Elite TE upside in Koviak offense, but prefer RBs in round two; loop back late round two.
Fantasy Points' Ryan Heath likes Bowers as a player and in the Clint Koviak Raiders offense, noting he averaged north of 16 fantasy points per game without his knee brace last year despite offensive chaos (injuries, Chip Kelly firing in November), giving him round-two pick-worthy upside. However, Heath's line in the sand is not clicking Bowers in round two ahead of running backs like Chase Brown, Derrick Henry, and Ken Walker that he thinks will outscore him. Heath advocates for a specific draft strategy: target one of the top-four running backs (Gibbs, Robinson, Taylor, or McCaffrey) in round one, then loop back to late round two to acquire Bowers. This strategy is more realistic in home leagues than higher-stakes drafts due to ADP variance. Heath is open to Bowers in mid-to-late round two after those backs are off the board, as tight ends have higher hit rates in later rounds than other positions and running backs/wide receivers provide more value of replacement.

View Brock Bowers 2026 fantasy football value pagePlayer profile with fantasy value, ADP, projections, news, and source-backed STACKED insightsI like Bowers as a player. I am like in a vacuum. I like the case for him in this Clint Koviaak offense... he has the upside that to be worthy of a round two pick. I'm just not selecting him over running backs that I think are going to outscore him... I haven't thrown around this super Bowers draft strategy, man, where ideally we get one of these again top four, I would say, running backs, our Gibbs, our Bejon, our JT or our CMC, and then we loop back around to the later stages of round two to get Brock Bowers... without the brace last year, he still averaged north of 16 fantasy points per game.
