Ask the Commish.Com 2024 Draft Kit
Dissly spent the first six seasons of his career in Seattle who released him last week. His role in the passing game will likely still be limited as it was with the Seahawks.
Dwelley started 17 games during his six seasons in San Francisco. He'll add depth to the tight end room for the Falcons.
Woerner will provide the Falcons with depth at tight end behind Kyle Pitts. The 26-year-old saw limited targets with the 49ers, tallying just 32 receiving yards on three receptions last season.
Parkinson has spent the first four seasons of his career in Seattle where he has played as a rotational TE. He will make $22.5 million with $15.5 million guaranteed in L.A.; he had 57 catches for 618 yards and four touchdowns as a Seahawk.
Everett landed with the Bears this offseason, reuniting with playcaller Shane Waldron from his days with Seattle. He'll compete for playing time this preseason, but with veteran TE Cole Kmet likely to lead the position in targets, and with Chicago's receiving corps rather deep, Everett probably won't get much of a chance to put up good numbers. Keep him off Fantasy rosters.
Gesicki lands with the Bengals after one season with the Patriots. He figures to take over the primary receiving role for Joe Burrow at the tight end position with Drew Sample remaining in a blocking role.
Hooper is set to earn $4.25M on his one-year deal. The 29-year-old veteran tallied 234 receiving yards on 25 receptions in 17 games with Las Vegas last season. Hooper will provide a security blanket for a potential rookie quarterback.
Tonyan caught 11 passes behind Cole Kmet with the Bears last season after spending the first five seasons of his career with the Packers. He figures to backup T.J. Hockenson with Minnesota.
Jim Harbaugh is already making his presence felt in L.A., bringing in a pair of tight ends and pairing Hurst with TE Will Dissly. With Gerald Everett in Chicago, Hurst will compete with TE Donald Parham Jr. and Dissly for targets, with Hurst having the most proven production (571-yard season in 2020).
Brown earns a base of $3.2 million and up to $3.9 million. He should hold a primary blocking role for Seattle with the departures of Colby Parkinson and Will Dissly. Noah Fant will still be the primary receiving tight end for the Seahawks.
Smith surprised as an early-season waiver wire add in almost all Fantasy leagues by often outscoring Kyle Pitts during his 2023 season with the Falcons. He now joins one of the most explosive offenses in the NFL with one of the best offensive play designers in Mike McDaniel. There will be a role for Smith and opportunities for him, but consistency will remain an issue and that makes him a better bet in best ball Fantasy formats. In redraft, Smith is likely to go undrafted but don't be surprised if he once again pops up as an early-season waiver wire add.
Ertz will reunite with OC Kliff Kingsbury from their days in Arizona. He figures to split snaps with Cole Turner to some extent after the Commanders released Logan Thomas.
