Week 10 at Seattle
If there's a 49ers player you might consider starting this week, it's Celek. He had just two receptions the last time out, but both went for touchdowns. Seattle has allowed eight touchdowns to opposing tight ends this season. Celek's value will depend on scoring and Blaine Gabbert, however.
Week 9 vs. Atlanta
With Vernon Davis now gone, Celek takes over as the No. 1 tight end in San Francisco. While that sounds nice, Blaine Gabbert is now the 49ers quarterback so Celek isn't somebody you want in your lineup.
Week 6 vs. Baltimore
Celek has had exactly three catches in all but one game this season and had a 3-26-1 line last week, scoring for the first time this season. If Vernon Davis is out again this week, his value takes a shot. But remember, Cleveland's tight ends hit the Ravens for a line of 10-152-1 last week. Celek isn't likely to mimic that, but he could be a decent bye-week start.
Week 5 at Giants
Celek has had three catches in three of four games, including three for 29 yards last week. But Vernon Davis could be back this week. While Celek leads the 49ers in catches among tight ends, Davis is obviously the better play if he is capable of suiting up. Three of the six passing touchdowns the Giants have allowed this season have come from tight ends.
