Dynasty Fantasy Football TE Trade Target

Ben Sinnott, Washington Commanders

TE Zach Ertz is 34 years old and will turn 35 in November. It's fine to take a shot on Sinnott in the hopes that he develops into something useful down the road, given how cheap he is. Tight ends take a while to develop in the NFL, and sometimes they become good fantasy players after one or two years of experience.

His rookie season stats are pretty much nonexistent, and it was apparently the result of both tight ends John Bates and Ertz being better role players than he was. But as the linked article states, it's not uncommon to see rookie TEs do very little, then develop and carve out nice roles.

In TEP leagues, it might be worth making a move for him and acquiring him for very cheap from a disillusioned manager who bought into the hype and propaganda surrounding him before the season.

Dynasty Fantasy Football TE Sell Candidates

Dalton Kincaid, Buffalo Bills

The best time to sell Kincaid was after 2023, but the fact that he has Josh Allen as his quarterback and that he had a few games with good target numbers convinced many fantasy managers that he could indeed still be better than Detroit Lions tight end Sam LaPorta since he was chosen higher in the 2023 NFL Draft.

That turned out to be completely untrue. Even on a team that lacked a true WR1, Kincaid was a non-factor because he just isn't a very good tight end. He was the 12th-most-targeted tight end (on a per-game basis) in 2024, yet he averaged just 7.8 PPR points per game, 20th best among TEs.

He was supposed to develop nicely and break out in Year 2. Instead, in many ways, he looked like the same player, yet in others, he looked even worse. He was a bust of an NFL Draft pick and a horrible player to choose with a somewhat early pick in fantasy football drafts.

Yet, he's ranked in the top 10 of dynasty/keeper league tight-end rankings. The Bills had to bring in WR Amari Cooper because their pass-catching room was seriously lacking in talent, and that was after they drafted wideout Keon Coleman, though he did miss some time due to injury.

Buffalo has Cooper, Coleman, WR Khalil Shakir, and running back James Cook, all of whom are easily better players for Allen to target than Kincaid. It's unlikely that will change -- in fact, Coleman showed flashes before his wrist injury and should develop further, leaving Kincaid further behind.

And now, his drops have become a hideous problem that could seriously vex him moving forward. And he'll be a curse to have on your dynasty fantasy football rosters. He's like Kyle Pitts 2.0 but less talented (initially), and the fact that the Bills made a bad mistake drafting him shouldn't convince you to hang onto him any longer. Ship him off.

Jake Ferguson, Dallas Cowboys

Ferguson was a very popular late-round tight end in fantasy drafts last year. With the Dallas Cowboys lacking a clear WR2 behind CeeDee Lamb, it looked like Ferguson was a lock for a high target role.

However, things didn’t materialize as such. Ferguson only caught 59 receptions for 494 receiving yards on 86 targets across 14 games. He only managed a feeble 8.37 yards per reception and failed to score a touchdown. Gamers who waited to select Ferguson were let down in a big way.

Part of Ferguson’s struggles can be explained by starting quarterback Dak Prescott missing nine games with a torn hamstring. Cooper Rush took over as the starter, and while he filled in nicely, he is not the same caliber of player that Prescott is. Playing with a backup quarterback (and Trey Lance for one start) certainly hurt Ferguson’s production.

Ferguson also suffered an MCL sprain in Week 1. He would only miss one game with the injury, but perhaps he rushed his return to the field. This could explain why Ferguson only averaged the aforementioned 8.37 yards per reception.

Be that as it may, Dallas recently acquired receiver George Pickens in a trade with the Pittsburgh Steelers. Pickens is a talented player who struggled to reach his ceiling in Pittsburgh for various reasons. He immediately slides in as the Cowboys' WR2 and second-best pass-catcher behind Lamb.

Pickens' presence hurts Ferguson’s ceiling. It’s unlikely we ever see him emerge as a high-volume fantasy tight end, and we may have already seen Ferguson’s ceiling.

Whether Pickens reaches new heights in Dallas is up for debate. The one thing that isn’t debatable is that Pickens is an issue for Ferguson. He could be a nice bounce-back candidate, but gamers shouldn’t expect Ferguson to finish anywhere close to his TE3 finish from 2023.
