Backup Role in New Orleans Keeps Fant Off Fantasy Draft Radars
Noah Fant enters his first season in New Orleans operating as the secondary tight end behind Juwan Johnson. Coming off a 297-yard campaign in Cincinnati, the eighth-year veteran provides reliable depth in a re-tooled passing attack led by quarterback Tyler Shough.
Draft momentum for Fant has remained ice-cold, with his ADP sliding into the late 600s and roster rates sitting at just two percent. Our season projections mirror that market skepticism, anticipating 31 receptions for 289 yards and two touchdowns across 41 targets (66.5 PPR fantasy points).
While Fant demonstrated red-zone flashes with Shough during preseason action, his path to consistent volume is blocked in a pass-catching group featuring Chris Olave and Johnson. Fant is currently a fantasy afterthought who only gains streaming relevance if injuries shake up the Saints' tight end hierarchy.

Outlook Hollywood Brown
Buried on Philadelphia Depth Chart Amid Plummeting Draft Stock
Hollywood Brown enters the season operating in a depth role behind starting pass catchers DeVonta Smith, Dontayvion Wicks, and Makai Lemon in Philadelphia. While he showcased big-play ability with an explosive training camp touchdown reception late in August, his path to consistent snaps remains heavily restricted.
Our projections expect a minor rotational role, forecasting 29 receptions for 350 yards and three touchdowns across 30 targets, totaling 83.0 PPR points. With Saquon Barkley and Dallas Goedert also commanding substantial offensive volume, targets will be scarce.
Draft market momentum reflects this reality, with Brown's PPR ADP tumbling from around pick 330 in July to well past 670 by late August. Fantasy managers have largely moved on, dropping his roster rate down to two percent and leaving him as a deep-league waiver monitor.
