Jace Amaro (TE, NYJ) - Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team PPR Leagues

Owned in 9% of Fleaflicker leagues

ANALYSIS: It was Amaro that led all tight ends in targets and receptions in Week 6 (as in all tight ends in all of fantasy football). He even went in for a score, despite just 68 yards on 10 receptions. He also had another easy catch for 10+ yards which he dropped. Amaro put up really big numbers in college, and I love his talent overall. With such a weak group of WRs on the New York Jets, it's no surprise Amaro is getting targeted so much by Geno Smith. He needs a safety valve and Amaro has been providing him with that when dropping back to pass. The Patriots will have Darrelle Revis shadowing Eric Decker in Week 7, which should again make Amaro the security blanker for Geno in the passing game. I am certain they will look to stop Amaro as well, but he will definitely see a decent number of targets again. If you are hurting at tight end right now, and play in a deeper PPR league, you could do worse than taking a flier on Amaro off the Week 7 waiver wire.
