Gadsden is an avoid; locked in committee with Kolar and Njoku additions.

Derek Brown is avoiding Oronde Gadsden in 2026 drafts. While Gadsden posted five TE1 weekly finishes in Weeks 6-18 last season, he finished as TE17 in fantasy points per game overall. During that Weeks 6-18 sample among 50 qualifying tight ends, he ranked 36th in target per route run rate, 15th in yards per route run, 22nd in first-read share, and 29th in first downs per route run. Brown flags concerning red flags including route share dropping below 70% after Week 15, and the Chargers' offseason additions of Charlie Kolar and David Njoku, which lock Gadsden into a tight end committee.
