Fantasy Upside
Charles Clay was forced into the starter role last season after a season ending injury to free agent acquisition Dustin Keller. Before becoming a starter Clay only had 34 career receptions in his first two seasons with Miami. Then, the halfback turned tight end had a great season. Clay finished with a 69-759-6 stat line, and also added one rushing touchdown to his total.
Fantasy Downside
While Clay had a successful season, he wasn't exactly an elite option. He had nine games under 45 receiving yards in 2013.
Bottom Line
Clay should be viewed as a borderline TE1. After all he did finish in the top 10 amongst tight ends in targets (101), catches (69), yards (759) and touchdowns (6) last season. He's a viable TE option if you wait past the middle rounds on the position.
