Tyler Warren was a huge underperformer at tight end, and the analyst is having difficulty figuring out how to approach him this season.PositiveProjectionNo date
Tyler Warren is projected to go higher than 46.5 receiving yards. The matchup against the Commanders is favorable, as they allow high tight end production and play zone defense at a high rate, where Warren shows significantly higher yards per route run compared to man coverage. He is expected to have plenty of underneath opportunities and only needs one short target turned into a long gain to hit the projection.PositiveUsageNo date
Tyler Warren is a recommended start for Week 3; while he lacks a downfield role, he is expected to be involved in the red zone and utilized on screen plays and quick passes.PositiveRoleNo date
Fine to draft at pick 112 in this format; tight end option when quarterback is devalued in 3WR leagues.NegativeRoleNo date
Warren is a tier-two tight end with a wide range of outcomes due to offensive unknowns. His game is built on play-action, bootlegs, and screen passes—he wins when the offense is clicking and the run game (Jonathan Taylor) is dominant, which allows safeties and linebackers to bite on play-action. Unlike tier-one tight ends, Warren cannot win consistently without scheme support. His ceiling is high when the Colts' offense peaks (as it did last season when they were the number-one team in power rankings and dominated in the first half before riding Taylor in the second half), but if the offense underperforms, his production will suffer. Warren could emerge as the Colts' number-one target if Josh Downs does not play on the outside and mediocre wide receivers are relegated to 11 personnel; upside is contingent on Alec Pierce's health recovery from foot surgery and target-share command. The source prefers Loveland over Warren because Warren lacks tier-one ceiling and comes at a relatively decent draft cost, making Loveland the better value.PositiveProjectionNo date
If Alec Pierce's timeline is pushed back and Warren gets 7-8-9 targets per game, that represents significant fantasy value despite his round three selection.PositiveValueNo date
Tyler Warren should be viewed as a valuable tight end pick alongside Bowers and Leland, but not as a must-draft player in round three.PositiveRoleNo date
With Alec Pierce's foot surgery creating a 4-6 month recovery timeline, Tyler Warren could potentially be the Steelers' wide receiver one if Pierce isn't cleared by training camp.
