Jake Ferguson News
Thursday, June 11, 9:00 AM
Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson took on a high-volume role in his team's offense in 2026, finishing the year with 82 catches for 600 yards and eight touchdowns on 102 targets across 17 games. However, a significant chunk of Ferguson's production came in the four games where star Cowboys wideout CeeDee Lamb was either sidelined or forced to exit early due to injury. Across the 13 games where Ferguson shared the field with Lamb, he averaged 5.3 targets and four receptions per game. The 27-year-old needs a high volume of targets to be productive for fantasy managers, as he's averaged under six yards per target in each of the last two seasons. Ferguson's 2026 spike in red zone production may not be sustainable either, as he failed to record a single touchdown grab across 14 games in 2024. With the Cowboys' star wide receiver duo of Lamb and George Pickens likely to demand a significant chunk of the team's targets in 2026, dynasty managers may want to explore selling high on Ferguson.

Gunnar Helm News
Sunday, June 14, 11:59 AM
A fourth-round pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, Tennessee Titans tight end Gunnar Helm recorded 44 receptions for 357 yards and two touchdowns on 55 targets across 16 games as a rookie. Given where he was drafted and the underwhelming offensive environment around him in Tennessee, Helm's production was an encouraging sign for dynasty managers. He also spent the entire season splitting playing time with fellow Titans tight end Chig Okonkwo, who signed with the Washington Commanders in free agency earlier this spring. While Tennessee backfilled its tight end room by signing veterans Daniel Bellinger and Kylen Granson, Helm now profiles as his team's clear TE1. He should also be playing in a more productive Titans offense in quarterback Cam Ward's second NFL season and the team's first under the command of new play-caller Brian Daboll. In dynasty formats, Helm profiles as a clear buy-low candidate ahead of what could be a breakout year.
