Scouting report

CLE TE David Njoku - Week 10 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 10 at Baltimore Ravens

Back to back weeks with a touchdown have David Njoku back in the mix as a starting tight end in fantasy, and he’s a nice streaming option if he’s available for you and you need to replace Travis Kelce or Dallas Goedert. Njoku has seen at least six targets in three straight games. Even if you don’t have those top tight ends, Njoku is still a nice option this week as the Browns may want to ride the hot hand in a key matchup with the Ravens.

CLE TE David Njoku - Week 9 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 9 vs. Arizona Cardinals

Eight targets and a touchdown for David Njoku as he was a very nice safety valve for P.J. Walker last week against the Seahawks. Deshaun Watson is back which is good news for Njoku. He’s a borderline starting tight end this week.

CLE TE David Njoku - Week 8 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 8 at Seattle Seahawks

With P.J. Walker in at quarterback, David Njoku became a nice target. He saw a season-high nine targets and caught five of those for 54 yards. Walker is starting again this week, so Njoku has some sleeper potential. Still, he’s a TE2 against a good Seattle defense and having to play in Seattle, which is always a tough place to play.

CLE TE David Njoku - Week 7 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 at Indianapolis Colts

With or without Deshaun Watson, David Njoku hasn’t been putting up huge numbers this season. He still has yet to hit 50 yards in a game. Maybe Watson returning will help, but at this rate, Njoku is stuck as a TE2. He can be considered as a streaming and daily option this week with six teams on a bye, but even at that, it’s a gamble.

CLE TE David Njoku - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 vs. San Francisco 49ers

Rookie quarterback Dorian Thompson-Robinson found a nice safety net in David Njoku in Week 4. Now it’s P.J. Walker under center this week with Deshaun Watson out again with a shoulder injury. The downside is that Njoku gets to see Fred Warner and one of the best linebacker rooms in the NFL. Njoku is a low-end TE2 this week.

CLE TE David Njoku - Week 4 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 4 vs. Baltimore Ravens

It’s been a bit of a disappointing start for David Njoku. Last week, he had just 20 yards on four catches. Quarterback Deshaun Watson is starting to build a connection with Elijah Moore, which may push Njoku down a little bit. He’s fallen down the board a bit as well in fantasy, no longer a sure fire TE1 option. But for those that start more than one tight end, he can be okay this week.

CLE TE David Njoku - Week 3 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 3 vs. Tennessee Titans

The Browns use David Njoku quite a bit in the passing game in terms of allowing him to run routes (he has run a route on 75% of Cleveland's dropbacks). But he has seen just seven targets in two games. Tennessee presents a favorable matchup this week as Cleveland could throw the ball a bit more after losing Nick Chubb. That's enough to at least put Njoku on the border of being a TE1 given the depth of the position and his usage in the offense.
