I’m looking at buying guys like Worthy, Golden, Addison, and Hunter at cost.

They all have the elite wr2 ceiling I’m looking for. Who are you fading and who are you buying and why?

Top Keeper Options:

Gibbs - 1st Rd
Skattebo - 7th Rd
Pickens - 4th Rd

Free Agency Pickups (would lose last rd pick of draft):

Michael Wilson
Jaxson Dart
Wandale Robinson
Christian Watson

^these 4 options here i’m not considering much but threw them on here in case anyone had a good case for them. I think i’m leaning Skatt unless my 1st pick is late in the 1st rd (we still don’t know draft positions yet).

Open to any advice!

Hello! I am in a 12 man PPR league that holds a competition each year to determine draft spot selection order.

I have 3rd choice. Picks 2 and 5 have already been taken. I am hopelessly torn where to select.

I am leaning Gibbs at 1.01 and filling out the WRs down the line. Alternatively 6/7 targeting Amon-Ra and hope for Chase R2, or 3 for Jamarr and just coping with poor RB room down the line...

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Help me out, don't know who to cut. Thinking long term as well

So I have the third overall pick and my current rbs are swift, Omarion Hampton, and Jordan mason. Without knowing who's on the waivers that could be drafted, is #3 overall way too early to grab price? Its 10 team league, .5 ppr, and I'm drafting #3 and then again at 13th overall for the second round and I don't feel like he'll make it back to me. Thanks everyone

Aiming to be a true contender in 2027. Have no shot at 1.01 but should be in contention for 1.02. Thoughts?

For a full PPR league would it be wiser to keep Ladd McConkey for a Round 5 pick or Cam Skattebo for a Round 10? I have the 5th overall pick to start. I know Cam is a good value but he seems reckless coming back from injury and Ladd may have a bounce back year based on off season roster and coach changes.

Need some help: Nico Collins and Quinshon Judkins for James Cook III. Who wins this trade? I'm really on the fence and would love to hear everyone's thoughts.

Dynasty with a redraft every 4 years.
12-team, Start 8, 2.0 PPR for TEs (1.0 for everyone else).

This is my first time in a TEP league.

My starters/flex are locked in, and I just drafted Eli Stowers as a developmental TE behind Laporta. Now I’m on the clock for my next bench spot between Dallas Goedert and Chig Okonkwo (Andrew’s, Hock, Henry also available).

My thoughts:

Goedert: Locks up the entire Philly TE room so I have guaranteed 2026 production while Stowers acclimates, but he’s 31 on a 1-year deal and caps total upside.

Chig: 26 on a 3-yr deal with Jayden Daniels. Higher ceiling/age, and if Chig hits and Stowers takes over Philly, I own 3 high end starting TEs in a TEP league.

Given it’s a shallow Start 8 where TEs get 2.0 PPR in the FLEX, do I take the safe handcuff/floor in Goedert or chase the double-hit ceiling with Chig?

In our latest episode, we discuss our 2026 TE strategies for auction drafts, as well as some of our targets and fades based on current AAV.

TE is a tricky one, and the main school of thought seem to be "great or late." I think it really depends on what type of roster you want to build, and how many starters you have. If you play in a league that only starts 2WRs and one flex, for example, you can probably afford to spend a little more on the position. You can be increasingly proactive and aggressive when you have fewer positions to worry about. If, on the other hand, your league starts 3WRs and multiple flex spots, perhaps you lean towards allocating resources there, and that's typically what I like to do. I won't avoid the most expensive TEs outright just because they're pricey. I'm always on the lookout for bargains, and adjusting your draft plan on the fly is important, especially during the draft when bids starts flying and the adrenaline is pumping.

I do usually recommend waiting until late to draft a TE, since it's one of the easiest positions to replace without needing to allocate much from your draft budget. The position has gotten deeper, perhaps the deepest we've seen in years, and the gap between mid-tier options continues to shrink.

The difference between the overall TE 6 and the TE 12 the past three seasons has been just over 2 fpts/g.

IMO, TE is not where you gain your biggest advantage, but it’s very easy to lose value by allocating too much of your budget there. That’s why waiting on TE fits nicely into the hero WR build I've been advocating for all summer. Spend up where scarcity exists, and save where replacement value is high.

My TE targets:

Dalton Kincaid
Current AAV (Last 30 days):
1QB $2 | SF $4

Admittedly, Kincaid is a higher injury risk than some other TEs. He's coming off a PCL injury, and over the last month, his AAV has been on a downward trajectory. I think the injury could be playing a role in how drafters view him, but his snap percentage might also be a factor. Kincaid missed a bunch of time last season. Looking at 2024, he only played a 58% snap share. 2023 was a little better at 63%, so perhaps he just isn't a full time player. But why I like him in auctions this year really just comes down to his price and the team he plays for. Kincaid is a good example of a low risk, high reward player. He was also the most efficient TE last season (0.27 TPRR, 3.19 YPRR). The Bills are tied for second with the Lions with the highest point total per game, and when Josh Allen is your quarterback, Kincaid has the potential to be a good fantasy TE for your team, even if he's not on the field as much as we'd all like. There's risk, absolutely, but you can pair him with another cheap TE (or two if you have a deep bench) and hedge your bet a little.

George Kittle
Current AAV (Last 30 days):
1QB $3 | SF $4

Almost everything I said about Kincaid can be said about Kittle, except for the part about his playing time. Kittle's been among the lead leaders in snap percentage for years now, and unlike Kincaid, he hardly ever comes off the field. His cost has never exceeded $6, which happened only once in the last month. Kittle might actually be my favorite TE target if you decide you want to avoid the highest priced guys and even some of the players in that $5-$10 range like Kraft, Fanin, and Pitts. We'll see what he looks like when training camp starts soon, and whether or not he's lost any of his explosiveness, but even with the injury concerns and his age, he's absolutely got top 5 potential. Like Kincaid, pair him with another high upside guy that won't cost you a lot, Gadsden, Likely, Okonkwo, or Brenton Strange all who could be considered breakout candidates.

My TE avoid:

Trey McBride
Current AAV (Last 30 days)
1QB $33 | SF $26

McBride may be a somewhat controversial name here, but over the last month, his AAV has eclipsed Bowers' for the most expensive TE in both formats and imo, that's pretty wild.  McBride's an absolute beast, no doubt, but I can't quite understand why drafters are willing to pay such a premium for him. Maybe folks are chasing last year's points and assume that with Jacoby Brissett likely starting the year, McBride's again an automatic 17 or 18 pts/g. The Cardinals were the league's most pass heavy team last season, so I expect some regression there, and while I think Brissett will start, Arizona could quickly pivot to rookie Carson Beck, especially if they find themselves out of playoff contention early on. It's plausible they could go 1-7 or 0-8 and make the switch to Beck, which would probably be a big negative for all the Arizona pass catchers. I'd say that If you're debating between McBride or Bowers and you find yourself in a position to draft Bowers for less, you should immediately pounce. Alternatively, you could save yourself quite a bit and draft someone like Loveland (currently 45% cheaper in 1QB; 30% cheaper in SF) or Warren (currently 65% cheaper in 1QB; 55% cheaper in SF) and probably still feel really good about your TE and even better about the money you saved!
