattle In Week 15
Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft has been a solid fantasy tight end for much of the season and looks to keep that run going as the Packers face the Seattle Seahawks in Week 15. Kraft has put together three straight double-digit fantasy performances, including last week against the Lions where he scored a touchdown on three catches for 41 yards. With seven touchdown grabs this season, Kraft is tied with Mark Andrews for second in touchdowns among tight ends, only behind George Kittle. With Kraft getting in the end zone and earning some consistent volume for the Packers, Kraft is plenty startable in Week 15 for fantasy managers.
Tucker Kraft With 41 Yards, Touchdown Grab In Packers’ Defeat
Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft continued his fine fantasy season as he got into the end zone in the Packers' 34-31 loss to the NFC North-leading Detroit Lions in Week 14. Kraft caught a 12-yard touchdown pass from quarterback Jordan Love in the third quarter; his only touchdown pass of the night. With only 20 passing attempts, there wasn't much volume to be had by the Packers' pass-catchers, but Kraft reeled 3-of-5 targets for 41 yards. Next up for the Packers is a date with the Seattle Seahawks in Week 15 where Kraft should be considered a low-end TE1 for fantasy managers.
Tucker Kraft With A Tough Matchup In Week 14 Against Lions
Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft will have his work cut out for him in Week 14 as the Packers travel to Detroit to take on the division-leading Lions. Kraft has been a solidly producing fantasy tight end for much of the season and returned top-12 value at the position last week with a 6-78 line against the Miami Dolphins on Thursday Night Football. Up next are the Detroit Lions, who help Kraft in check in Week 9, to the tune of just four receptions for 34 yards. The Lions have given up the fewest fantasy points per game to the tight end position this season. If you're starting Kraft in fantasy lineups this week, you're hoping for a touchdown as a high-end streaming option.
Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft was involved plenty in the Packers' passing game as the team beat the Miami Dolphins 30-17 on Thanksgiving night. Kraft's penchant for gaining and earning volume was on full display as he earned seven targets, catching six of them for 78 yards; all team-highs on the night. Running hot and cold for fantasy purposes, this was the rare game where Kraft put up a usable stat line without scoring a touchdown, so this game could be some growth in Kraft's role moving forward. Looking at Kraft's next matchup in Detroit against the rival Lions, he should be considered a low-end TE1 for fantasy purposes.
Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft is a high-end TE2 for his outing against the visiting Miami Dolphins on Thanksgiving. Kraft had a stretch earlier this season between Weeks 4-8, where he was the TE4, but has seen his production tick down a bit as quarterback Jordan Love's pass attempts have scaled back amid a string of tough matchups. With wide receiver Romeo Doubs (concussion) ruled out for the matchup, Kraft and fellow pass-catchers Jayden Reed and Christian Watson should all get a slight bump in target share. However, fantasy managers can likely do better than the 24-year-old, as he's little more than a touchdown-dependent option unless the game evolves into a shootout. With two defensive units solid against the pass, it seems unlikely. He's RotoBaller's PPR TE14 in Week 13's ranks.
Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft found his way back into the good graces of fantasy managers as Kraft got into the end zone in the Packers' 38-10 rout over the San Francisco 49ers. Kraft did not earn a bunch of volume in the Packers' victory, as he caught both of his targets for 26 receiving yards, but his first catch was an 11-yard strike from quarterback Jordan Love to kick off the scoring for the Packers. There hasn't been much target volume to go around for the Packers, so Kraft has been more of a "touchdown-or-bust" tight end rather than an every-week starter. With the Packers hosting the Miami Dolphins on Thanksgiving in Week 13, Kraft is a high-end streaming tight end option for fantasy managers given that all 32 teams are playing next week.
Consider Tucker Kraft A High-End Streaming TE Against 49ers
Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft looks to get out of his production slump as the Packers host the San Francisco 49ers in Week 12. If you've started Kraft in fantasy football over the past couple of weeks, you've no doubt been disappointed. Just before the Packers' bye in Week 10, Kraft was held to four catches for 34 yards on six targets. Last week after the team's bye, Kraft was completely stymied with just one target and no catches. The Packers' offense has been in a funk lately with quarterback Jordan Love not throwing for double-digit touchdowns in the last three games. With the Packers set to tangle with a tough pass defense in the 49ers, Kraft is in the streaming category of fantasy tight ends this week, where you're hoping for a touchdown to make starting him worth it.
Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft was a non-factor in the Packers' 20-19 victory over the Chicago Bears in Week 11. Kraft only earned just one target, a short target that was intercepted by Chicago's Terell Smith in the second quarter. The lack of involvement was felt in the Packers' passing attack which only had 17 pass attempts through the entire game. With the number of quality pass-catching options available for quarterback Jordan Love, there will be games like this by Kraft. With the Packers heading back home to host the San Francisco 49ers in Week 12, Kraft should be considered a low-end TE1 for fantasy football.
Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft has been a very solid tight end for fantasy purposes this season and looks to keep up that standing when the Packers head to Chicago to take on the Bears in Week 11. Coming off the team's Week 10 bye week, Kraft is in a good spot to keep up his strong season where he's been a top-12 tight end in four of the last six games. While the target-earning potential hasn't quite been there for Kraft this season, he's making the most of his touches with four touchdowns in his past five games as a clear outlet for quarterback Jordan Love. The Bears are just middle of the road when it comes to defending tight ends as they're 15th in the NFL in tight end fantasy points allowed. Consider Kraft a low-end TE1 worth starting in the Packers' matchup with Chicago in Week 11.
