Yahoo Sports fantasy analyst Dalton Del Don explains why the tight end could be a sneaky Week 1 pick for fantasy managers against the Detroit Lions.

Colby Parkinson is going undrafted in Yahoo Leagues and getting completely ignored everywhere.
So let's go deep here.
He's the new starting tight end for a Rams offense that led the NFL in yards per play when healthy last season, Tyler Higby put up nice fantasy numbers in this offense and he's likely out for the season.
Parkinson was never given a big role in Seattle's offense, but the former five star recruit is more than just a blocker and the Rams paid him.
The Lions allowed the seventh most fantasy points to tight ends last year.
And Sunday night's matchup has the highest total of the weekend tight end has become a total crap shoot after the top 12 this season.
So expect Parkinson to be added in many Fantasy Leagues after a nice performance in week one.
