Outlook Jake Ferguson

Undervalued Volume Tight End Set for Another High-Floor Campaign

Coming off a productive 2025 campaign where he hauled in 87 passes and eight touchdowns, Jake Ferguson enters the season firmly entrenched as the lead tight end in Dallas. Operating atop the depth chart ahead of Brevyn Spann-Ford and Luke Schoonmaker, he remains one of Dak Prescott's most trusted interior options.

Our projections anticipate another high-floor PPR performance, forecasting 76 receptions for 725 yards and six touchdowns across 98 targets. Even with CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens commanding defensive focus on the perimeter, Ferguson should consistently generate volume over the middle and near the goal line.

Draft market trends show Ferguson's cost plummeting from a steady pick 110 in early August down to roughly pick 160. This late-summer slide creates an exceptional value opportunity for fantasy managers who want proven, starting-caliber tight end volume without paying a premium price on draft day.

Outlook Trey McBride

Dominant Target Volume Solidifies Elite TE1 Status

Trey McBride has cemented himself as an elite tight end and a central figure in Arizona's passing attack. Coming off a monster 2025 campaign where he tallied 135 receptions for 1,318 yards and 11 scores, he operates as an unquestioned focal point in the Cardinals' offensive hierarchy alongside Marvin Harrison Jr.

Coaching staff plans to expand McBride's downfield route tree further bolster his ceiling. Our projections forecast another dominant campaign with 125 catches, 1,200 receiving yards, and 11 touchdowns on 154 targets, delivering weekly lineup-differentiating production at a scarce position.

Draft market trends show his ADP settling steadily around the late second round (pick 22–24) after hovering near pick 18 earlier this summer. In 1.0 PPR formats, this slight price dip makes him a premier value anchor capable of providing wide-receiver-caliber volume from your tight end slot.
