Oronde Gadsden | Fantasy Outlook
Under-the-Radar Tight End Primed for a Sophomore Leap in Los Angeles
Entering his second season, Oronde Gadsden is positioned as the top tight end on our depth chart for the Los Angeles Chargers, sitting ahead of David Njoku. Gadsden will catch passes from franchise quarterback Justin Herbert, operating in a young receiving corps featuring Ladd McConkey and Quentin Johnston. After posting a promising 49-catch, 664-yard debut in 2025, his role in the passing game appears highly secure.
Our models project Gadsden to build on his rookie success, forecasting 50 receptions on 80 targets for 598 yards and four touchdowns. At age 23, his athletic profile presents a mismatch for linebackers, especially in the red zone. With a stable roster rate of around 51%, fantasy managers are beginning to recognize his intriguing breakout potential.
In draft circles, Gadsden's stock has fluctuated wildly, spiking into the mid-70s in early June before settling back to a highly reasonable ADP of 123. Our projections view this current market cost as a significant value opportunity in 1.0 PPR formats, making him an ideal late-round target.
