CHI TE Martellus Bennett - Week 12, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Martellus Bennett - Week 12 vs. Tampa Bay

Last week Brandon Marshall and Alshon Jeffery saw 27 of Jay Cutler’s 43 pass attempts. Martellus Bennett saw just four. He hauled all four of his targets in, but finished with just 29 yards. Bennett has proven to be a threat in the past, but he’s also been somewhat unreliable. He has three games below 40 yards and he’s caught just one touchdown in his last seven games.

But Bennett’s down games are better than most tight ends’ good games this season. And his upside makes it difficult to bench him. He should be viewed as a TE1 in a decent matchup against Tampa Bay.

CHI TE Martellus Bennett - Week 11, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Martellus Bennett - Week 11 vs. Minnesota Vikings

Martellus Bennett had a letdown game last week against Green Bay. He finished with two receptions for 45 yards on six targets. Bennett's success in games comes and goes. He can be a strong TE1 option one week and then a complete bust the next.

Even though he's been up and down, Bennett is still one of the top tight end options in fantasy this season. He should be viewed as a TE1, even in a tough matchup against Minnesota.

CHI TE Martellus Bennett - Week 10, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Martellus Bennett - Week 10 vs. Green Bay

Martellus Bennett led the team in receiving yards (95) when the Bears last played in Week 8 against New England. He caught a touchdown in the game, bringing his season total to five.

He's been one of the best options at tight end this season and is a fixture in the Bears' offense. He's continuing to put up good numbers even with Brandon Marshall, Alshon Jeffery and Matt Forte on the team.

This week he faces the Packers for the second time this year. Bennett set season highs in receptions (9) and yards (134) the last time he played Green Bay. He should be viewed as a strong TE1 option.

CHI TE Martellus Bennett - Week 8, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Martellus Bennett - Week 8 vs. New England

Martellus Bennett played on 94 percent of the team's offensive snaps last week against Miami despite an apparent hamstring injury. The injury forced him to miss Wednesday's practice and he was a limited participant on Thursday. It sounds like the missed practice was more of a precautionary measure.

In terms of production, Bennett played pretty well last week all things considered. The Bears struggled on offense, but the tight end was able to put up 5 receptions for 58 yards (second best on the team).

He gets a favorable matchup this week against New England. Considering the shallow tight end pool, Bennett should be viewed as a TE1 option.

CHI TE Martellus Bennett - Week 7, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Martellus Bennett - Week 7 vs. Miami

Martellus Bennett's hot season has cooled off a bit over the last two games. He did well in Week 6 (4-52) considering Brandon Marshall and Alshon Jeffery both went over 100 receiving yards.

Bennett's usage could be going down as Marshall and Jeffery continue to get healthier. He'll still be a good option moving forward, but maybe not as great as he was before. He should still be used as a TE1 this week against Miami.

CHI TE Martellus Bennett - Week 6, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Martellus Bennett - Week 6 vs. Atlanta

Martellus Bennett's great season didn't continue last week. Through the first four games he was a force to be reckoned with, but against Carolina he caught just three passes for 17 yards.

For now we'll just view the game as an anomaly. Bennett is still second in the team in receptions, receiving yards and touchdowns. He also is tied with Matt Forte for the most targets on the team.

This week he'll go up against the Falcons who have been the toughest on TEs. They haven't allowed a touchdown to the position all season and aren't allowing many yards, either. Still, Bennett is a focus of the Bears' potent passing attack and should be used as a TE1.

CHI TE Martellus Bennett - Week 5, 2014 Fantasy Football Outlook

Martellus Bennett - Week 5 vs. Carolina

Martellus Bennett is having a phenomenal 2014 season. He's currently the highest scoring tight end in fantasy and he's coming off a huge 9-134 performance. He leads the Bears in targets (37), receptions (29) and yards (295).

He draws a difficult matchup against the Panthers this week. Carolina hasn't allowed a touchdown to a tight end all season and has held TEs to four receptions in each of the last three games.

Owners should look past the difficult matchup, though. Bennett is clearly a focal point of this offense and should be used as a TE1.
