TE HOG RATE
aka "Targets per snap," this number measures how often a player was targeted when they were actually on the fields. It is an excellent way to measure how much a certain player was used in their offense.
Let& #39;s dive into the TE position

Some obvious names top this list: Kelce, Kittle, Ertz, Andrews, Engram.
But I bet you weren& #39;t expecting names like Ebron and Brate in the top 12.
I find it rather poetic that in the midst of the Higbee vs Everett twitter battle, they are tied in targets per snap.

This list is cut in half at the median of a 16% target share. The ones under that threshold are:
Ebron (15.5%)
Brate (10.8%)
Higbee (15.9%)
Everett (13.7%)
Cook (13.5%)
Gesicki (15.3%)

Eric Ebron TE27, #2 Hog
52/31/375/3
Ebron left early with an ankle injury + battled for snaps/targets with J Doyle.
Now in PIT with a wide-open TE room (sorry Vance) and a TE-loving Ben Roethlisberger under center, Ebron could be a high ceiling TE2 in 2020.

Cameron Brate TE24, #8 Hog
56/36/311/4
Jameis& #39;s favorite TE only had 1 game of real significance: wk 11 (14/10/73/0). Without that week, Brate only saw 42 tgts and 26 rec.
Now battling with OJH for a spot behind Gronk, Brate won& #39;t even be a streamable option in 2020.

Tyler Higbee TE8, T #9 Hog
89/69/734/3
We all know the Higbee story: unrosterable until wk 13 when Everett went down and he began to score 20+ FP each week.
Before wk13: pace of 53/42/339/1 (10gm sample)
Not touching Higbee at current ADP of 7.09 TE8

Gerald Everett TE26, T #9 Hog
60/37/408/2
Before leaving to injury, Everett was a boom/bust TE streamer.
On pace for 95/59/653/3.
Current ADP of TE28 is worth the potential upside.

Jared Cook TE7, #11 Hog
65/43/705/9
Lived and died on TDs.
11 Endzone targets (2nd only to M Andrews).
I usually try to avoid TD-dependant options (a la Ebron 2018 vs Ebron 2019).
Emmanuel Sanders + 3rd rd rookie Trautman = out on Cook being a TE1 in 2020.

Mike Gesicki TE12, #12 Hog
89/51/570/5
10 EZ targets (3rd behind Cook + Andrews) but only 5 TDs therefore numbers aren& #39;t inflated by TDs, though the TDs could potentially increase.
"Big Slot" role + Albert Wilson opt-out + going into 3rd "breakout" year = BUYhttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤑" title="Gesicht mit Geld-Mund" aria-label="Emoji: Gesicht mit Geld-Mund">

Kyle Rudolph (6.6)
