"Gray is entering his fifth season with the Chiefs, all of which have been as a backup to Travis Kelce. Gray's usage and production has increased during each of his pro seasons, which includes career-best marks in targets, catches, yards and touchdowns last season. Gray generated some hype when he scored four of his five touchdowns during a two-game stretch, but that proved fluky, as he averaged just 3.3 targets and 5.1 fantasy PPG the rest of the season. The 26-year-old is not worth your attention on draft day, but would be a worthwhile waiver add if 35-year-old Kelce were to miss time."


"Gray's production grew year over year from 2021 until 2024, but he took a big step back in that regard during the 2025 campaign, amassing just 21 catches for 178 yards and failing to find paydirt for the first time in his career. With Travis Kelce a retirement candidate, Gray was once looked at as the potential heir to the starting role, but there are certainly questions as to whether he's a starting-caliber tight end. Pending Kelce's looming retirement decision, the Chiefs' offseason moves should be telling about the team's plans for Gray moving forward."

"Mims is entering his third NFL season with breakout potential after a red-hot finish to 2024. After barely seeing work his first year and a half in the league (1.6 touches per game), the 2023 second-round pick handled 12 carries and 37 targets during Weeks 10-18 (eight games). He scored six TDs and averaged 13.0 fantasy PPG, which included three games with 19-plus points in his final five outings. On the negative side, Mims remained a part-time player during his heater, failing to play more than 48% of the offensive snaps in any game prior to hitting a career-high 69% in the playoff loss to Buffalo. With Courtland Sutton the only receiver clearly ahead of him on the depth chart in Denver, Mims is positioned for a Year 3 leap. He's a fine late-round lottery ticket."


"Mims was unable to have much of an impact on the stat sheet despite seeing four targets against Kansas City. The 23-year-old wideout played 34 of the Broncos' 72 offensive snaps, behind Courtland Sutton (59) and Lil'Jordan Humphrey (43), but ahead of Troy Franklin (27) and Michael Bandy (7). The 2025 campaign has been an underwhelming one for Mims, who secured more than three catches in just three games this season. Through 14 games, the Oklahoma product has recorded just 35 receptions on 48 targets for 312 yards and a touchdown, adding 12 rushes for 78 yards and a score. The Broncos have not used him down the field much this season, capping his upside in Denver's aerial attack. Mims should not be trusted for fantasy purposes as the Broncos host the Chargers in Week 18."

"Okonkwo has settled in as a consistent contributor in Tennessee, having finished each of his three seasons in the range of 450 to 528 yards and 5.7 to 6.7 fantasy PPG. The 2022 fourth-round pick has yet to finish a season better than 15th in targets, catches, yards or TDs. Scoring has been a clear issue, as Okonkwo has 10 end zone targets and six TDs in 51 career games. On the plus side, he saw a huge spike in work late last season, producing 199 yards on 23 touches during Weeks 15-17 (his 28 targets ranked first and 43.9 fantasy points second among TEs during the span). There aren't many mouths to feed in Tennessee, so it's possible the 25-year-old can carry that momentum into 2025, but he'll need decent play from rookie QB Cam Ward. Okonkwo is best viewed as a back-end TE2."


"Okonkwo had emerged as a favorite target of Cam Ward (shoulder) in recent weeks, logging at least six targets in each of the last three games while also scoring two touchdowns in that span. However, the entire offense suffered once Brandon Allen was forced into action, leaving Okonkwo with a disappointing line to end the regular season. Okonkwo still managed to log career highs in receptions (56), yards (560) and targets (79) across 17 regular-season games. He's set to hit free agency this offseason and is likely to join a new offense after Gunnar Helm established himself as an effective pass catcher at tight end in his rookie year."

"Ekeler is returning for his ninth NFL season, including his second in Washington. Ekeler played eight full games with Brian Robinson Jr. last season (including the playoffs), with Ekeler handling 5.5 carries and 4.5 targets per game while playing 51% of the snaps. In those eight games, he wasn't much of a fantasy factor (10.0 PPG, clearing 12.8 once), which can somewhat be traced to a nonexistent role near the goal line (zero TDs or carries inside the 5). With Robinson traded, Ekeler's role may increase slightly this season, but that's not a sure thing with rookie Jacory Croskey-Merritt in the fold. Ekeler was productive when Robinson was sidelined last season (3 TDs -- all from the 1-yard line -- and 15.4 PPG), so while he's now 30 years old, he has the look of a low-ceiling flex."


"Ekeler went down while running a route in the flat in the fourth quarter of last Thursday's defeat at Green Bay and quickly was ruled out with an Achilles injury. After undergoing the necessary tests, a torn Achilles was confirmed, thereby wiping out the rest of his 2025 campaign. Rookie seventh-rounder Jacory Croskey-Merritt is expected to take on a good portion of the early-down work out of the Commanders backfield moving forward, but Jeremy McNichols and Chris Rodriguez also are on hand for any RB reps that linger."

"This was a bounce-back season for Mitchell, who was limited to just five games in 2024 after recovering from a knee injury suffered as a rookie. Mitchell was inactive as a healthy scratch for the first month of the season before getting into the mix for the rest of the season. Though Mitchell never garnered more than nine carries in any game, he was effective with his chances by sustaining a 5.8 YPC figure over 59 rushes. He seemed to regain his speed with four carries of at least 20 yards. Mitchell enters the offseason as a restricted free agent, meaning the Ravens will be able to offer him various types of qualifying offers. Derrick Henry and Justice Hill are both under contract for 2026, however."
