Jake Butt (TE, DEN) - Week 1 Waiver Wire Pickups

BALLER MOVE: Add in 12+ Team Leagues

OWNED IN: 5% of Leagues

ANALYSIS: Denver Broncos tight end Jake Butt may quickly be on the minds of fantasy owners. While the Broncos may let Jeff Heuerman “start” at the beginning of the season, it should only be a matter of time before Butt asserts himself as Denver’s feature TE.

Butt's draft stock and subsequent fantasy buzz fell due to a torn ACL in his final collegiate game, but he is over a year removed from that and could be Case Keenum’s new Kyle Rudolph prototype in the Mile High City. He is only owned in a small group of leagues, but will quickly be owned in most.
