Week 14 offered up a painful reminder to many fantasy owners that they cannot afford to have their star players rack up close to a goose egg and expect to win.
That presents a potentially major issue for Jimmy Graham's fantasy owners because of his highly inconsistent production of late. Graham scored 22, 10 and 12 points in Weeks 9, 11 and 13, respectively, but sandwiched those contests around point totals of 3, 4, 4 and 1 in Weeks 8, 10, 12 and 14, respectively.
Given the dearth of quality starting candidates at tight end, keeping Graham out of the starting lineup would normally not be a consideration, but that option has to be on the table, considering the brutal tight end coverage schedule Seattle has over the next two weeks, with matchups against the Los Angeles Rams and Arizona Cardinals.
So should fantasy owners risk a potentially low point total with Graham, or should they aim to go with other tight end options in Weeks 15-16?
