We are diving into some fantasy football content this offseason as we look to bring in all sorts of football fans to Vikings Wire. It is arguably the most popular game that is around football, so not dipping our toes into the proverbial pool wouldn't make sense.
What we will start with is some rookie profiles, and where they fit into the landscape of the team they were drafted by. Next up, New York Jets tight end Kenyon Sadiq.
Stat projections are done by ESPN's Mike Clay
The passing attack for the Jets is very much a hostile situation for fantasy players. Geno Smith is tasked with providing a lot of fantasy support to a handful of fantasy-relevant players. For Sadiq, working the middle of the field or short areas could benefit him as he could get extra targets as a result.
Having Geno Smith at quarterback is good for the Jets, but it is very much up in the air for everyone else. It is hard to gauge how much Sadiq will be used in the offense, especially as a rookie, so he could be avoided in re-draft. In deeper leagues, he is worth a stash in case someone gets injured, or Smith shows he can support more than just Garrett Wilson in the pass game.
