Trey McBride has had 5+ receptions in 9 straight games, ties Jason Witten for the 3rd longest streak by a TE in NFL history

A bit unlucky not to have two tds on Sunday, stupid penalty on the flipped pass before Dortsch scored a few seconds later
Yep, that gets me a win instead I have to hope for a few tackles from Parsons to put me over the top.

Nope. He had a 28% target share before. Prolly be at 35% now? Maybe higher. Who knows. He doesn't get his numbers way down the field where they can blanket coverage him and take him away. Dude is a man. A monster. A monster that is about to eat.

I have the same two players so I get the mild temptation to pivot but I wouldn't do it. McBride is balling and will be catching 10+ balls in this one barring something strange happening. Huge threat in the red zone for multiple tds as well.

I haven't read any updates on Benson but if he somehow plays, the offense is elevated and maybe that ends up helping McBride? Or is that out the window in terms of possibility regarding Benson's IR status?
You’re overthinking it.

Interesting. I view McBride (as a shareholder for the first time) as kind of a "cherry on the top" type of player if the rest of your team performs. He's never going to put up 40+ like Taylor and Gibbs which I had to put up with last week as my opponent had both of them. Honestly, until Brissett took over, I was wondering why i'd bothered to draft him. He was getting regularly outscored by Kraft and Warren who could have been drafted many rounds later.
Great player, a real leg-up on an opponent some weeks but hardly something to be scared of. I don't even think he's likely to ever come close to what Bowers did just 2 weeks ago. Like him a lot though. More nervous to face players like Kittle tbh, players like him on much better offenses than Arizona are scarier to me.

Huh. He’s averaging 23.7 pts per week in PPR since Jacoby took over 4 weeks ago.

Went fishing to McBride owner this morning. Gotta change bait if I got a chance. Ha ha

He's been great 4 straight weeks, hopefully Brissett stays upright and remains the QB. I wasn't dissing McBride at all by the way, he's been absolutely worth the early third redraft investment.
Not sure if this helps you, but I traded for McBride last week. Gave a RB-needy team Judkins and Vidal for him. He originally wanted Kyren Williams 1:1, but I countered with the other two instead.

Having a solid TE is such a big advantage, especially in larger leagues. Nice job getting McBride.

In a vacuum without knowing rosters, that's a good deal for you. McBride has to be a tough player to trade for right now, he's so clearly the TE1, particularly with the Kraft injury. Only Kittle, Warren and Bowers are anywhere close overall. I think only injury or Murray returning for some reason could derail him.
I agree...I'm always much happier with my teams that drafted an earlier-round TE. I hate surfing the WW and hoping to find a TE that's gonna get me 8 on a good week.
I mean, Bowers scored 52 points in my 1.5 TE premium league that week. The highest TE game before that was 40. I doubt anyone is coming even remotely close to that.

Stud TE who is an auto-start no matter the situation. He could still have a dud, but he should have a permanent spot in the lineup with little to no worry.

You’ve guaranteed Gadsden will outscore him

He may or may not, I just do not see McBride as a player that you start questioning whether to keep in your lineup.You’ve guaranteed Gadsden will outscore him

McBride is in a tier of his own at TE IMO, just below Bowers - Just is a target monster and he’s producing touchdowns this year.
As far as the 40+ point games, I’d be curious how many RBs, WRs and TEs have hit this threshold say, over the past 5 years.
My guess is this happens to the tight end position the least, since they often touch the ball the least of these 3 positions.
Just bc he ain’t the greatest generational guy we’ve seen in a decade doesn’t mean he can’t be great in his own right, especially given his now proven track record.
And he’s always healthy.
