I'm a late tight end drafting kinda guy. It's rare that you'll see me draft TE in the first 5 rounds unless someone just drops so low that I can't help myself. Here's a copy paste out of a portion of our cheat sheets broke out into tiers.
Tier One
Player | Tm | Bye | Pos | SOS | FP | ADP |
Travis Kelce | KCC | 10 | TE | 21 | 174 | 18 |
George Kittle | SFO | 11 | TE | 5 | 155 | 23 |
Mark Andrews | BAL | 8 | TE | 13 | 129 | 39 |
Tier Two
Check the ADP of Gronk and Cook below. Cook is being under drafted but I expect him to out perform in his second season under Peyton. Gronk is an injury risk but he wins leagues until then. Draft both accordingly.
Player | Tm | Bye | Pos | SOS | FP | ADP |
Jared Cook | NOS | 6 | TE | 1 | 125 | 104 |
Zach Ertz | PHI | 9 | TE | 7 | 118 | 49 |
Rob Gronkowski | TBB | 13 | TE | 9 | 102 | 85 |
Tier Three
Player | Tm | Bye | Pos | SOS | FP | ADP |
Austin Hooper | CLE | 9 | TE | 30 | 102 | 106 |
Hunter Henry | LAC | 10 | TE | 11 | 95 | 84 |
Darren Waller | LVR | 6 | TE | 17 | 94 | 66 |
Evan Engram | NYG | 11 | TE | 6 | 93 | 73 |
Tier Four
This is the final tier and is more about upside than expected results.
Player | Tm | Bye | Pos | SOS | FP | ADP |
Jonnu Smith | TEN | 7 | TE | 20 | 83 | 149 |
Tyler Higbee | LAR | 9 | TE | 8 | 82 | 98 |
Hayden Hurst | ATL | 10 | TE | 16 | 85 | 110 |
T.J. Hockenson | DET | 5 | TE | 4 | 50 | 131 |
Chris Herndon | NYJ | 11 | TE | 26 | 71 | 176 |
