Gunnar Helm Listed Ahead of Josh Whyle on Titans Depth Chart

Thursday, August 7, 9:20 AM

Tennessee Titans tight end Gunnar Helm was listed as the team's second tight end on the first unofficial depth chart, behind only Chig Okonkwo and ahead of Josh Whyle, who was the team's second tight end last year. The Titans drafted Helm out of Texas with the No. 120 pick in the fourth round of the NFL Draft after he logged 60 catches for 786 yards and seven touchdowns in Texas's quick passing game. Helm had a bad combine, potentially due to injury, but he has earned playing time with a strong training camp and could become a favorite target for rookie quarterback Cam Ward. Helm and the Titans start preseason on Saturday in Tampa Bay, and it will be important to see exactly how the tight end work is divided going into Week 1 against the Broncos.

Mason Taylor News

Mason Taylor Falls a Rung Down the Depth Chart

Saturday, April 25, 7:27 AM

New York Jets tight end Mason Taylor saw his fantasy value take a hit on Thursday night. The Jets used one of their three first-round picks on Oregon tight end Kenyon Sadiq, an athletic pass-catcher who was regarded as the top draft prospect at his position. Sadiq had 51 catches, 560 yards, and eight touchdowns just last year at Oregon, and he should slot in as the Jets' No. 1 tight end immediately. That pushes Taylor down to No. 2, just 12 months after the Jets spent a second-round pick on him. It's tough news for dynasty managers, as it had seemed like Taylor was trending up following his 44 catches, 369 yards, and one touchdown as a rookie last year. Instead, the 21-year-old LSU product will fall to second on the depth chart, taking him off the fantasy radar in most leagues as long as Sadiq is healthy.
