Who Should I Start? Evan Engram or Dallas Goedert

Denver Broncos tight end Evan Engram lauded his new quarterback, Bo Nix, last week in an interview with DNVR's Bennie Fowler. "He has everything that it takes to be great in this league," said Engram. The 30-year-old went on to praise Nix's dual-threat ability and noted that the team should continue to put talent around such a weapon. The Georgia native was fantastic in 2023 with the Jacksonville Jaguars, churning out an impressive 114 receptions. However, after being limited to nine games during an injury-plagued 2024, the team released him. Engram has an excellent chance to rebound with the Broncos in 2025 -- particularly as the joker in a Sean Payton offense bereft of weapons outside wideout Courtland Sutton. With Denver set to spend an early pick on running back in the draft later this month, the veteran tight end should provide solid TE1 numbers this season, barring health.

The Philadelphia Eagles and tight end Dallas Goedert are finalizing a reworked deal, according to Jeff McLane of The Philadelphia Enquirer. Goedert is entering his final season under contract, and the Eagles were said to be fielding trade offers during the draft. The veteran tight end was aware of the trade chatter, and now, he's reportedly taking a pay cut to stay with the Eagles for several years as they look to defend their Super Bowl title. Injuries limited Goedert to a career-low 10 games last season, and as a result, his production dwindled. He finished the year with just 42 catches for 496 yards and two touchdowns. Although he's behind Saquon Barkley, A.J. Brown, and DeVonta Smith in the Eagles' offensive pecking order, he should be a top-12 fantasy tight end if he can stay healthy. At the very least, Philadelphia's willingness to sign him to a reworked deal indicates that they want him to remain a central point of their offense for several years to come.
