This one is more of a target for deeper leagues, as most standard-sized leagues will have better tight end options available on the waiver wire, but Josh Hill finds himself in a very intriguing situation in Week 13.

Per Nathan Jahnke, Hill led Saints tight ends in both snaps (57) and routes run (21) in Week 12. This marks the fourth time in the last five weeks that Hill has played more snaps than Coby Fleener, while Hill continues to build on his season-lead in snaps. He hasn't turned these snaps into much volume on the year but did see a season-high 6 targets on Sunday, catching all 6 for 74 yards.

Week 13 puts him in an ideal spot to begin to convert his workload into fantasy scoring, as the Saints will be up against a Lions team that is on pace for its second-straight season allowing top-five fantasy production to opposing tight ends. They have allowed at least 12 PPR points to eight different tight ends this season, and with his big snap and route numbers, Hill has a good shot at becoming number nine.
