Deep dives
Gerald Everett a Sleeper Pick at Tight End
Gerald Everett is often overlooked, but he had a productive season last year and has a connection with Justin Herbert. With new offensive coordinator Kellen Moore in Dallas, Dalton Schultz was a top tight end in points per game over the last two years. Everett could see similar success.
Jawan Johnson a Touchdown Machine
Jawan Johnson had an impressive second half of the season last year and is a great red zone threat. With the Saints having an easy schedule, Johnson should have plenty of opportunities in scoring positions. He has proven to be a productive target for touchdowns and can be a valuable fantasy asset.
Hunter Henry Underrated for Fantasy
Hunter Henry is too low on this list and should not be overlooked. He tied for the team lead in red zone targets last year and has a strong connection with quarterback Mack Jones. With Mike Gesicki already dealing with injuries, Henry is poised to have a big year.
Luke Musgrave a Rising Rookie Tight End
Luke Musgrave is a rookie tight end who has been receiving a lot of buzz in Packers camp. He has the potential to be a primary target in Green Bay's offense, especially with the lack of competition for targets. Keep an eye on Musgrave as he could have a surprising rookie season.
Importance of Paying Attention to Wide Receivers in Pittsburgh Steelers
The Pittsburgh Steelers have a reputation for developing wide receivers, making them a team to watch when late-round wide receivers start to excel. Although players like Calvin Austin may not be consistent fantasy options, the Steelers' ability to develop wide receivers makes them a good dynasty stash.
Analysis of Top Tight Ends in Fantasy Football
Travis Kelce is considered the best tight end option in fantasy football with his consistent high-scoring performances. However, concerns arise over his touchdown production sustainability. Mark Andrews and TJ Hockenson are placed in the same tier due to their strong performance and potential to lead their respective teams in targets. Darren Waller is expected to have a bounce-back year as the main weapon for the Las Vegas Raiders. George Kittle's value is enhanced with the return of reliable quarterback Brock Purdey, while Kyle Pitts presents significant upside as a versatile target for the Atlanta Falcons.
