Opposing Defenses: 1st Easiest

Opposing Pass Defenses: 1st Easiest

As mentioned earlier for Bradford, the Vikings face the easiest schedule of opposing defenses this year, and that should benefit his pass catchers, too.

Last season, Kyle Rudolph was the TE3, leading all tight ends in targets (132) and red zone looks (24). The only tight ends to score more touchdowns than Rudolph last year were Cameron Brate and Hunter Henry, both of whom had eight scores to Rudolph's seven.

For the Vikings, Rudolph led the team in targets and touchdowns while finishing second to Stefon Diggs (84 to 83) in receptions.

With a favorable schedule, Rudolph should once again be in line to be a top tight end in fantasy.
