Delanie Walker, Dorial Green-Beckham's Post-Week 11 Fantasy Advice

Danny WebsterNov 19, 2015

The Tennessee Titans are still a work in progress. There's promise there.

Marcus Mariota played well, but the Titans came up short on Thursday night, losing 19-13 to the Jacksonville Jaguars at EverBank Field.   

The Titans are now 2-8, but surprisingly, they're not out of the AFC South picture. Fantasy options, however, are scarce. Other than Mariota, the options aren't there—except for one guy, whom we'll talk about right now.

Here's some post-fantasy advice for tight end Delanie Walker and rookie receiver Dorial Green-Beckham.

I continue to say it week in and week out. The value of the tight end this year in fantasy football is scarce. If you have a capable tight end who can be a worthy starting option each week, you've struck gold.

Delanie Walker is one of those tight ends who seems to find value when you least expect it. Walker has become Marcus Mariota's favorite target because 1) he's a veteran, and 2) he can catch. Walker had his first 100-plus-yard day of the season on Thursday.

He may not be at the level of a Rob Gronkowski, but Walker is still an option you should consider to start at tight end. Only one time this year has Walker not caught a pass. That was in Week 2 against the Cleveland Browns, and he didn't even play.

He's eighth among tight ends in ESPN's fantasy system, but the fact he's Tennessee's leading receiver is what constitutes that value. 

Continue to keep Walker in your lineups. There aren't many tight ends who have been this consistent this year.

Dorial Green-Beckham has talent that's going to make him a star for Mariota in the next couple of years.

Thursday was another example of why he's going to need that extra year or two before he can become a reliable weapon in the passing game.

DGB caught only three passes and was targeted six times. There were passes thrown behind him and a couple of them he dropped that he should've had.

There's no denying he has the frame to be a true No. 1 weapon for Mariota in the future. He's 6'5", 237 pounds, and can impose his will on any defensive back in the NFL. Normally, because he's so tall, he would be a good flex option in fantasy. But having two touchdowns on the year is not good. That's why Green-Beckham should not even be touched in fantasy going forward.

In a year or two from now, though, it'll be a different story.
