Yahoo! Ownership: 30%
It is widely known that the New York Giants allow the most fantasy points to opposing tight ends.The number two team is not so obvious: the Denver Broncos. Through 11 games, the Broncos have given up an average of 5.4 catches and 70.2 yards per game to the position. In seven games, tight ends have racked up at least 70 yards with seven different players catching a touchdown against them. In Week 13, Julius Thomas will be the next tight end to get his shot against the Broncos.
Thomas has been on a bit of roll as well, catching 4 or more passes in three of his last four games. In those four contests, Thomas is averaging 4.3 catches, 43.5 yards, and 0.5 touchdowns per game. The seventh-year tight end will have a little more to prove as he faces the team that traded him away after posting back-to-back Pro Bowl seasons in 2013-14.
