Dynasty Tight End Tiers Going Into 2024?

[StripesOfKC]

Laporta
Mcbride
Andrews

Hockenson
Pitts
Kincaid

Kittle
Kelce
Njoku
Engram

Goedert
Kmet
Mayer
Friermuth
Kraft
Musgrave
Schultz
Likely

Some other darts I'd throw (Fant, Dulcich, Woods) with more upside than some of the bottom guys but that's just about all the guys I care about

And really I probably am avoiding the tier 4 guys as well unless I think they are underpriced (Pat F, Kraft) or have a real chance at an elite breakout (Mayer)

^^^ That feels a bit low for Kelce. But I guess if you're thinking age, okay. He was STILL the #2 TE this year.

From his comments I would be more surprised if he plays past next season than I would be if he retires this offseason

That’s the reason.

Still believe he has another elite season in store (he has been banged up all of this year since preseason)

Fair enough. He's getting old for sure.

I like this list. I'd move Kelce up to tier 2 and Pitts down to the Tier 4, but overall this is pretty good.

pretty good ranks. Tier two is a little iffy, imo. Hard to ranks Pitts that high after finishing TE33 and 14 last two years in PPR. And Hock with the injury. Isn't he possible to miss some time next year? plus the uncertainties at QB and hopefully much improved play at WR for next year. for me I'd prob flip flop tier 2 and then move the whole thing down to about the Njoku Engram range.

Interested to hear where you'd hope Bowers slots in as a prospect if all goes well, what with recent early TE success

This is what I'm curious about too, I'd say he'll be tier 2 basically off the bat. The better question may be if you have a top X TE on your roster already, are you passing on Bowers in a rookie draft, that X being anywhere from 3-7 maybe.

i like this question because I have MAndrews and the 1.07 on the rebuild team in sig, NON TE-Prem. I'll probably be staring down Bowers, but honestly believe he will be about two picks back from there at consensus. And even if he is consensus 1.07, for me with MAndrews the answer is no.

as it stands today, I'm roughly thinking MHJ at 1.1, and hopefully QB4/5ish at 1.07. I've roughly got it ranked thus in SF up to Bowers: MHJ, Willams, Daniels, Maye, Nabers, Penix, JJM, Odunze, Bowers.

I fear JJM could slip and I'll have to move him down, while Penix rises. 1.07 could be a no QB zone and I'd hate to reach. in which case, I'm hopin JJM is more reasonable a pick at 2.01 after I double up on stud WRs. Any which way you slice it, Bowers is very unlikely for me at the range

I have 6 and 8 but have Kincaid on my roster. Seems folly for me to take him even if the landing spot is good, where I own MAndrews I'm also not considering it. He's still got a lot of juice left, when the wheels fall off then you worry about it. Also in non-TEP. 6-8 is going to be prime WR territory and I bet one RB sneaks in 5-9 too.

[Mike11]

Kincaid last 3 games:
4 receptions 87 yards
7 receptions 84 yards
3 receptions 59 yards and a touchdown

Led all Bills receivers in all three games in yards very quietly.

I don't understand how Jake Ferguson isn't on this list. He just posted 71/761/5 in his second year. Seems like he should at least be in T4 if not the bottom of T3.

That was my big takeaway too. I’d take him over several of these guys, personally.

Thirded. The Ferg Daddy is as real as it gets.

I would argue he's showing more athletically than Schultz ever did as a playmaker in the same role, too. Some of Ferg's catches have been outright ridiculous.

[tstafford]

Probably worth stashing Davis Allen if you can.

Ooooh. I likey this advice
