Tank Dell 2024 Fantasy Football Outlook: Returning From Injury, Still Has Plenty Of Upside As Houston's No. 3 Wideout
6 months agoHouston Texans wide receiver Tank Dell (leg) is the forgotten man in Houston's offense, with an early ADP of 51.98 behind Stefon Diggs and Nico Collins. RotoBaller currently has Dell ranked at WR31, nine spots behind Diggs and 15 spots behind Collins. However, Dell could be the best fantasy finisher among the three. Diggs will likely be the first read to start the season, but he will be on the wrong side of 30 this year, and we could see a regression in his game. Additionally, Dell proved in 2023 that he is at least, if not a slightly more talented player than Collins. Most importantly, C.J. Stroud loves to target Dell. If not for his missed time due to his concussion in Week 5 and his broken fibula in Week 13, Dell likely would have finished his rookie season with over 1,200 yards and 10 touchdowns. Even so, Dell finished the season with 709 yards and seven scores. Once Stroud got going in 2023, he was absolutely locked on to Dell. The 24-year-old is participating in OTAs after recovering from a gunshot wound to his leg as a victim of a mass shooting in Florida and the broken fibula he suffered in his rookie season. Collins, Diggs, and Dell all occupy different portions of the field. Each of them should be able to provide some level of fantasy value. It is hard to say which player will clearly emerge in fantasy, but Dell will cost substantially less than the other two, and given all the unknowns, he should be your target in the Houston wide receiving core.
