Tyler Higbee News
Sunday, August 2, 10:21 AM
Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee is heading into his 11th season with the only team he has ever played for, but there is not much reason to chase that familiarity in fantasy drafts. Higbee managed 25 catches for 281 yards and three touchdowns in 10 games last year, missing seven contests with hip and ankle injuries. The Rams still brought him back for an 11th season. Fantasy volume is another matter. Colby Parkinson led the team's tight ends with 43 receptions, Terrance Ferguson turned 11 catches into 231 yards, and Davis Allen remained part of the rotation. Los Angeles then used the 61st overall pick on Max Klare. The Rams can keep several of them involved after leading the NFL in 13 personnel usage last season, but that makes the weekly target split even harder to predict. Higbee is 33, has appeared in only 13 regular-season games over the past two years, and sits at TE44 in RotoBaller's July rankings. A few touchdown weeks are possible with Matthew Stafford still under center, but there is no dependable floor here. Higbee should be left undrafted in ordinary one-tight-end leagues.

Terrance Ferguson News
Saturday, August 1, 10:54 AM
Los Angeles Rams tight end Terrance Ferguson has been one of the team's offseason standouts, according to Albert Breer of Sports Illustrated. Breer wrote that Ferguson is showing he can line up across the formation and create after the catch, with the Rams believing the 2025 second-round pick could eventually develop into one of the league's top tight ends. Ferguson's rookie stat line was modest at 11 catches for 231 yards and three touchdowns in 14 games, but most of that production came after Los Angeles made three-tight-end sets a bigger part of the offense in Week 7. He recorded 10 receptions for 210 yards and all three scores from that point forward. Colby Parkinson remains at the front of a crowded tight end room, so consistent targets are not guaranteed. Ferguson is more interesting than his rookie totals suggest, but he remains a deeper redraft option until his role becomes clearer. Dynasty managers have more reason to be encouraged by the direction of his second offseason.
