Geoff Swaim, TE, Dallas Cowboys

Yahoo! Ownership: 6%

The Dallas Cowboys have been desperate to find receiving weapons this year. While no one wideout has gained any traction, tight end Geoff Swaim has stepped up the last two weeks. Against Seattle and Detroit the last two weeks, Swaim has racked up 12 targets, tied with Ezekiel Elliott for the team-lead. He has 8 catches, 86 yards, and 1 touchdown over that span. In the Lone Star State Showdown this Sunday night versus the Houston Texans, Swaim is in line for another solid week of production.

The Cowboys are 3.5-point underdogs, meaning Dak Prescott may be forced to pass more often than usual. With the Texans weakness, against tight ends -- eighth-most fantasy points allowed to the position -- Swaim should thrive. Only the San Francisco 49ers have allowed more touchdowns to tight ends than Houston.
