Who Should I Start? Charlie Woerner or Terrance Ferguson

The Atlanta Falcons have agreed to terms on a three-year, $12 million deal with free-agent tight end Charlie Woerner on Monday, according to his agent, Alex Essex. Woerner, a sixth-round selection in 2020 by the San Francisco 49ers out of Georgia, had just 11 catches on 15 targets for 120 yards and no touchdowns in 65 games (seven starts) in his four seasons in the Bay Area, so he shouldn't be expected to do much in Atlanta besides providing insurance at the tight end position behind Kyle Pitts. The 26-year-old is a blocking-first tight end anyway, so when he's in the game for new offensive coordinator Zac Robinson, it will probably be to pave the way for running back Bijan Robinson.

Despite limited playing time early on in his rookie season, Los Angeles Rams tight end Terrance Ferguson has earned a more significant role in the team's offense. The University of Oregon product has had a slow start to the season after battling a groin injury in training camp. While he's only appeared on the field for eight total snaps across two contests, head coach Sean McVay has taken note of his development and intends to get him more involved in the offense. "We have to be able to figure out a way to be able to get him going," said McVay. "He's going to be a really good player for us, I believe. I thought he did an excellent job with the opportunity that he had [last week]." Ferguson is firmly fourth in LA's TE pecking order, but it wouldn't be surprising to see him pick up more playing time moving forward. It remains to be seen if he'll become a viable play in redraft leagues this season, but he's an excellent stash in dynasty formats.
