Austin Seferian-Jenkins - What do you think? (1 Viewer)

[TartanLion]

Have Graham and Watson right now but thinking I might drop Watson and put ASJ straight into my lineup for this week 

 

[TripleThreat]

Dropping Fleener for him, I like his upcoming schedule. Still have Graham on the bench.  

 

[rickyg]

Again the key here is McCown.  We know he lives to throw to the te.  Just like Watson is a good bet BC flacco loves to theownto the te.  Except ASJ is younger and more talented than Watson.  Albeit more brittle.  

 

[Rhythmdoctor]

Starting him this week over Teal Julius.  Anyone else taking the plunge?

Yep. Starting ASJ in several leagues, mainly as a Reed replacement but also over Henry in a league or 2. 

 

[The Frankman]

The Jets declared QB Christian Hackenberg, TE Will Tye, RB Matt Forte, CB Derrick Jones, TE Jordan Leggett, OLB Josh Martin and T Brandon Shell inactive against the Jaguars in Week 4.

With Tye being a healthy scratch, that's a good sign this could be the week Austin Seferian-Jenkins gets it going. The Jaguars have been 29th against tight ends in PPR league so far, so give ASJ a look if you're looking to take a chance.

ASJ will get pretty much all the TE snaps now.

EDIT:

Austin Seferian-Jenkins is expected to get extra snaps with the Jets declaring Will Tye inactive.

Last week, Tye saw 22 snaps compared to ASJ's 48 and Neal Sterling also getting seven. With Tye gone, Seferian-Jenkin's snap share should be over the 76 percent from last week and he could have some extra targets going his way with Matt Forte (toe) out today. He's a solid streaming option for those with tight end concerns.

 

[The Frankman]

From the little I've seen of the Jets game... they're asking him to block a lot. Going to OT he's 4/46 so far, not sure how many targets. McCown has been abysmal.

 

[The Frankman]

Jets waived TE Will Tye.

With Austin Seferian-Jenkins active and cooking, Tye was a healthy scratch for Week 4. The ex-Giant caught four passes in three games.

Wow... so it's basically rookies behind him now. ASJ now is a legit upside TE2 with TE1 potential, weekly floor of 4-5 based on volume.

 

[The Frankman]

ESPN New York expects the Jets to feature Austin Seferian-Jenkins in Week 5 against the Browns.

Seferian-Jenkins has been one of Josh McCown's top targets since returning from suspension. He played on 77 percent of snaps last week and should continue to see a bigger role. Seferian-Jenkins has blowup potential in a matchup with a Cleveland secondary that's allowed a league-high 31 receptions and four touchdowns to tight ends.

Here we go.

 

[rickyg]

Here we go.

After losing eifert to suckage and injury I could really use that blow up game and he could be this year's gary barnidge.  But better. 

 

[Binky The Doormat]

Have Clay and will probably start him ...but damn I am so close to sticking ASJ in there before kick off.  Clay has a tough match up with Cincy #4 against TEs ...

I have Ertz who is up against the #3 TE Def, but I know I can't sit him.  I am having a really tough time setting my lineup this week, in part because i want so bad to get ASJ in there.  I am sitting Gore who has a great matchup, and sitting Crabtree coming off an injury with EJ at QB,  (TE premium league)  Gore could replace Howard, but I just don't feel good about it.  So tough this week.  Fantasy football is fun when you make the right choice, and so annoying when you make the wrong choice.

ASJ has to be the #1 target on the Jets and Cleveland has been putrid against TE for years,  I don't know how you sit him.  Great play in Daily also.

 (cynic viewpoint:  fantasy karma says he will go 2-17-0)

 

[Eminence]

I'm starting him. It's him of Gates, what would you do?

Browns are supposed to suck against TE.

 

[mr roboto]

Reed, Henry, ASJ. 

So much talent. So little production. 

 

[TripleThreat]

He’s had pretty good targets his first two weeks back (6 & 4). His great matchup this week means I’m starting him over Graham (11 & 6) who has a tough matchup. 

 

[TripleThreat]

Reed, Henry, ASJ. 

So much talent. So little production. 

With three different reasons to boot. 

 

[mr roboto]

With three different reasons to boot. 

Welcome to my dynasty TE squad. Previously featuring Hernandez, Finley, and Gresham. 

 

[Slider]

7 for 100 with a TD today. ?

 

[Insein]

Starting him because of Gronk. It's all right there for him to have a huge day. Which makes me believe he will just have the same kind of day he's been having. Just hoping he squeezes a TD in there.

6-65-1

Same boat. At least his floor seems nice.

But my luck with spot starts this year hasn’t been too nice.

 

[BobbyLayne]

Have Clay and will probably start him ...but damn I am so close to sticking ASJ in there before kick off.  Clay has a tough match up with Cincy #4 against TEs ...

Starting him over Witten. Have Eifert in 1 of 2 IR slots; would prefer to drop him outright if ASJ starts putting together good weeks.

 

[Milkman]

This is his last shot at staying in the league. He's been a disappointment so far but not because of what I've seen on the field. He's one of the better TE prospects to come along in the last 10 years. Lets see if he grew up and got the help he needed. He could be one of the best TE in the league......

 

[Raback]

He’s had pretty good targets his first two weeks back (6 & 4). His great matchup this week means I’m starting him over Graham (11 & 6) who has a tough matchup. 

Same here

 

[TwinTurbo]

yeah this is what he gets you.

 

[rickyg]

This sucks.  

 

[The Frankman]

McCown and the pressure are not helping. I see ASJ in to block more than a few times.

 

[TwinTurbo]

You look at players like Brate that are not flashy but flat out produce vs. guys like ASJ or Ebron that jump out of the gym but always find a way to disappoint.

Yeah but it's not about ASJ it's the dumpster fire that is the NYJ offense. 

 

[az_prof]

Yeah but it's not about ASJ it's the dumpster fire that is the NYJ offense. 

Right. The Jets overall offense is so bad and the QB play so bad that it is hard to judge ASF. 

 

[The Frankman]

Yeah but it's not about ASJ it's the dumpster fire that is the NYJ offense. 

This. I've seen ASJ open more than once and McCown isn't getting the ball there.

 

[mr roboto]

Hoping for Petty. He's not great but takes chances. He fed Anderson last year. 

 

[The Frankman]

And there is the red zone TD that we've been looking for...

 

[az_prof]

ASF with the TD!  Dang I wish I had started him.

 

[BobbyLayne]

:confetti:

 

[Ridcully]

Woohoo.  He's still got a 2nd TD coming in the 4th quarter...just wait!

 

[rickyg]

Yeah baby now we are talking!!!

 

[The Frankman]

ASJ is leading the team in targets with 7. They are definitely targeting him now.

 

[Insein]

Got what I expected. I'm happy. 

 

[Stompin' Tom Connors]

I think I underestimated him. Solid and looking like consistent contributor to this offense.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Not exactly the smorgasbord we were expecting based on the comments about ASJ being “featured”, but the TD was nice.

actually worked out really lucky for me. I didn’t trust MBryant with the flu so I picked up ASF as a flex player with high hopes in a league I’ve got Brate/Clay. 

Lost Clay so ASF plugs right in as a BYE week flex & a TE1-2 playing the matchups.  

 

[BigTex]

I’m so glad I kept him over J. Smith during cut-down time at the beginning of the year.

im starting him along with Kelce from here on out.

Dude is money!

Tex

 

[Milkman]

I vaguely remember some guy on here claiming ASJ was better than Ebron and everybody was laughing at him. I wonder if anybody who ownd Ebron now would reject a ASJ for Ebron offer? Lolol

 

[BigTex]

ASJ just got robbed!!! Wow are you kidding!?!?!?

Tex

 

[NREC34]

Wow I'm still shocked and dumbfounded by that call. Unreal. 

 

[BigTex]

Wow I'm still shocked and dumbfounded by that call. Unreal. 

Are we missing something???? He had complete control the entire time right?

Tex

 

[jbradford787]

Wow I'm still shocked and dumbfounded by that call. Unreal. 

That was about a 10 point swing for me too... From about +8 to - 2.

 

[NREC34]

Are we missing something???? He had complete control the entire time right?

Tex

He bobbled it. Then regained control and touched the pylon. That's what it looked like to me at least.  

 

[The Frankman]

Absolute highway robbery.

There is no clear and concise evidence of a fumble and the ball out of bounds before recovery.

Horrible call!

Tex

 

[rickyg]

Unreal.   One of the worst calls I have ever seen in the NFL.  Should have had a 2 td day!
