Who Should I Start? Ross Dwelley or Terrance Ferguson

Friday, May 2, 4:17 PM

The San Francisco 49ers have agreed to a one-year contract with former Atlanta Falcons tight end Ross Dwelley. ESPN's Adam Schefter reported the news, but did not disclose the monetary details. The 30-year-old spent his first seven campaigns in the league with San Francisco and will return after a one-year stint with the Falcons. Dwelley appeared in all 17 games last season, but he played only 105 snaps (9.19%) -- snagging his only target for a gain of five yards. He did most of his damage -- snap-wise -- on special teams, but was still only on the field roughly a third of the time (37.22% of snaps). It's possible the 49ers brought him on due to his familiarity with their system, but he doesn't project to make an impact in the receiving column. He'll serve as a depth piece for the organization.

Los Angeles Rams tight end Terrance Ferguson continues to gradually handle an increased workload. The rookie has 10 targets over his last three games, handling at least 30 percent of the offensive snaps in each of those contests. He has primarily operated as a big-play threat, catching four passes for 117 yards during that span (29.3 yards per catch). While Tyler Higbee has remained Los Angeles' most-utilized tight end, Ferguson is not far behind. He appears to be the Rams' tight end of the future, and his receiving skills are among the best in this year's class of rookie tight ends. He's not startable in Week 11 against the Seattle Seahawks, but he should be stashed in all dynasty leagues.
