Elite tackle avoidance but 6.0 aDOT below tier-one threshold
Harold FanninCLE
Harold Fanning led all tight ends in tackles avoided last season and has Tom Monk as his new offensive coordinator (who developed Ravens tight ends in Baltimore), but his 6.0 average target depth is well below the 6.5-yard threshold that Zachariason's 10-year study shows is necessary for tier-one tight end upside. Despite elite tackle-avoidance metrics and a favorable coaching situation, Fanning ranks in the tight end 9-16 tier, not tier one, and should not be assumed to suddenly be used more downfield without evidence of a usage shift.

Harold Fan at six yards. Only 2019 George KD at 6.1 ADOT actually had an average target depth under 6.5 yards. Could Leaporta, could Fannon, could our guy Tucker Craft all of a sudden be used more downfield this year? Yeah, it's possible. But man, based on what we saw last year, we should not be assuming it.
