Outlook Travis Kelce

Elite Tight End Value at a Significant Draft-Day Discount

At nearly 37 years old, Travis Kelce remains the undisputed top tight end for Patrick Mahomes in Kansas City. While his explosive 1,000-yard campaigns are likely in the past, he remains a highly reliable security blanket, coming off a strong 80-catch, 894-yard season.

Sharing the field with Rashee Rice and Xavier Worthy keeps defenses honest, allowing Kelce to find space in the middle. Our models project him for 73 receptions, 768 yards, and five touchdowns, keeping him well ahead of backups Noah Gray and Jared Wiley.

Kelce's ADP has settled around a highly reasonable 109 after spiking earlier in the summer. In 1.0 PPR formats, this late-round price represents an exceptional value, as his projected target volume offers a robust floor that vastly outperforms his sliding market cost.

Outlook DeVonta Smith

Promoted to Clear WR1 Status, Philly's Top Target is Poised for a Career-Defining Season

Following the departure of veteran star A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith enters the season as the undisputed leader of the Eagles' receiving corps. Backed by rookie Makai Lemon and speedster Hollywood Brown on the depth chart, Smith commands a massive target projection. He has historically proven his high floor, surpassing 800 receiving yards in five straight seasons, including 1,097 yards last year.

This dominant role has caused his market value to climb significantly. His ADP in PPR formats has risen from the late fourth round in May to a premium third-round pick around 38.00 in early July. Our models suggest this climbing cost remains a strong value rather than an over-hyped reach, as his volume security provides an incredibly safe foundation.

We project Smith to secure 82 receptions on 122 targets for 1,084 yards and six touchdowns, translating to a top-tier fantasy asset. With his superb route running and established chemistry with Jalen Hurts, Smith is a secure, high-ceiling starter. Fantasy managers should comfortably view him as a weekly locked-in WR2 with genuine WR1 upside.
