Dallas Goedert Still Offers Short-Term Fantasy Value

Wednesday, August 5, 11:06 AM

Philadelphia Eagles tight end Dallas Goedert is still the starter. That part is not complicated. He caught a career-high 60 passes for 591 yards and 11 touchdowns on 82 targets last season, though fantasy managers should not chase the touchdown total. His previous high was five. Philadelphia brought him back on a one-year deal and then used the 54th overall pick on Eli Stowers. The succession plan is easy to see, but it probably will not arrive in 2026. Goedert enters camp atop the depth chart, and A.J. Brown's departure leaves targets to replace in an offense otherwise led by DeVonta Smith. Hollywood Brown, Dontayvion Wicks, Makai Lemon, and Stowers will all get chances, so another huge scoring season is no lock. RotoBaller has Goedert at TE16 in redraft and TE18 in dynasty, while his current redraft ADP is TE15. That is about right. He is a reasonable late pick for managers who wait at tight end and a useful target for contenders needing a one-year answer. Rebuilders should look elsewhere.

Najee Harris Remains Unsigned, His Value Will be Dependent on Where He Lands

Monday, July 27, 7:00 PM

27-year-old running back out of Alabama, Najee Harris, tore his Achilles early in the 2025 season after he was signed to a one-year deal by the Los Angeles Chargers. He finished the season with only 15 rush attempts for 61 yards and three receptions for 25 yards. Harris spent his first four seasons in the NFL with the Pittsburgh Steelers and finished as the RB20 or better in all four of those seasons, rushing for more than 1,000 yards and six touchdowns in all of those seasons. Harris has never been an extremely efficient runner, as evidenced by his career 3.9 YPC; however, he has proven to be a workhorse, logging 255 or more carries in all of his first four seasons. At 27 years old, it's fair to ask what he has left in the tank; however, if he were to sign with a team that would provide him with a timeshare or ample opportunities, he could return to the fantasy radar. Based on name value alone, Harris remains a hold in dynasty formats that roster more bench spots; however, in most redraft formats, he goes undrafted because he is still on the free-agent market.
