Who Should I Start? Dallas Goedert or Ja'Tavion Sanders

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert caught all seven of his targets for 44 yards during Thursday's season opener against the Dallas Cowboys. The veteran pass-catcher was Jalen Hurts' preferred option in the passing game as he led the team in targets. Although he had a relatively low yardage total and wasn't able to find the end zone, fantasy managers should still be excited about his ability to produce with heavy volume headed his way on a consistent basis. Goedert remains a top-10 fantasy tight end heading into Week 2 against the Kansas City Chiefs, and he has a high ceiling in an offense that continues to trend upward.

Carolina Panthers tight end Ja'Tavion Sanders put together an impressive training camp, most notably as a receiver. Head coach Dave Canales recently spoke about his improvement as a pass-catcher. The second-year, fourth-round pick caught 33 passes for 342 yards and one touchdown during his rookie season. Interestingly, he did that on only 43 targets. Sanders was on the field often, but wasn't a favorite target for quarterback Bryce Young. Following an absence in Week 13 due to an injury, Sanders was almost completely uninvolved in the Carolina passing attack. He projects to be Carolina's primary tight end in 2025, but his rookie inconsistencies have made him nothing more than a late-round dart throw in fantasy football redraft leagues.
