Greg Dulcich has Emerged as a Favorite Target for New Dolphins QB

Tuesday, June 23, 10:32 AM

Miami Dolphins tight end Greg Dulcich has emerged in spring offseason workouts as one of the primary targets for new quarterback Malik Willis, according to Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN. Willis is in the process of trying to build chemistry with an entirely new cast of skill players in Miami, but during team drills this offseason, "there was clear trust" in Dulcich, who was one of the best TEs in the NFL last year at making plays after the catch. After returning from Injured Reserve in Week 8, he finished the 2025 campaign averaging the second-most yards after catch per reception (7.6). The 26-year-old former third-rounder (80th overall) by the Denver Broncos in 2022 out of UCLA played in only 10 games (three starts) in 2025 in his first year in Miami, catching 26 of his 33 targets for 335 yards and one touchdown. Dulcich has struggled with the injury bug in his four years in the NFL, but if he can stay healthy in 2026, he will have a chance to be one of the most targeted offensive weapons for Willis in an offense that features an unproven group of receivers. Dulcich will be considered a breakout sleeper candidate in his fifth year in the league.

Michael Mayer News

Michael Mayer to See an Uptick in Production in New Offense?

Monday, July 6, 5:14 PM

Las Vegas Raiders tight end Brock Bowers should be the focal point of new head coach Klint Kubiak's offense in 2026, but Kubiak's deployment of two tight ends on the field at the same time could help Michael Mayer's production as the top TE backup, according to Sam Warren of The Athletic. Beyond Bowers and Mayer, Ian Thomas and Carter Runyan could battle for the TE3 job in training camp this summer. Mayer, who was taken in the second round (35th overall) in 2023 out of Notre Dame, caught a career-high 35 passes on 50 targets for 328 yards and only one touchdown in 13 games (12 starts) for the Raiders in 2025 in his third year in the league. He was on the TE streaming radar with Bowers missing some time with injuries last year, but in the end, Mayer's numbers left a lot to be desired. His ceiling will obviously be capped because of Bowers' presence, but he could threaten for even more production if Kubiak involves him more as a pass-catcher alongside Bowers. Mayer should go undrafted in standard 12-team leagues, but if Bowers misses more time with an injury in 2026, he'll be a priority waiver-wire pickup at the position.
