TE Upgrade or Sit Tight (1 Viewer)

[Popes]

Hi there, 

League Background- 12 team, .5ppr, 10 active players (1QB, 2RB, 3WRs, 1TE, Flex, K, DST) and 6 bench players. Our waiver wire is usually pretty bare given the amount of players on every roster but the .5 ppr has helped. Note: its an auction keeper league which is how I have a few players from the first few rounds of normal standard drafts.

So to the point, I like my team but am weak at TE, which is do in part to whiffing during our auction draft on RBs so I had to trade Gronk and Graham away. Previous trades included Gronk for Crowell/Sanders and Graham for Gore/C.Davis. Given my current lineup (below) do you advise sitting tight and using Clay as a high volume flier or should I trade a player for one of the bigger name tight ends that didn't perform week 1. I am a fan of Ertz as well but the other owner is a big philly fan which has made trade offers hard. Look forward to hearing any of your recommendations!

Current Team: Brady, Lynch, Crowell, OBJ, Baldwin, Fitz, Clay, Sanders, Tucker, SEA

BENCH: Martin(suspended), Gore, Forte, Burkhead, Breida, Corey Davis

Don't think you have the depth yet to go for a bigger name TE.  Maybe look around for guys like A. Hooper, C. Brate, Witten, etc and match up base your TE until you can make a move.  There are great articles here and around on streaming the position.

Not knowing who is out there on waivers I'd probably look there first even if you say it is pretty bare and drop Forte.  There has to be someone available that has upside. ASJ, a Ram TE or ???

I dont think you have the depth to deal for a TE, unless a multi player deal

Thank you for the great feedback. I was hoping Marty B would make it through the waiver last night but no go. I have been offered the following trade, what do you think?

I trade Sanders, Gore, and Clay and receive Kelce and JStew. 

I think its fair but not sure if I want to lose Sanders bc most of the other quality wrs are on benches. If I did do the trade I could pick up Taylor Gabriel or Zay Jones as a FA. They probably the only wr that would be worth picking up. 

Sit tight or make the trade?

If I do sit tight, TEs that are currently FA include: Hooper, Brate, Henry, Witten, and Kittle
