Scouting report

NO TE Coby Fleener - Week 12, 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 12 vs. Los Angeles
Coby Fleener caught three-of-five targets for 17 yards and a touchdown in the Saints' Week 11 loss to the Panthers. Fantasy owners that have been forced to ride or die with Fleener were rewarded with his third receiving touchdown of the season. That said, he committed yet another drop that was technically a fumble and was also flagged for a false start penalty. Ranked as our TE19 for Week 12, we recommend you stay away from Fleener, who has clearly dropped off the TE1 map. If you're desperate at tight end, Lance Kendricks, Dennis Pitta, Cameron Brate or Will Tye might be available in your leagues.

NO TE Coby Fleener Week 11, 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 11 at Carolina
Coby Fleener caught both of his targets for 26 yards in the Saints' Week 10 loss to the Broncos. He has just 11 catches over his past four games and has seen 14 targets over that span. Fleener has never caught on in this offense and remains an afterthought in a passing game that also includes Brandin Cooks, Willie Snead and excellent rookie Michael Thomas. Ranked as our TE24 for Week 11, avoid Fleener for the Saints' Thursday night matchup with the Panthers.

NO TE Coby Fleener Week 10, 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 10 vs. Denver
Coby Fleener caught three passes for 42 yards on six targets in the Saints’ Week 9 win over the 49ers. He has now failed to go over 50 yards receiving in his last three games and hasn’t scored a touchdown since finding paydirt against the Panthers in Week 6. With just two touchdowns on the year, Fleener continues to be a fantasy bust. Ranked as our TE20, avoid Fleener for Week 10 if you have the luxury. Dennis Pitta, C.J. Fiedorowicz, Kyle Rudolph, Zch Ertz, Lance Kendricks, Gary Barnidge, Austin Hooper, Cameron Brate and Martellus Bennett are all possible waiver wire additions if you’re looking for a tight end.

NO TE Coby Fleener - Week 9, 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 9 at San Francisco
Coby Fleener caught all four of his targets for a pedestrian 36 yards in the Saints' Week 8 win over the Seahawks. He played just 34 percent of the Saints' offensive snaps while Josh Hill played on 61-of-76 snaps and continues to see his workload increase. Fleener ranks as our TE15 for Week 9 despite a good matchup against the 49ers. If you have other options, avoid Fleener until his snaps increase.

NO TE Coby Fleener - Week 8, 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 8 vs. Seattle
Coby Fleener caught both of his targets for 44 yards in the Saints Week 7 loss to the Chiefs. He wound up with a 30-yard gain in the second quarter, but was held off the stat sheet in the second half. The performance was disappointing for fantasy owners that watched as Fleener caught six passes for 74 yards and a touchdown in Week 6 against the Panthers. Owners should also be used to disappointment with Fleener at this juncture.

On Sunday the Saints will host the Seahawks, who own fantasy's No. 19 defense versus tight ends. Fleener ranks as our TE12 for Week 8, making him a low-end TE1 for Sunday. Start him at your own risk.

NO TE Coby Fleener - Week 7, 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 at Kansas City Chiefs
Coby Fleener caught 6-of-7 targets for 74 yards and one touchdown in the Saints Week 6 win over the Panthers. His touchdown was unorthodox, as he actually rushed for a score with New Orleans facing a 4th-and-1 from the goal-line. Perhaps the reports over the bye week that Fleener was feeling more comfortable in Sean Payton's offense were accurate, although he's burned fantasy owners before.

Ranked as our TE13 for Week 7, view Fleener as a low-end TE1 in deeper formats when the Saints take on the Chiefs. Kansas City ranks as fantasy's No. 10 defense against tight ends this season.

NO TE Coby Fleener - Week 6, 2016 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 vs. Carolina
Coby Fleener had another disappointing fantasy day in Week 4, catching three-of-five targets for just 19 yards in the Saints win over the Chargers. Fleener had seemingly broken out with a 109-yard, one-touchdown performance against the Falcons the week prior, but he took a step backwards versus the Chargers. Saints tight end coach Dan Campbell did say that Fleener was “coming along” in the offense, but it remains to be seen if he’ll emerge as a viable fantasy starter moving forward.

Ranked as our TE11 for Week 6, view Fleener as a low-end TE against the Panthers. The good news is that Carolina ranks as fantasy’s No. 26 defense versus tight ends so if he were to have another big game, one would think this would be a matchup he could exploit.
