JJ Zachariason identifies Chig Okonkwo as a featured sleeper with opportunity to be the number two target on the Washington Commanders at TE19 ADP. Okonkwo has posted three consecutive 50-plus reception seasons on poor Tennessee offenses (54, 52, 56 catches) with consistently low touchdown totals (1, 2, 2 TDs). Now paired with Jayden Daniels, the best quarterback of his career, Zachariason projects Okonkwo for 70 receptions this year, achievable as less than one additional reception per game from his 56-catch 2024 baseline. Zachariason notes Okonkwo's quasi-homecoming to Maryland (University of Maryland alum, Commanders play in Landover, Maryland—same county, 15-minute drive). Risk: Stefon Diggs signing would heavily diminish the number two target thesis. Zachariason describes the TE19 price as 'absolutely right' for a player with 70-catch upside and potential top-15 tight end finish.
