Who Should I Start? Dallas Goedert or Mike Gesicki

Thursday, April 17, 1:04 PM

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert is a name to watch on the trade market as the 2025 NFL draft approaches, sources tell FOX Sports' Jordan Schultz. Interested teams think that the Eagles would be open to future draft picks in exchange for Goedert if they don't receive any 2025 draft capital. The 30-year-old veteran is heading into the final year of his deal in 2025 and could be looking for a new contract. Goedert helped the Eagles win the Super Bowl over the Kansas City Chiefs in convincing fashion, but he had only 42 receptions on 52 targets for 496 yards and two touchdowns in 10 regular-season games in 2024 while missing time with hamstring and knee injuries. His 496 receiving yards were his fewest since his rookie season in 2018. Goedert has been a borderline TE1/2 in fantasy, but a trade away from Philly could actually benefit him.

The Cincinnati Bengals re-signed tight end Mike Gesicki to a three-year deal worth $25.5 million on Saturday, a source tells NFL Network's Mike Garafolo. Gesicki will make $12 million in the first year of the deal and will return to Cincy as their top pass-catching tight end. The 29-year-old broke out in his first year with the Bengals in 2024 with 65 receptions for 665 yards in 17 games, although he only found the end zone twice. The Bengals also have Tanner Hudson that they just re-signed this week, too, but Gesicki should once again function as the team's primary pass-catching TE after he was the third leading receiver last year behind receivers Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins. Gesicki should at least be in consideration as a low-end TE1 in fantasy in 2025, and he'd see an even bigger boost if the Bengals end up trading Higgins this offseason.
