Ian Hartitz ranks Tyler Warren as the TE4 for Week 1 and advises starting him in all league formats. Hartitz notes Warren could see up to 12 targets, citing his status as one of the few rookie tight ends to post top-12 PPR numbers in the last decade. Hartitz remains confident in Warren despite concerns about the Ravens' defense and potential Colts' offensive struggles throwing downfield.NegativeValueAug 21, 2026

Drew Davenport identifies Tyler Warren as the floor for acceptable tight end talent in 10-team auction leagues, stating he prefers not to draft anyone ranked below him and aims to secure one of the top four or five options at the position.PositiveBreakoutAug 3, 2026
Ian Hartitz selected Tyler Warren for his tight end premium value, comparing his potential usage to a 'Trey McBride 2025 light' scenario with a ceiling of 140 targets; Hartitz notes the team needs him to be very good for the roster to smash.NegativeProjectionJul 24, 2026
Tyler Warren's target projection could be affected by Alec Pierce's health status. If Pierce is unavailable, Warren could see more target volume; if the Colts add an outside receiver like Keenan Allen, his upside would be dampened.NegativeUsageNo date
Ian Hartitz identifies Tyler Warren as an efficient underneath target who operates effectively near the line of scrimmage, though he notes Warren does not stretch the field, which may allow defenses to focus more on stopping the run.PositiveUsageNo date
Tyler Warren is expected to be one of the primary volume targets in the Colts offense alongside Jonathan Taylor and Josh Downs. Ian Hartitz sees reason to be excited about Warren's fantasy prospects from a volume concentration perspective.PositiveProjectionNo date
JJ Zachariason ranks Tyler Warren as tight end four, placing him below Brock Bowers (TE1), Coulson Loveland (TE2), and Trey McBride (TE3). Tyler Warren is one of just six rookie tight ends to post top-12 PPR points-per-game numbers over the past decade, joining Brock Bowers, Harold Fannon, Sam Laaporta, Kyle Pitts, and Evan Engram. Zachariason projects Tyler Warren as one of only five tight ends projected to lead his team in targets, supported by his underneath role that suits a potentially hobbled Daniel Jones with reduced arm strength post-Achilles injury.PositiveBreakoutNo date
Tyler Warren is positioned as a potential breakout tight end for the Colts, described as "Brock Bowers light." As a rookie, he led the team in targets despite Michael Pitman's 111 targets, and with Pitman gone, Warren is expected to see even more volume. Already ranked inside the top five at tight end; positioned as a potential goal-line rushing touchdown beneficiary if he becomes his team's primary red-zone option, which could unlock significant upside. Matt Harmon breaks his usual tight end strategy (elite guys or wait late) to draft Warren in the fifth round.NegativeProjectionNo date
Ryan Heath views Tyler Warren as part of the consensus top-three tight ends but expresses uncertainty about his trajectory. Warren's rookie season stats were comparable to Brock Bowers' rookie year, and he had a hotter start than Colson Loveland despite being two years older with five years at Penn State as a backup. His early-season success came off play-action and RPO when the Colts offense was leading the league in passing yards per game and top-five in red zone visits, though Heath views him more as a beneficiary of that system than a driver. However, Heath has concerns about Warren's durability given the Colts' quarterback situation—Daniel Jones is coming off a right Achilles tear and may not be at 100% in week one, which Heath frames as a concern for Warren's fantasy outlook, though less severe than for Jonathan Taylor.PositiveRoleNo date
Ian Hartitz identifies Tyler Warren as the Colts' de facto number one receiver, positioned similarly to Brock Bowers. Warren led the team in targets as a rookie last year and is poised to see increased volume this year with Michael Pittman's 111 targets removed from the offense. Daniel Jones' injury recovery may limit his rushing, forcing quicker passes that favor Warren's skill set; Warren can be schemed up in multiple ways and used out of the backfield, a role he performed in college. Hartitz breaks his typical tight end strategy to draft Warren in the fifth round.
