NE - TE Rob Gronkowski deadline looming

Source: NFL Network - Ian Rapoport

Former New England Patriots TE Rob Gronkowski has until Nov. 30 to inform the NFL if he plans to return this season.

[ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ]

Fantasy GMs and Patriots fans have their fingers crossed here. It seems like a long-shot as Gronkowski has now moved on to be a TV analyst. When he retired, Patriots owner Bob Kraft did tell him that he wanted Gronkowski back for the team's playoff run. Gronkowski seems very much retired, but a call from Tom Brady might change his mind. It probably won't happen, but a TE-desperate Fantasy GM can dream, right?

Hunt played 38 snaps in Week 10 and he got 11 touches (4 carries, 7 receptions) in his first game with the Browns. That's something we should see continue going forward. Hunt has plenty of flex appeal for Fantasy GMs with this role.

Atlanta Falcons TE Austin Hooper (knee) will have an MRI on his knee Monday, Nov. 11, and he's expected to miss time. The MRI will determine how much he'll miss.

[ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ [ FOOTBALLGUYS VIEW ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ] ]

Bad news for Fantasy GMs here. Hooper has scored more fantasy points at the tight end position this year than anybody else in the league. He's obviously a big part of what the Falcons do through the air. Luke Stocker is next in line behind Hooper, but he's mostly known as a blocker. In crazy deep dynasty formats, we're watching 2018 UDFA Jaeden Graham who might get an opportunity with Hooper down. Graham was a star at Yale, and he's certainly got more of a pass-catching/athletic profile than Stocker.

Atlanta Falcons RB Devonta Freeman (foot) will have an MRI Monday, Nov. 11, to determine the severity of his foot sprain.

All Fantasy GMs need to make Brian Hill a priority on the waiver wire this week. Hill is a good runner but he's also a reliable receiver out of the backfield. His all-purpose skill set means he doesn't need to come off the field that much if at all. Rookie Qadree Ollison is a big back who could get some playing time as well if Freeman has to miss time.

Fantasy GMs need to be dialed in here. Thomas is a huge target who could dominate in the red zone due to his size and strength combination.
