Every game, every stat category, and what the board says. 3.78 points per game in 2025, an ADP of 169.9, usage worth 4.3.

| Goes around | Round 15, pick 2 in a 12-team draft |
| Positional rank | TE33 |
Our board has him at 55 points, 3.6 per game — 22.2 catches, 232 yards, 1.6 TDs. That is TE5, 297 overall.
The range runs from a floor of 2.1 points per game to a ceiling of 6.9, with the median at 3.6. Boom rate 93%, bust rate 42%. The spread is the actual bet, not the middle number.
He goes at 169.9 on consensus and our board has him 297. We rank him 127.1 picks worse than the room drafts him. At that distance it is a fade: we do not want him anywhere near his ADP.
Green Bay Packers returns 5 of 6 continuity slots, replacing wr1. Jordan Love at quarterback, Matt LaFleur as head coach, Adam Stenavich calling it. The offense projects to 30.2 pass attempts a game at high confidence and 28.2 rushes.
In: Skyy Moore (wr6), Will Sheppard (wr7), MarShawn Lloyd (rb3), Pierre Strong Jr. (rb4). Out: Romeo Doubs (wr1), Emmanuel Wilson (rb2).
His own projected target share for 2026 is 8.3%, with a bear case of 7.5% and a bull case of 9.5% and a full range of 6.5% to 10.1%. That comes from 25 historical comparables, not from a depth chart.
The projected target split across the offense:
| Christian Watson | 17.4% |
| Jayden Reed | 17% |
| Matthew Golden | 13.9% |
| Tucker Kraft | 13.1% |
| Josh Jacobs | 9.7% |
| Luke Musgrave ← | 8.3% |
Key additions: Drafted Jager Burton C in the 5th round, extended Jayden Reed on 3 year deal.
Key departures: Rasheed Walker starting O lineman left to Panthers. RB Emmanuel Wilson left, opening up backup and 3rd down back role for another RB to fill the gap. Romeo Doubs to New England Patriots, Wicks to Eagles. Massive opportunity for Watson, Golden, and Reed. We will have to see who plays the most on 2 WR sets.
Notes: Key departures: Romeo Doubs to New England Patriots, Wicks to Eagles. Massive opportunity for Watson, Golden, and Reed. We will have to see who plays the most on 2 WR sets. Reed landed 3 year 50m extension with packers. Golden could be primed for a breakout. Kraft should be recovered from torn ACL early in the season & Musgrave will fill in if he misses time but no true upside to him. Savion Williams will compete for WR4 but it is unlikely he holds any true value. Jordan Love needs to stay healthy but could be primed for a great 2026 season. Josh Jacobs is showing signs for concern with efficiency & managers need to think about him, however, packers have not brought in any competition so in the meantime he should be ok. The departure of Emmanuel Wilson to Seattle should not be underlooked. He was a highly productive back up RB & could open the door for a healthy Josh Jacobs to return to his peak form briefly. AND another RB will assume a very potentially productive handcuff opportunity.
How the volume number was reached: Same QB Jordan Love returning — anchor to 2025 actuals (28.8 att/g); Regressed 30% toward league mean 33.5, floored at 30 → 30.2 att/g.
25 historical comps for TEs age ~24, prior share 10.0%, same team, OC continuity. Distribution: median 8.1%, p25-p75 [6.2%, 10.0%], tails [4.4%, 11.2%]. Closest comps: Grant Calcaterra 2024→2025 (PHI: 9.6%→6.2%); Colby Parkinson 2022→2023 (SEA: 8.4%→7.8%); Kylen Granson 2023→2024 (IND: 9.9%→7.5%). Adjustment: -5% from td_luck_breakout (TD regression risk)
self-anchored 45% to own 10.0% role (2yr), 55% to comp median 8.1%
The named comps are the closest historical matches and the arrow is what their share actually did the following season. That is the working, not a summary of it — if you disagree with the projection, this is the part to argue with.
Offensive environment: GB rates 24.6 against a league average of 23, 1.6 points above it on opponent-adjusted least squares (multi-capture merge).
Opponent-adjusted pass defense faced, against 2025 ratings. Positive is an easier slate.
| Full season | -1.7 · harder |
| Weeks 1–6 | +5 · easier |
| Weeks 12–17 | -4.9 · harder |
| Fantasy playoffs (15–17) | +1.1 · neutral |
Read this narrowly. Our own testing found that season-long strength of schedule does not survive as a draft input — defensive quality is among the least stable team properties year to year, and a preseason slate is built on last year's identities. The playoff-weeks column is the only one we would let break a tie, and even then it is a tiebreaker rather than a reason. The finding.
From the absence record rather than a depth chart — who actually gained when he was out.
| Season | Games missed | Main beneficiary | Their PPR gain |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2023 | 2 | Tucker Kraft | +8.5 |
Everything in this section is about his dynasty trade value — what he is worth as a long-term asset in the trade market. It is not a forecast of his 2026 fantasy scoring. A player can be a fine redraft pick while his dynasty value falls, and the reverse. The redraft read is above; this is a different question with a different answer.
His dynasty value has moved +11.1% over the last twelve months. The market cycle classifies him as stable.
For context on how long this lasts at the position: the average career at his position produces 1.3 elite seasons and 2.3 startable seasons.
Matched on production profile — blended production + pedigree. The last column is how that player’s dynasty value moved the following year — a market outcome, not a scoring one.
| Player | Season | Their PPG | Similarity | Next year |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Luke Schoonmaker | 2024 | 4.8 | 83% | -22.6% |
| Irv Smith | 2023 | 3.4 | 68% | -41.3% |
| Josh Oliver | 2023 | 4.1 | 64% | +46.2% |
| David Njoku | 2020 | 4.8 | 64% | +12.4% |
| Luke Schoonmaker | 2023 | 2.2 | 63% | 0% |
Of the 5 with a following season on record, 2 gained value, 2 lost it and 1 held roughly flat.
