Barnidge had another impressive showing in Week 5 against the Ravens, giving him 319 yards and three touchdowns over the last three games.
The 30-year-old Barnidge had three career touchdowns prior to this season, so this emergence came out of nowhere. Catching passes from someone as unpredictable as Josh McCown, Barnidge could disappear as quickly as he broke out.
A tight end with no track record and an inconsistent quarterback cannot be trusted on a weekly basis. He may just stick around for the rest of the season, but there is too much uncertainty to take take chance. Dangle Barnidge before his "elite" fantasy football disappears.
