C.J. Uzomah (TE, CIN) - Week 11 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 14-Team Leagues

OWNED IN: 30% of Leagues

ANALYSIS: A.J. Green is going to miss at least another game or three due to his foot injury, and Cincinnati’s tight end Tylers (Eifert and Kroft) are out with their own injuries. That leaves C.J. Uzomah as one of the few pass catchers quarterback Andy Dalton can rely on other than breakout receiver Tyler Boyd.

Uzomah has to find open areas against division rival Baltimore’s defense, a unit that is ranked second against the pass but has allowed touchdowns to tight ends in two of its past three games. Uzomah’s schedule gets more favorable after the Ravens as four of the following five games are against pass defenses ranked in the lower half of the league. Pick him up as a low-cost, low-risk option who can grind out 35-50 yards every week with the possibility of a touchdown every other week.
