Past Fantasy Outlooks

The tight end position is a crap-shoot for the Bills right now, and they don't rely too heavily on the tight end in the passing game anyway. The competition is between Scott Chandler, Nelson, David Martin and Mike Caussin for roster spots and playing time. Nelson probably has the most fantasy value of that group, but we could also see a situation where Chandler wins the starting job, and Nelson is used as a second tight end and occasional wideout. That puts him deep on the radar, but we're also not expecting all that much from a guy who hasn't done anything in the league yet, coupled with an offense that typically features the TE last. UPDATE: Nelson was released in the September cutdown, and at best will hook on with another team as a depth tight end.
