Everyone has a draft-day strategy for positional value in fantasy football. And if you're like me, that means waiting until the later rounds to pick a tight end. Go ahead and grab more depth for the WR3/flex spot in the lineup. Or add another running back with receiving traits and PPR upside. You can secure that quarterback with dual-threat ability, too. Continue to build up that roster, because there's still solid tight end value as we get into the later rounds of the draft.
Below are five tight ends you can target if you wait at the position, along with their 2022 projections from ESPN's Mike Clay. And we'll start with one of my favorites.
Dallas Goedert, Philadelphia Eagles
Current ADP: TE8
Clay's projection: 82 targets, 58 receptions, 689 yards, 4 TDs
