Cade Otton News
Wednesday, May 27, 9:37 AM
Tampa Bay Buccaneers tight end Cade Otton is not a flashy name in fantasy football, but his consistency and starting role have allowed him to stay on the fantasy radar as a decent depth piece. Otton has caught 59 passes in each of his last two seasons, operating as the No. 1 tight end in this Baker Mayfield-led offense. His touchdown total dropped to one last year, and as a result, his fantasy finish slipped to TE22 overall. Still, he has been a top-26 fantasy tight end in each of his five NFL seasons, and he offers low-end TE1 appeal when the Bucs' receivers miss time due to injury. For example, in the four games where both Mike Evans and Chris Godwin Jr. were injured last year, Otton averaged 5.0 catches and 50.3 receiving yards. Evans departed in free agency this year, but the Bucs still have a crowded receiver room, so we can't project Otton for a top-20 finish. Still, he's an extremely solid depth option in all fantasy leagues, including dynasty formats.

Tucker Kraft News
Wednesday, June 10, 11:23 AM
Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft (knee) said he expects to play in the Week 1 regular-season opener in early September without a pitch count, according to Matt Schneidman of The Athletic. The 25-year-old suffered a season-ending torn ACL in his knee last year and has not been taking part in organized team activities, but he's expected to return to the field for training camp this summer and be ready for the start of the upcoming campaign. How much Kraft can do at camp will ultimately decide whether he's a full-go for Week 1, so we'll keep a close eye on his progress going into late July. The former third-round pick in the 2023 NFL draft out of South Dakota State was well on his way to a breakout in 2025 before injuring his knee, catching 32 of his 44 targets for 489 yards and six touchdowns in just eight starts for the Packers. Despite coming off a major knee injury, RotoBaller has Kraft ranked as the No. 5 fantasy TE for 2026. He'll be a high-risk/high-reward TE selection, and his cost will continue to rise if he looks good during camp.
