Just like that and we are already in NFL Week 16 and the holiday season and a new year is approaching. I do want to say this year has been rough on all of us. With covid and the world flipped upside down I really appreciate each and everyone of you in our community. Trust me when I tell you that we are not some big corporate company sitting on millions of dollars preying and taking advantage of anyone. When I started Win Daily 3 years ago I wanted to give back to the community that I was passionate about. I love to build companies and brands so I thought to myself why not build a brand from what I love to do. After 3 years of building we have a team from all over the world working together to help others when most of us never met in person. We try our best to come together to help each other and we are all doing it because we care about people and we love sports. Besides some big tournament wins we all still have our day jobs and we put in all of our free time into helping the community by writing articles, building models and tools, and talking in the expert chat. I hope everyone sees the effort we all put in and I consider you all my friends. Without a doubt over the past 3 years I cut out a lot of friends in my real life to chat and work with my friends in fantasy. So when I think about the community we all built I don’t only count the wins or losses on a particular slate I count all the good friends and conversations I have because of fantasy. For whoever read my long message I hope you have a happy holiday and fresh and safe start to the new year! And whenever this pandemic truly ends I hope we can finally have our Win Daily meet up in Vegas sometime in 2022

Let’s take a look at our NFL Week 16 DFS Tight Ends!
ROB GRONKOWSKI, TB $6,200 DRAFTKINGS, $6,700 FANDUEL
The Buccaneers are at a all time low for their season. Not only did they get shutout but they also loss Fournette, Godwin, and Evans in the process. So it now becomes the Gronk and Brown show in Week 16. Every lineup I make will have 2 out of the 3, between the mentioned above and Ronald Jones. Listen you can easily make a case for Johnson or Miller but with so much value around this week I will be anchoring every lineup I make with at least 1 Buccaneer but in most cases 2. The price never got adjusted and I just don’t see a reason to fade the Bucs. Gronk has been averaging 9 targets with weapons around him the past couple weeks and now will be basically alone alongside Brown. I will be honest the matchup is not great, but the target share, red zone upside, and price makes Gronk a near lock on Sunday on both sites.
MARK ANDREWS, BAL $6,400 DRAFTKINGS, $8,000 FANDUEL

DALLAS GOEDDERT, ARI $5,100 DRAFTKINGS $5,900 FANDUEL
I love to lock in tight ends who are truly the 1st option in the receiving game of their respective offense. Goedert should be a nice pivot off the possible chalk mentioned above. If he can continue the trend of 100 yards receiving for a 3rd straight week the leverage you gain and the slight discount can bring rewards to your lineup. The matchup is good versus the Giants who rank 19th against tight ends and with Jalen stepping up in the passing game the stack could pay dividends. The only Jalen stacks I am willing to trot out there are with Goeddert. The Eagles are projected to score 25+ in this game and we can only hope one of the touchdowns will come through the air and land in Goeddert’s hands.
PAT FREIERMUTH, PIT $4,300 DRAFTKINGS, $5,100 FANDUEL
The hype was high on Pat but after recent down games the ownership has dwindled down to nothing. We do need him to clear concussion protocol so as long as he does so I like the price in a up paced matchup versus the Chiefs. Pitt is The hype was high on Pat but after recent down games the ownership has dwindled down to nothing. We do need him to clear concussion protocol so as long as he does so I like the price in an up paced matchup versus the Chiefs. Pitt is fighting to stay in the playoff hunt and they will have to throw the ball a ton to defeat the Chiefs rather or not if they are at full strength. If you combine the 6 touchdowns Pat has scored in the last 7 games with a lot of garbage time and an aerial attack from the Pittsburgh offense Freiermuth should crush value in a very low owned spot. With the way roster construction is shaping up most people will choose value running backs and some value wide receivers which will force their hand to pay up at tight end. Thus leaving Pat in a nice low owned spot to be a different maker in your lineups on Sunday. Pat has been ruled out. I honestly want to lock in with Gronk and Andrews but if you need another guy for your multi entry maybe look to Hunter Henry or Cole Kmet.
KYLE PITTS, ATL $5,800 DRAFTKINGS $5,900 FANDUEL
Will I be loading up on Pitts? the answer is no. But in tournaments I am not going to go all in on 1-2 tight ends. So to Will I be loading up on Pitts? The answer is no. But in tournaments I am not going to go all in on 1-2 tight ends. So to extend the player pool we need to fight guys who have upside at low ownerships. The price on Pitts has finally come down to the point where I will be taking some shots in a matchup which should have the Falcons scoring some points. The targets have always been there for Pitts and that is not going to change in Week 16. Pitts and the Falcons in general are just not scoring enough points. Pitts only has one touchdown on the year and let’s hope he catches his second on Sunday. As we saw the last couple of weeks, the floor is there with Pitts. All we need is the upside 100 yard 1 touchdown game to come for him to pay off.
