Goedert could be a particularly big factor in Week 1 for the Eagles against Washington. The Eagles' passing game matches up brilliantly on all fronts against a bad Commanders defense. Projected No. 2 wide receiver Makai Lemon missed a good amount of the preseason with a hamstring issue, and his depth-chart listing as the team's primary punt returner hints he might have a limited role in the offense initially, shifting more of the focus to the tight end. Between Goedert (Week 16) and Grant Calcaterra (Week 18), Eagles starting tight ends totaled 22.3 fantasy points in their two 2025 meetings with the Commanders, who didn't improve their secondary substantially during the offseason.PositiveValueAug 31, 2026

Goedert caught 11 of the Eagles' 26 TD throws in 2025, but he is 31 years old and caught only 12 touchdowns during the prior four seasons combined, some of which was lost to injuries. Goedert isn't durable, and he likely isn't coming close to double-digit TDs again.PositiveProjectionJul 31, 2026
Goedert was a reliable starter in 2025; the source lists him among quality-to-serviceable tight end options available in Rounds 9-12, making him a value play relative to his reliability.PositiveValueJul 29, 2026
Ferguson scored 11.1 fantasy PPG last season and gives real upside when Dallas moves into scoring position. Ferguson had 23 red zone targets (10 in end zone) and finished with 8 TDs, catching 6 on throws inside the 10-yard line. Zachariason says "If you wait on drafting your tight end (like I do), Ferguson will be available later. There's good value here."NegativeValueNo date

Goedert exploded for a career-high 11 TDs, nine double-digit fantasy weeks, and 12.3 FPTS/game over 15 games in 2025, but his production is heavily dependent on unsustainable TD rate. Goedert scored on 18.3% of his catches in 2025 versus a 6.9% TD rate over the rest of his career; applying his career 6.9% rate to 2025 would have yielded 4.1 TDs instead of 11, reducing weekly output by 2.76 points and sliding him from TE5 to TE18 in FPTS/game. Additionally, Goedert registered a career-low 9.9 yards per catch (TE26). While A.J. Brown's departure opened 120+ targets, it also reduces space for Goedert to create after the catch and generate large gains downfield. With rookies Makai Lemon and Eli Stowers folding into the offense, Goedert's staying power is expected to wane. The source views him as a fine stream to start the fall but not a TE1 fantasy producer his current rank promises.
