Fantasy Football: One Breakout Candidate From Every NFL Team

Eric Ebron, TE, Detroit Lions

Eric Ebron was the TE14 last season in PPR leagues, and he did it despite scoring just one touchdown. That's pretty insane.

The departure of Anquan Boldin should help Ebron avoid that same fate in 2017. Boldin accounted for 26.19% of the Detroit Lions' red zone targets last season, and while Ebron won't assume all of those vacated looks, he should be in line for a few more all-important red zone targets.

Ebron only has 22 red zone targets in his entire career, which is a huge eyesore on his résumé, but he was a big part of the team's overall attack last year, garnering a 17.28% market share through the air in his 13 games played.

Detroit added two tight ends this offseason, signing Darren Fells in free agency and drafting Michael Roberts in the fourth round. While that may seem like a bad thing, it may be the exact opposite, as those two could take on blocking duties, allowing Ebron to do what he does best (and what scores fantasy points).

Ebron is still a young fella, going into his age-24 season, and he's a prime breakout candidate at the tight end position.
