Dawson Knox has Stash Value

Friday, July 10, 10:45 AM

Buffalo Bills tight end Dawson Knox signed a new three-year extension with the organization this offseason. It was a bit surprising to see the Bills commit to a three-year deal with Knox, but it goes to show how much they value him on this roster. Knox is coming off a decent season in 2025. He recorded 36 receptions, 417 receiving yards, and four touchdowns across 17 games last season. Those aren't bad numbers for someone who is stuck behind Dalton Kincaid on the depth chart. The expectation is that Knox will continue being the primary backup tight end in Buffalo. He should be considered a touchdown-dependent TE2 while Kincaid is healthy. Dynasty managers who don't have a ton of depth at tight end should consider stashing Knox. The 29-year-old is capable of making plays when given the chance, but unfortunately, his opportunities are limited.

Can Colby Parkinson Still Provide Dynasty Depth From a Crowded Tight End Room?

Saturday, June 27, 5:49 AM

Los Angeles Rams tight end Colby Parkinson led his position group in targets, receptions, yards, and touchdowns in 2025, finishing third on the team across all categories, behind only Puka Nacua and Davante Adams. Veteran Tyler Higbee comes into the year healthy after missing the majority of the 2025 season with the ACL tear suffered in 2024, and the Rams spent second-round capital on Max Klare after selecting Terrance Ferguson in the second round of the 2025 NFL Draft. While that level of competition could make Parkinson's 2025 TE15 finish a near impossibility to repeat in most situations, the Rams' extensive use of three tight end personnel at least keeps the seventh-year veteran fantasy relevant in the final season of his current contract. While Ferguson and Klare are likely the future of the position in Los Angeles, Parkinson should still see enough usage to make him a viable dynasty depth piece with occasional streamability in 2026 and a chance to find a new role elsewhere in 2027. At 27 years old, he is easily acquirable as RotoBaller's dynasty TE32.
