He is getting open and getting plenty of targets. That likely won't change as long as McCown is playing Qb
Same question for dynasty. The earlier comment about how he looked in Carolina is intriguing - is this just a delayed breakout that should have happened a couple of year ago? Is he real that contenders should be holding on to, or paying for? Should bad teams be flipping him for draft picks?What kind of trade value does this guy have in redraft? Have him & Eifert. Lot of teams super thin at TE in my league
I feel like redraft he should have higher value. That or a deep roster dyno will have higher value. But someone earlier in the thread said that he came into the league as a pass catcher. Maybe those skills took a backseat due to system in his earlier career, but whatever the case it looks like he has reemerged as a receiver.Same question for dynasty.

Yeah, but PPG is what's important. It's not like Gates owners were taking 0's the first four weeks.Top 5 is a safer call. He has a 4 game lead on Gates, so I don't think Gates makes the top 5.
Gronk
Eifert
Barnidge
Olsen
Bennett
Kielce out vs Eifert or Bennett?Top 5 is a safer call. He has a 4 game lead on Gates, so I don't think Gates makes the top 5.
Gronk
Eifert
Barnidge
Olsen

Another 100 yard game. Guy has been incredible the past 5 weeks.TD in 4 straight (2 100 yd games).
Ride him til the wheels fall off.
wow, reality just set in for me.... if that little midget is going to make one read then run around like an idiot, the barnidge run of excellent fantasy games is over....! josh mccown cant come back soon enoughAnother 100 yard game. Guy has been incredible the past 5 weeks.TD in 4 straight (2 100 yd games).

Let's hope McCown shoulder injury isn't severe
One of the craziest FF runs I have ever witnessed, and hardly anyone is talking about it!?
With Manziel in he is worthlessNot a single post from the previous Sunday 10/18 thru yesterday before my post. It does show you the lack of trade value the guy has too... (just from the lack of discussion)One of the craziest FF runs I have ever witnessed, and hardly anyone is talking about it!?
The guy is the #5 overall (and #3 RB/WR/TE) in scoring since Week 3 in PPR formats. It's been great that he's finished Top 5 TE or higher every week since Week 3. Wheels may fall off soon (if McCown is out) but it's been as unexpected of production -- from a mid-late career guy that had done next to nothing previously -- as I can remember in quite some time.
that's probably true. But for his price, I'd take the chance that Johnny at least learned to throw to the one guy who has a chance to catch his ducks.With Manziel in he is worthlessNot a single post from the previous Sunday 10/18 thru yesterday before my post.

...Tight end Gary Barnidge had a tooth knocked out in the first half and got stitches in his lip at halftime. He played the second half.
“He should be fine,” Pettine said.
Barnidge continued his career year with another big day, six catches for 101 yards. He joined Ozzie Newsome (three, 1982), Kellen Winslow Jr. (three, 2007) and Milt Morin (four, 1968) as the only Browns tight ends with three 100-yard games in a season.
The highlight was a 28-yarder down the seam in which he tipped the high pass to himself.
you're literally talking about 3 plays. Which is fine, they happened. But so did his 56% completion rate.Didnt have an issue dropping dimes to benjaminthat's probably true.

5 weeks in a row... at this point you have to accept he is an upper tier te1 this season until the production falls off for consecutive weeks... or until mccown isnt the starter and barnidge's trade value crashes hardIs his production sustainable? Is he a sell high?
But you did not address the question. Is this sustainable? We see that he is a Tier 1 TE but can he remain there? And if his value crashes as you say, then you won't be able to sell him at all. So... Should you sell now?5 weeks in a row... at this point you have to accept he is an upper tier te1 this season until the production falls off for consecutive weeks... or until mccown isnt the starter and barnidge's trade value crashes hardIs his production sustainable?

he's TE 2 or 3 in most formats... more than likely you won't get anything near that value in a trade... so why not just enjoy the ride while it lasts? It would seem as long as McCown is qb he is going to get targetsBut you did not address the question. Is this sustainable? We see that he is a Tier 1 TE but can he remain there?

Got there@SultanofStat: This Gary Barnidge streak is nuts. Needs 4 FPTS to tie Tony Gonzalez & Rob Gronkowski for longest streak of 10+ FPTS G this century (6).
Agreed. He's top 2-3 TE in targets and receptions. His TD numbers help bump his FPTS totals - but he is seeing good volume. I think a top 5 finish is definitely possible.he's TE 2 or 3 in most formats... more than likely you won't get anything near that value in a trade... so why not just enjoy the ride while it lasts?

I usually like trading name value away when this situation arises, but I'm not parting with Gronk. I'll just keep rolling Barnidge out as a flex.Agreed. He's top 2-3 TE in targets and receptions.

As mentioned, you're never going to get the trade value as he's not a big name or playing for a big name team or QB, so just ride him and take the points.
If you have him as your "backup", you can probably actually get better trade value for the sexier name he is replacing in your lineup -
