Tim Wright (TE, NE) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ team leagues, continue monitoring in shallower formats

17% owned in Fleaflicker

ANALYSIS: Wright is someone I'd reserve for deeper leagues.  Last week, he showed what he is capable of (seven catches for 61 yards and a TD), but the problem is that he hasn't got a lot of opportunity.  Over the season, he's received 18 targets over six games (three per outing), and that's including the season-high of seven he managed last week.  This week, the Patriots will be facing the Broncos, currently allowing the eighth-most fantasy points to opposing TEs.  This presents a nice chance for Wright to show that he's the real deal.  My word of caution, though, is that he hasn't been consistently productive, and because of that I'd recommend him only in deep leagues or for those owners desperate for a bye-week fill-in.  If Wright continues to build upon last week and shows some consistency, I imagine you'll see me start to fully endorse him going forward.
