Austin Seferian-Jenkins, TE, New York Jets

Yahoo! Ownership: 5%

Austin Seferian-Jenkins has always possessed the talent to succeed in the NFL. He was an early second-round pick coming out of Washington in 2014, but injuries and off-field issues have gotten in the way. Now clean and sober, the 24-year-old is in line to see his real world and fantasy stock rise.

The tight end returned from a two-game suspension in Week 3 and immediately paid dividends with 6 targets against the Miami Dolphins, tying him with Robby Anderson for the New York Jets' lead. He finished with 5 catches for 31 yards. Jenkins will look to build on his performance with the Jacksonville Jaguars coming to town in Week 4.

Jacksonville has allowed only 124.3 passing yards per game this season, tops in the NFL, but tight ends have managed to thrive against the Jags, averaging 11.7 fantasy points per game, the 3rd-most in the league. In the last two weeks, they have allowed 11 catches, 117 yards, and 2 touchdowns to Tennessee Titans and Baltimore Ravens' tight ends, which bodes well for ASJ.
