Who Should I Start? Mo Alie-Cox or Tyreek Hill

The Athletic's James Boyd writes that Indianapolis Colts tight end Mo Alie-Cox is an easy target if the team wishes to create more salary cap space this offseason. He's entering the final year of a three-year, $17.6 million contract extension that he signed in 2022. Alie-Cox is due the last $5.9 million of that in 2024, but none of it is guaranteed. The 30-year-old is the team's best blocking tight end and has recorded at least three touchdowns in each of the last three seasons, but he's not getting any younger and is unlikely to develop into a true No. 1 pass-catching tight end at this point of his career. Both Will Mallory and third-year tight end Jelani Woods, who missed all of 2023 with hamstring issues, give the Colts more upside at the position amid their current youth movement. Alie-Cox hasn't been much more than a low-upside, touchdown-dependent TE2 option for fantasy managers in deep leagues.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill put together a fantastic season that saw him on track to break 2,000 receiving yards at one point. In their wild-card loss to his former team, Hill was the only player to find the end zone when he caught a 53-yard touchdown pass at the beginning of the second quarter. He finished the game with 62 yards and a score while catching five of his eight targets. In the subzero temperatures, the Dolphins' offense would go on to struggle for the rest of the game and didn't score a single point after that. After such a successful season and the way this offense has been built, Hill should be another top selection in next year's fantasy drafts. He could even remain a first-round selection despite entering his age-30 season.
