This worries me as Seattle, although letting up 4th most FPPG to TE, were able to shut down Greg Olsen(also the teams #1 option). I'm debating Seferian Jenkins over Kelce in a possibke shootout.he played alot of snaps last week. bills just focused on taking him out of the game.
Great info. Thanks!From rotoworld:
Anthony Fasano (knee) is not practicing Wednesday.
Fasano has a bruised knee. His status for Week 11 is uncertain. If Fasano can't go, Travis Kelce could see a much-deserved uptick in snaps. No. 3 tight end Demetrius Harris broke his foot in Week 10 and was sent to injured reserve. Nov 12 - 12:52 PM

uhh, just play olsen every week. hes on pace for like 80 catches and 8 tds.I'll be guessing wrong between Kelce and Olsen for the rest of the year I'm sure.
Right. There are 5 TEs that have separated from the pack: Graham,Gronk, JT, Gates and Olson.uhh, just play olsen every week. hes on pace for like 80 catches and 8 tds.I'll be guessing wrong between Kelce and Olsen for the rest of the year I'm sure.
Please don't play Fasano. Would make my deicision between Allen and Kelce much easier.From rotoworld:

I wouldn't call it "shut down" Olsen just stayed in to block on the majority of the snaps that gameThis worries me as Seattle, although letting up 4th most FPPG to TE, were able to shut down Greg Olsen(also the teams #1 option).

i have the same two TEs. If Fasano doesn't get ruled out, I'm probably starting Allen.Please don't play Fasano. Would make my deicision between Allen and Kelce much easier.From rotoworld:

I have the same situation as well. I'm starting Allen no matter what. I'm still feeling the sting starting Kelce during Gronk's bye week. Allen almost never has a bad game. Kelce is too erratic to count on. I'm trusting the TE catching passes from Andrew Luck over the TE catching passes from Alex Smith.i have the same two TEs.

That's how I have it right now. But would definitely go Kelce if Fasano is out. Would hopefully mean way more looks for Kelce.i have the same two TEs.

And so might Kelce if Fasano doesn't playI wouldn't call it "shut down" Olsen just stayed in to block on the majority of the snaps that gameThis worries me as Seattle, although letting up 4th most FPPG to TE, were able to shut down Greg Olsen(also the teams #1 option).

the Chiefs OLine is better than the Panthers. So is our local HS team.And so might Kelce if Fasano doesn't playI wouldn't call it "shut down" Olsen just stayed in to block on the majority of the snaps that gameThis worries me as Seattle, although letting up 4th most FPPG to TE, were able to shut down Greg Olsen(also the teams #1 option).

I like Kelce and all, but no need to get crazy. If anything, hope he has a great game and maybe you can deal him before your trade deadline.I've only started Kelce once, Week four when Julius Thomas was on a bye (23.30 points).
I'm strongly considering him this week. Better match-up, home v. road, Fasano Q + 3rd string TE out.
We don't know for sure increased snap count is going to mean more targets, but everything is trending the right way for Travis.
I figure the idea is that by this time, most of the people in this thread are Kelce owners, and likely ones who have been stashing him in hopes that he has a breakout week. Each week that has gone by has crushed these hopes more, so this is pretty exciting news.I like Kelce and all, but no need to get crazy.

Was just a suggestion, as personally I wouldn't start anyone over Thomas not names Graham or Gronk.Trade deadline is tomorrow, bro.I like Kelce and all, but no need to get crazy.

While there's only a couple VOLUME + TD elite TEs, there are plenty of VOLUME (Olsen, Black Unicorn) or TD (Julius, Gates, Allen) TEs. That's two-thirds of the league.
What does Kelce offer that differentiates him from a FF perspective? He's low volume and has, what,54 TDs? Nice but nothing to pay a premium to acquire.
Tough finding a trade partner to move Travis. Dude is a great athlete and has tremendous upside. But this year he was late round flyer who turned into a low end TE1. What can you get for that? Somebody who will function as your RB/WR 4? I'd rather hold as my expensive insurance policy to JT.
Depth doesn't win championships, but I've had a hard time moving Kelce despite sending out many offers.
Still teetering here with the same players..Watching Fasano's health carefully today. If he's out of the way, I'm starting Kelce over Allen.
I like Allen a bunch, but Kelce finally capturing the lion's share of opportunities in a Smith driven O combined with SEA's difficulty covering TEs is just too rich for me to bypass. Would totally understand if you went with Allen though.Still teetering here with the same players..Watching Fasano's health carefully today. If he's out of the way, I'm starting Kelce over Allen.
I see just three catches on the box score. Was he targeted a little more with Fasano out, or is Andy still thinking he's simply not necessary to the offense?Wow!~ That was underwhelming...........
Don't be so hasty, the Chiefs still have two games with the Raiders!It may be time to say goodbye to Mr Kelce. At this point in the season I need guys who can put up some fantasy points when I need it. Today was a perfect chance and he came up empty. Was he benched after his fumble?
Travis Kelce played on 50-of-52 snaps (96.1 percent) in Sunday's win over the Seahawks.
Kelce's previous season-high for snaps was 66.1 percent. The playing time is encouraging even if his box score (3-37-0 on five targets with one lost fumble) was discouraging on a day Alex Smith only attempted 16 passes. Kelce was asked to execute just 15 pass routes as the Chiefs took the air out of the ball. If Anthony Fasano's knee injury keeps him out Thursday night, we'd fire up Kelce again as a reasonable TE1 in the hopes a more pass-happy gameplan is needed.
