Owen Daniels, TE, Baltimore Ravens

Fantasy football is all about volume, and Owen Daniels ($3,800) saw plenty of it last week with nine targets. He converted that into four catches for 62 yards and a touchdown. While Daniels has been pretty inconsistent, his uptick in targets last week is an encouraging sign.

I also like Daniels this week because of the potential contrarian matchup -- Houston gives up the fifth fewest amount of fantasy points to tight ends, which could shy many away from playing him. While the Texans have a punishing defensive front, I'd expect quarterback Joe Flacco to get the ball out early. Also, Baltimore hasn't gotten great production from their wide receivers as of late. Not to mention, Daniels presents the Ravens' best threat in the red zone, which is another solid reason to roll him out as a tournament play. He's posted five double digit fantasy performances over the course of this season, which means that the potential is there.
