Can Chig Okonkwo Become a TE1 in Dynasty Leagues?

Friday, May 29, 8:08 AM

Washington Commanders tight end Chig Okonkwo is trending upward after his change of scenery this past offseason. The Commanders signed Okonkwo after he spent four seasons with the Tennessee Titans. With the Titans, he managed to rank as the TE25 or higher every year. That stretch included three consecutive finishes as the overall TE21 from 2023 through 2025. He's always been a decent option for targets, and his ability to stretch the field gives him explosive upside. However, he's been relatively uninvolved near the goal line for a tight end. He caught three touchdowns as a rookie in 2022, and he had just two each of the last two seasons. We like Okonkwo's chances to find the end zone more often in Washington. During his two years as a Commander, Ertz totaled 11 touchdowns, averaging 0.37 touchdowns per game. The Washington offense has some work to do as a whole, but Okonkwo is the clear No. 1 tight end here, and he could ultimately be Jayden Daniels' second-favorite target behind Terry McLaurin. Despite finishing lower than TE20 every year, the Maryland product has jumped to TE17 in RotoBaller's latest dynasty fantasy football rankings.

Colston Loveland News

Just How High is Colston Loveland's Dynasty Ceiling?

Sunday, May 31, 8:37 AM

Chicago Bears tight end Colston Loveland was one of 2025's most exciting rookies, and expectations are sky-high heading into his second season. By the end of the year, Chicago had built their base offense around multi-tight end sets, from which Loveland became a fantasy dominator, topping 18.4 half-PPR points in the final two contests of the regular season and in the Bears' Wild Card win over the Packers. With Chicago trading away D.J. Moore and spending a third-round pick on Stanford tight end Sam Roush, there's a chance the Bears could lean even more into heavy personnel usage in 2026, which could genuinely make Loveland undervalued even at RotoBaller's dynasty TE3 and a top 50 overall player. With three tight ends on the field in 2025, Loveland averaged almost 4.7 yards per route run while racking up more than half of the team's receiving yards from such sets. While receivers Rome Odunze and Luther Burden III both offer a lot for dynasty managers to be excited about in an offense without Moore, Loveland could see the highest ceiling of the three and is potentially still a bargain despite being one of the most hyped players of the 2026 offseason.
