Fantasy Football Tight End Streaming Week 5: Kraft Some Production
Welcome back to another edition of the tight-end streaming column, Mark Andrews managers. The landscape around the TE position has been pretty poor to this point of the season, though we did see plenty of familiar names near the top of the leaderboard last week, with plenty of options scoring actual, feasible, fantasy points. Let’s keep it up.
For streaming purposes, 4for4’s Schedule-Adjusted Fantasy Points Allowed (aFPA) is a metric we rely heavily on to determine weekly matchup strength. As the season progresses and more data is available, aFPA becomes more and more reliable, using rolling 10-week data. Targets and efficiency metrics are also considered when choosing weekly streamers.
To provide the advice you can implement, candidates for streaming must be rostered in no more than 40% of Yahoo! fantasy leagues.

Week 4 Recap
Nothing eye-popping here, but plenty of usable performances on a week that saw more options around the league score 6+ fantasy points than any other week to this point. It’s a low bar, but it’s certainly better than the litany of zeroes we were dealing with in the first month of the season.
In this space, we notched an overall TE2 and TE10 finish, with some veteran options keeping us out of the doghouse with passable floor performances.
