Dalton Schultz Should Again Be Part of the Streaming Conversation in 2026

Friday, July 24, 6:25 AM

Houston Texans tight end Dalton Schultz saw more than 100 targets and made a career-high 82 catches on his way to a TE11 finish in 2025. Rarely flashy, Schultz is a player who consistently earns the trust of his quarterbacks, and he has now finished as a TE1 in five of the last six seasons despite topping five touchdown catches only once in that stretch. A reliable target-earner, Schultz has caught at least 50 passes in every season since taking over as a full-time starter in 2020, providing a safe fantasy floor at a position where that is often enough. While he has turned in a top five weekly finish only twice in the past two seasons, Schultz has never strayed far from usability. Although he only enters the year as RotoBaller's TE24, it should come as no surprise when he once again enters the weekly streaming conversation in 2026.

Terrance Ferguson Drawing High Praise After Strong Offseason

Saturday, August 1, 10:54 AM

Los Angeles Rams tight end Terrance Ferguson has been one of the team's offseason standouts, according to Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated. Breer wrote that Ferguson is showing he can line up across the formation and create after the catch, with the Rams believing the 2025 second-round pick could eventually develop into one of the league's top tight ends. Ferguson's rookie stat line was modest at 11 catches for 231 yards and three touchdowns in 14 games, but most of that production came after Los Angeles made three-tight-end sets a bigger part of the offense in Week 7. He recorded 10 receptions for 210 yards and all three scores from that point forward. Colby Parkinson remains at the front of a crowded tight end room, so consistent targets are not guaranteed. Ferguson is more interesting than his rookie totals suggest, but he remains a deeper redraft option until his role becomes clearer. Dynasty managers have more reason to be encouraged by the direction of his second offseason.
