Summary

Tight End Rank: #82All Players: #459

Spaeth had six receptions his second season with the Bears, giving him 13 in two seasons with the team. He has fewer than 10 receptions all but one of six seasons in the NFL. Spaeth is a top blocking tight end, which will continue to earn him some playing. He also is a good red-zone target because of his 6-7 frame but his chances in the passing game are few and far between. He is a blocker first and foremost.

FANTASY OUTLOOK

Spaeth has a little touchdown potential, but his work as a receiver will be very sporadic. He is a very risky draft choice because of his inconsistent targets.

Notes

Jun 17 11:08 am

Pittsburgh Steelers TE Matt Spaeth might start the regular season as a starter if TE Heath Miller (knee) is not ready. However, he is considered a strong blocking tight end, which would help trigger the running back. He understands he probably won't see the ball as much as Miller did even as a starter. 'I'm a role guy, and I know I've got a role, and I never worry about how many balls are being thrown to me,' Spaeth said.
