Charles Clay (TE, BUF) - 2015 Fantasy Football Sleeper

BALLER MOVE: Target as a low-end TE2.

CURRENT ADP: 176 STD, 205 PPR

ANALYSIS: Rex Ryan, the head coach for the Buffalo Bills, has already made a name for himself in the league as a coach that likes to run the ball. With the likes of Lesean McCoy, Fred Jackson, Anthony Dixon and Bryce Brown, the Bills will be running a lot. But, with quarterbacks like Matt Cassell, Tyrod Taylor and E.J. Manuel, the team is going to need a reliable short option to throw to.

Enter Charles Clay.

With any one of these quarterbacks, the team may have to rely on the middle of the field more often. This is the area of the field where Clay made a name for himself as a member of the Miami Dolphins and this is an area where he should be most effective as a member of the Buffalo Bills.

Two years ago, after a position change to tight end, Clay finished with the seventh-most points for a tight end, ahead of big names like Greg Olsen, Antonio Gates and Martellus Bennett. He finished that season with 69 receptions for 759 yards and six TDs. He even added a rushing TD.

This year, Clay joins a team where Fred Jackson led the team with 66 receptions and Watkins led the team with 982 receiving yards and six TDs. This is not to say that Clay will lead the team in each of these categories, but it would be fair to expect him to be second on the team in each of them. Watkins, the former fourth-overall pick, should eat up a lot of target and big plays on the outside, while Clay will do his work in the middle of the field, something the team has lacked the past few seasons. Expect him to reach low-TE1, high-TE2 numbers, probably around 60 catches for 700 yards and five TDs.
