Dalton Schultz News
Saturday, August 8, 11:45 AM
Houston Texans tight end Dalton Schultz was busy last year. He saw 106 targets, caught a career-high 82 passes for 777 yards and three touchdowns, and finished as the TE11. Finding that much work again could be difficult. Nico Collins is still the top receiver, Jayden Higgins is coming off a 41-catch, 525-yard rookie season and has drawn strong reviews in camp, while Tank Dell is back on the field after missing all of 2025 with a knee injury. Houston also signed Foster Moreau and used the 59th overall pick on tight end Marlin Klein. Schultz is still the Texans' TE1, and he played more than 71% of the offensive snaps last season, so his role isn't disappearing. There are simply more options around C.J. Stroud now. RotoBaller has Schultz 177th overall and TE24. He still makes sense as a second tight end, but another TE11 finish would require much of last year's target volume to stick around.

Harold Fannin Jr. News
Wednesday, August 12, 12:01 PM
Cleveland Browns tight end Harold Fannin Jr. already showed he could handle plenty as a rookie. He caught 72 passes for 731 yards and six touchdowns on 107 targets last season, finishing as the TE5 in half-PPR. David Njoku is with the Chargers now, and Fannin sits alone at the top of Cleveland's tight end depth chart. The groin injury that cost him Week 18 required offseason surgery, but he was cleared before camp and has looked active since. Fannin caught four passes in the Browns' first padded practice, then grabbed two red-zone touchdowns from Shedeur Sanders on Aug. 10. Cleveland did add more competition by drafting KC Concepcion 24th overall and Denzel Boston 39th, so another 107 targets can't just be penciled in. The quarterback job is still unsettled, too. Even with all of that, Fannin already produced in a bad passing environment and now has the tight end job to himself. RotoBaller has him at TE8. That isn't a bargain-basement ranking, but there is still room for Fannin to beat it if Cleveland's offense takes even a small step forward.
