Who Should I Start? Greg Dulcich or Brenton Strange

Tuesday, August 26, 10:47 AM

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.

Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Brenton Strange was drawing waiver-wire consideration after catching all four of his targets for a team-high 59 yards in the Week 1 win over the Carolina Panthers. However, he took a step back in Sunday's 31-27 Week 2 loss on the road to the Cincinnati Bengals, catching three of five targets for just 17 yards. On the bright side, the 24-year-old was Jacksonville's clear TE1, playing 90 percent of the offensive snaps. Quarterback Trevor Lawrence leaned more on receivers Dyami Brown and Parker Washington in this one, but don't overlook the fact that Strange has nine targets through the first two weeks of the 2025 season. Strange will probably continue to have up-and-down weeks, but he's been on the field enough to be considered a borderline TE1/2 in fantasy as the Jags head into a Week 3 divisional matchup against the Houston Texans.
