McBride at 2-3 turn needs 16 PPR/game; Cardinals' new coach and run game make that unlikely.
Trey McBrideTE
Dave Richard argues that drafting McBride at the 2-3 turn requires him to average at least 16 PPR fantasy points per game to justify the ADP; historically, only 11 tight ends have averaged 16+ PPR points per game over the last 10 seasons, and all were on teams that threw for 250+ yards and 28+ touchdowns per game. The Cardinals' new head coach and improved run game make it unlikely they'll maintain the pass volume needed for McBride to hit that threshold, despite his prior-year performance.

If you draft McBride or Bowers at the two, three turn, how many fantasy points do you think they need to score to justify that average? How many do they need to average? At least 16... Every single team that those tight ends were on, those 11 tight ends, every single team that they were on through for at least 251 yards per game... The difference is, is there's a new head coach now and a much, much, much, much improved run game, you know? So I would say, no, I don't see that happening.
