McBride has more fantasy points over last 3 years than Mark Andrews had in any 3-year period; nearly as good as Gronk's peak (except Gronk's all-time best season). Drafted in third round despite 2024-2025 production; community notes he's been nearly as bankable as Kelce historically. One comment: 'Drafting McBride this year never felt so good'; another: 'Well I think ill go with McBride' (vs. Johnson).
