Tight End Depth- Ben Watson

Ben Watson recorded six receptions for forty-eight yards and a score Sunday against the Titans.

Analysis: Ben Watson now has two touchdowns in four games this year and his stock is on the rise. Watson was targeted nine times Sunday on his way to his third forty-five plus yard day of the 2011 season. Watson now has a staggering nineteen targets over his last two weeks for a total of eleven receptions. He’s going into a bye this week and now is the perfect time to pick up this underrated stud.

Watson is only owned in eight percent of ESPN leagues and with the bye week you should be able to add him to your fantasy stable with relative ease. Watson’s recent performance on the field should come as no surprise as Watson amassed 763 receiving yards last year and sixty-eight receptions. If the ground game continues to struggle in Cleveland, Ben Watson may become more than servicable depth at tight end in fantasy leagues.
