TE13 price unjustified; never hit 500 yards and beaten by Giants' holdover TE.

Isaiah LikelyTE

26-year-old fourth-rounder (2022) who has never reached 500 yards in a season and is being drafted as TE13 despite unproven fantasy production; his previous team (Baltimore) opted for the declining Mark Andrews (39.6 yards per game in 2023, 24.8 last year) over him before John Harbaugh left town. Now in New York with Harbaugh, Likely is widely expected to be the TE1, but the Giants have a holdover tight end (Johnson, pick 4-107 in 2024 vs. Likely's 4-139 in 2022) who is roughly equivalent in draft stock and beat Likely in basically every offensive stat last year. Source is out at Likely's TE13 price.

Source transcript excerpt
Isaiah Likely...is a 26-year-old fourth-rounder who has never reached 500 yards in a season...the Ravens still extended him and let Likely hit free agency. Now in New York and still with Harbaugh, Likely is pretty widely expected to be the team's TE1 and is being drafted as the TE13 in fantasy leagues...I'm definitely out at that price.
