Who Should I Start? Darren Waller or Greg Dulcich

Wednesday, September 17, 2:31 PM

The Miami Dolphins created buzz in July when they signed previously retired tight end Darren Waller, but through two weeks, the 33-year-old has yet to make his debut. Waller last played in 2023 with the Giants, posting 552 yards and 52 catches, but questions remain about whether he can regain his form. For now, the Dolphins have leaned exclusively on Tanner Conner at tight end, who has managed just two receptions for 20 yards on four targets this season. Miami's offense has struggled to find consistent balance, and while the passing attack should feature plenty of Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle (if active), the lack of production at tight end remains a glaring hole. Fantasy managers should continue to leave Waller on waivers until there's clarity about his role and timeline for return.

According to Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network, the New York Giants are cutting tight end Greg Dulcich. This is a surprising movie, as the veteran tight end enjoyed a productive preseason. In their preseason finale, the 25-year-old found the back of the end zone twice and tallied 26 yards. However, Dulcich was unable to earn a spot on the final roster. The former third-round pick from the 2022 NFL Draft began his NFL career with the Broncos. With the Broncos, Dulcich enjoyed a productive rookie season, totaling 411 yards, but would only catch eight passes in his following two seasons. In 2024, Dulcich appeared in five games for the Giants but never caught a pass. Given his productive preseason, Dulcich could draw some interest in the free agent market as a depth tight end. However, given his lack of regular-season production, fantasy managers should leave him off draft boards.
