Dallas Goedert has long been heralded as one of the more physically talented tight ends in the league and while he's always been a viable fantasy starter, he's also never really produced difference-making results despite playing at the thinnest position in fantasy football.
Goedert caught a career-high 59 passes in 2023, but managed to turn them into just 592 yards and three touchdowns - the lowest yards-per-reception mark of his six-year NFL career. Not only that, but Goedert has now missed multiple games in four straight seasons, thus adding risk to his already low-upside profile.
The difference between this season and previous seasons, however, is that Goedert's ADP is now hovering around low-end TE1 or high-end TE2 range, whereas he had previously been going as a borderline top-five player at the position. Those who wait on tight end won't likely be excited to land Goedert, but he's a reliable player who should produce decent-enough numbers most weeks as long as he stays on the field. Unfortunately, it seems as though the Eagles just don't prioritize getting him the ball in the end zone often enough for him to have much upside to become a true difference-maker at the position.

Dallas Goedert likely out for multiple weeks
Knee injury

FFToday's Take: Goedert has long been a very good tight end, but he hasn't come close to playing a full season in four of the last five seasons. Although the Eagles have become about as run-heavy as any team in the league, Goedert's absence should pave the way for DeVonta Smith to return to relevance after a down stretch for him (prior to his hamstring injury). Grant Calcaterra should be expected to take over for Goedert again, but he is unlikely to be worth starting in most fantasy leagues.

Hamstring injury

FFToday's Take: The Eagles will be down one of their playmakers on offense as Smith missed practice all week with a hamstring injury. With Smith out, expect to see more of Jahan Dotson and Johnny Wilson but neither are recommended fantasy plays. Dallas Goedert becomes a more intriguing tight end play.
