Draft note

by John Paulsen

Herndon is back after posting 39-502-4 as a rookie. Since 2000, that was the 14th-best fantasy season by a rookie tight end. The main worry is that Ryan Griffin had a great midseason stretch in 2019 and may siphon some snaps and targets away from Herndon. Early reports out of New York indicate that the Jets “can’t wait to unleash” Herndon this season, so his snaps should be safe.

Jets TE Ryan Griffin celebrates contract with another TD

Jets tight end Ryan Griffin celebrated his contract extension with another touchdown catch Sunday.

The Jets and Griffin agreed to a three-year contract worth up to $10.8 million on Saturday. He reached the end zone for a team-best fifth touchdown a day later in the Jets’ 34-3 win over the Raiders.

Fantasy Impact:

Griffin has been a huge factor for the Jets. The 29-year-old signed in July and was expected to hold the fort until Chris Herndon returned from his four-game suspension. Instead, injuries derailed Herndon and Griffin has been the Jets’ most consistent offensive player, the story said, especially as of late. For those looking for help at TE, this week may be the last chance to grab Griffin off the wire if he's still there.

NYJ TE Chris Herndon - 2020 Fantasy Football Outlook

Fantasy Upside
You have to go back to 2018 to see the potential Chris Herndon has in 2020. He had 39 catches for 502 yards and four touchdowns. Not bad for a rookie tight end with a rookie quarterback throwing to him. The most impressive part of Herndon's game was his ability to get downfield which is usually a wide receiver's role.

Fantasy Downside
Herndon played only 18 snaps in 2019 due to suspensions and injuries. He also is a Jet which should worry any fantasy owner about any of New York's players. It has struggled and that affects the skill players, even the ones with a positive track record.

2020 Bottom Line
Herndon was a potential break out candidate last season so that could carry over to 2020. He should get targets on a team that still has a weak receiving corp. His role in fantasy is a low-end TE2 so you he can probably be had in the late rounds for depth. Expect similar stats from his rookie year with a potentially higher ceiling than most backup tight ends.
