The best week of the year is here, a period when we take a moment to say thanks and show gratitude to those we appreciate. In the spirit of the holiday, we polled our staff for the players who make them thankful.
Question Of The Week
Who are you thankful for in Dynasty?
Trey McBride, Arizona
Spala: I am thankful for McBride. He currently ranks first among tight ends in routes, receptions, targets, receiving yards, and receiving expected points added. He has 13 consecutive games with at least five receptions. I am thankful to have a tight end for whom I do not have to worry about a weekly start-and-sit decision.
Blaylock: I share Corey's gratitude for Trey McBride, who has been my superstar this year and has single-handedly swung numerous matchups in my favor. What's Thanksgiving without sharing? A Thursday. So, thank you, Corey, for sharing McBride. He's been either the fantasy TE1 or TE2 in PPR scoring for five straight games leading into this week's game against Tampa Bay, and he's posted TE6 or better numbers in all but three games this season. Not only has McBride scored more than 60 PPR points more than Brock Bowers, the next-highest scoring tight end, over that span, but also all but four wide receivers, according to Stathead. That cornucopia of points is absolutely something to be thankful for.
Jahmyr Gibbs, Detroit
Brown: I am thankful for Gibbs. Ever since he came out of college, he has been my guy. I was one of the few members of the Gibbs RB1 crowd. Since he's been a Lion, everything has been amazing. He is on many of my fantasy rosters, and he just dropped me the first 50-burger of the season, winning me a handful of leagues. Thank you, Gibbs.
Wan'Dale Robinson, NY Giants
