5. Cole Kmet, Bears (ADP: 287th overall)
Kmet was the first tight end selected in this year’s draft after a rather successful three-year career at Notre Dame. In his junior season, his final as a Fighting Irish, the tight end finished with 43 receptions for 515 yards and six touchdowns.
The Chicago Bears took Kmet with the 43rd overall pick, adding him to a depth chart that was pretty full at the position but lacked high-quality talent. The rookie will battle it out with newly-acquired veteran Jimmy Graham for the starting job. Kmet’s skill-set is similar to Graham’s, so it should be an interesting battle.
With Kmet currently going as the 41st tight end in fantasy drafts, he has the potential to be the steal of this year’s fantasy season. Mitchell Trubisky, much like Allen in Buffalo, needs another weapon, especially in close. Kmet can provide just that.
