Tucker Kraft Worth Buying Low in Dynasty Leagues?

Monday, April 13, 7:50 PM

Green Bay Packers tight end Tucker Kraft (knee) is still an intriguing dynasty option as he works his way back from a torn ACL. Kraft ranked as the overall TE1 in PPR leagues last year before suffering the season-ending injury in Week 9. He had carved out a prominent role in the Packers' offense, emerging as Jordan Love's favorite target over an uninspiring group of wide receivers. We could see Kraft have an equally large workload in 2026, especially after the Packers traded away Dontayvion Wicks and watched Romeo Doubs depart in free agency. Health is the biggest concern for Kraft, and while it seems like he should be ready for the season opener, it's unclear if the effects of his recovery will have any impact on his mobility or production. We wouldn't be surprised if he picks up right where he left off, and even if he isn't the TE1 overall, he certainly has top-five value at the tight end position going forward. Given that Kraft has tremendous upside and is just 25 years old, he's a very appealing option in dynasty fantasy football leagues. The aforementioned ACL tear has dropped his price in dynasty trade talks, so managers might be able to buy low on Kraft this offseason.

Ja'Tavion Sanders News

Ja'Tavion Sanders Looks Good After Ankle Surgery

Tuesday, April 14, 9:56 AM

Carolina Panthers general manager Dan Morgan said he's optimistic about tight end Ja'Tavion Sanders (ankle) and said that he looks good after he had ankle surgery, according to Joe Person of The Athletic. Sanders has been running and cutting and looks good during his rehab. The 23-year-old had season-ending surgery in late December to fix a broken right fibula. Sanders has been recovering nicely, though, and he could be ready for organized team activities in May. In his second NFL season in 13 before his ankle injury, the former fourth-rounder out of the University of Texas in 2024 had 29 catches for 190 yards and only one touchdown on 34 targets over 13 games played (five starts). Sanders had 33 receptions (43 targets) for 342 yards and a score in 16 games in his rookie campaign in 2024. With Tommy Tremble set to be the team's top TE in 2026, Sanders can be ignored in most 12-team fantasy football leagues.
