Outlook Dalton Schultz
Veteran Tight End Offers PPR Floor at a Discounted Price
Dalton Schultz returns as the primary tight end in Houston's C.J. Stroud-led offense ahead of Foster Moreau and Cade Stover. With wide receiver Tank Dell sidelined on injured reserve, Schultz should maintain a reliable intermediate target share alongside top perimeter threat Nico Collins.
Following an 83-catch, 785-yard campaign in 2025, our models project a modest regression to 55 receptions, 585 receiving yards, and three touchdowns. While he rarely generates explosive chunk plays, his consistent target floor makes him a dependable option in 1.0 PPR formats.
Schultz's draft stock has steadily plummeted from around pick 163 in mid-July to past pick 220 entering draft season. With market sentiment cooling significantly, our projections view him as an underpriced late-round value for fantasy managers waiting on the position.

Outlook Brenton Strange
Contract Security and Lead Role Position Him as a Prime Late-Round Steal
Strange solidified his status as Jacksonville's primary tight end this offseason, landing a lucrative three-year contract extension. Coming off a 2025 campaign where he tallied 51 receptions for 633 yards and three scores, head coach Liam Coen highlighted Strange as an evolving focal point across both run and pass concepts.
Our projections forecast continued progression, slating Strange for 55 catches, 620 receiving yards, and four touchdowns on 90 targets (154.0 PPR points). While Jacksonville features plenty of perimeter targets like Brian Thomas Jr. and Jakobi Meyers, Strange sits firmly atop the tight end room with minimal competition for middle-of-the-field work.
Draft sentiment has cooled steadily, as his ADP tumbled from 139 in mid-July down near 200 by draft season. At roughly 35% rostered, this falling price makes Strange an intriguing late-round value steal who can easily outperform his suppressed market cost in standard 1.0 PPR leagues.
