I was arguing w folks in the AB thread that I feel more comfortable w him over AB. He’s just one of those guys that because he only did it for one year- everybody is trying to pick apart his stats and yell regression. PFF graded him as the best TE in the league last year(yes ahead of Kelce who was #2) and every metric was record breaking territory for him, including YAC where he led the entire NFL including all WRs. Some people argue that he didn’t play enough w Jimmy G and Jimmy won’t throw to TEs as much. I don’t really buy it- he’s the most talented receiving weapon by far on the team and Jimmy G should be an upgrade at QB. Whenever a guy only has one season of success, there’s always going to be some questions- but to me he is very close to Kelce in value and I have no problem taking him after the elite WR tier and maybe Evans/Cook as well. Some of this should also depend on your league and strategy- meaning do you have guys later on you know you can pick to fill in your roster, and does your league value TEs highly- if so he’s well worth a pick because having an elite TE is a huge edge that MAYBE 5-6 teams tops will have while the others stream crap. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Kelce. Kittle. Ertz. Engram. Henry. Howard. Maybe Vance Mcdonald and Jack Doyle The only tight ends id want. But seems to be a deeper position this year then years past. I may be looking to flip my kittle. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

TE is never deep after the top 4-5ish theres a monsterous gap and even within the top 5 theres a chasm. Engram Henry and Howard will not sniff 80-90 catches this year while the top 3 each can surpass that IF things break their way.
