Nick Vannett, Seattle Seahawks

Yahoo! Ownership: 3%

Following Will Dissly's knee injury, Nick Vannett has the tight end job in Seattle all to himself. Over the last two games, Vannett has been on the field for over 80% of the offensive snaps. Even with the Seahawks' passing attack taking a backseat to the running game -- 142 pass attempts compared to 143 rushes -- Vannett has managed to stay fairly busy, collecting the third-most targets on the team, while tight ends have accounted for nearly 25% of Russell Wilson's throws.

The former Buckeye has three games with at least 4 targets and is coming off a season-high in yards last week (43). With a trip to London to face the Oakland Raiders in store for this week, Vannett joins the streaming conversation, particularly for those in deep leagues.

The Raiders' pass defense ranks 29th in the league, according to our schedule adjusted metrics. They have been burned for the ninth-most yards per game (277.0) and the fourth- most yards per pass. Overall they have given up the third-most points per game (29.8), leading to the Seahawks having one of their highest implied point totals of the year (25.5).
