Trey McBride an Elite Fantasy TE Any Way You Slice it
Arizona Cardinals tight end Trey McBride was by far and away the top fantasy TE in 2025 in his fourth year in the NFL, and he was also a Pro Bowler for the second straight season. The 26-year-old finished with career highs across the board in catches (126), receiving yards (1,239), touchdowns (11), and targets (169) in 17 starts. The former second-rounder in 2022 out of Colorado State surprisingly became even more productive after quarterback Kyler Murray's foot injury opened the door for veteran Jacoby Brissett to start from Week 6 on. Ten of his 11 TDs on the year came with Brissett throwing him the ball, and he led all TEs with 33 red-zone targets. The good news for McBride's fantasy value in redraft and dynasty leagues going into the 2026 season is that Brissett will enter the year as Arizona's starter again. The one potential concern is the team's new offense under head coach Mike LaFleur, which should be much more balanced than last year's pass-happy attack. But even with an expected volume hit, McBride is an elite player at his position, and RotoBaller has him ranked as the TE2 in dynasty settings, behind only the Raiders' Brock Bowers.
