Dynasty Tight End Analysis for Fantasy Football

Trey McBride, Arizona Cardinals

It's Brock Bowers and Trey McBride, and then everybody else right now.

The 2022 second-round pick broke out at the tail end of his second season, following an injury to starter Zach Ertz. He rode that momentum into his third year, finishing as the TE2 in total points (trailing Bowers) and points per game (George Kittle).

There's still plenty of room for No. 85 to grow. 111 receptions and 1,146 yards will be difficult to top, but even a decrease of 10 catches and 100 yards would put him among the elite. The missing ingredient can be found in the end zone.

McBride didn't score a receiving touchdown until Week 17, when he decided to put a mini-streak together, finding paydirt again in the (meaningless for fantasy) Week 18. Toss in the random rushing touchdown in Week 9 (his only carry of the season) and McBride's total hit three. 24 tight ends caught more touchdowns than McBride, including fantasy football *ahem* superstars AJ Barner, Nick Vannett, Josh Oliver, and Nate Adkins.

What frustrated fantasy managers even more was that McBride's target share increased in the red zone, and he finished second among tight ends in red zone targets (21). The connection between him and Kyler Murray clicked between the 20s. When the field shrank, McBride's catch rate dropped from over 75 to 52 percent.

It's becoming somewhat of a concerning trend, as McBride has six receiving touchdowns in three years. It's not panic time yet; he's only been a starter for a season and a half. But something worth monitoring.

The popular consensus is that he'll enjoy positive touchdown regression in 2025, and if he does, overtaking Bowers atop the dynasty wish list isn't out of the question. Regardless of what happens in the red zone, managers can trust that McBride is Murray's preferred target in the desert.

Tyler Warren, Indianapolis Colts

First came LaPorta, then came Bowers.

Fantasy football players are witnessing the unlikeliest of trends: Two rookies have topped the tight end scoring list in consecutive seasons. Can Tyler Warren be the one to make it three in a row?

The rookie is the latest in a lengthy list of Penn State tight ends to make the NFL. Unlike Mike Gesicki, Pat Freiermuth, Brenton Strange, and Theo Johnson, Warren was a first-round draft pick after displaying talents that exceeded the receiving game.

Yes, Warren led the Nittany Lions in receptions (104), receiving yards (1,233), and receiving touchdowns (8). But he also rushed the football 26 times for 218 yards and four scores and threw another touchdown for good measure. He is truly a jack-of-all-trades weapon.

His upside was too juicy for Indianapolis to pass up with the 14th pick in the NFL Draft. He joins a roster filled with receiving talent (Michael Pittman Jr., Josh Downs, and Adonai Mitchell), but nobody who has truly stepped into an alpha role.

How will head coach Shane Steichen deploy his rookie? He's been an offensive coordinator or head coach since the 2020 season. Dallas Goedert enjoyed his two best yardage seasons with Steichen calling plays in Philadelphia. Hunter Henry caught 60 passes in his final Los Angeles season with Steichen serving as the offensive coordinator. Goedert and Henry are both nice players, but did not have Warren's pedigree upon entering the league.

The biggest knock on Warren's redraft potential could be his biggest boon for his career-long trajectory. The Indianapolis quarterback room is well-documented: Anthony Richardson can't pass the football. He has 11 touchdowns through the air and 13 interceptions in 15 career games. The former first-round pick completed fewer than 50 percent of his pass attempts and temporarily lost his job to 39-year-old Joe Flacco in 2024.

Fantasy managers of Pittman and Downs were actively rooting for Flacco to start. Downs averaged 15.4 PPR points per game in seven games without Richardson, compared to 10.7 with him.

The same crowd is hoping Daniel Jones wins the starting job in Indianapolis. Mediocre numbers (64% completion rate and 208 yards per game) led to the New York Giants moving on from their former first-round pick, and he's still the guy we want to see under center.

Whether it's Richardson or Jones, Warren won't have an upper-half starting quarterback throughout his rookie season. That's why he's outside of the top 12 in redraft rankings.

However, if he becomes the Colts' top target, despite a low pass rate and inaccuracies, then his long-term stock will rise.

Evan Engram, Denver Broncos

Injuries sidetracked Evan Engram in 2024 as he dealt with both shoulder and hamstring concerns. It could be hard to recall how good the 30-year-old looked recently, given his injury status last season.

Engram caught 114 passes for 963 yards in 2023, which is elite usage for a tight end. Can he bring that kind of production with him to Denver, where he signed a two-year, $23 million deal? There's a strong shot he can thrive under Sean Payton.

Payton is a head coach who has been searching for his "joker." You know, that hybrid weapon that can do it all. Catch passes, block, and run routes smoothly; basically, he wanted his Jimmy Graham-type guy in Denver. Now, he thinks he has him in Engram.

Courtland Sutton, the team's WR1, draws top coverage. The rest of the receivers haven't proven themselves yet, so the team needed someone to fill that void. Engram could easily end the season second in targets behind Sutton.

Quarterback Bo Nix had a nice rookie season, tossing 29 TDs while running it in for four more. Engram is in the perfect situation to contribute right away, adding another red zone presence for Nix to target.

Engram's giant frame and after-the-catch talent make him a headache for defenders. He's the ideal target for those TE-needy dynasty contenders who are just one piece away.

Managers could be low on the Ole Miss alum due to his age and injury history. You should take advantage of those who don't think the veteran has anything left in his tank. He might not hit that 2023 status, but if he gives you just 75 percent of that, you're golden (especially in PPR leagues).
