Dynasty Superflex TE Rankings 2025 (Tight End)

Updated on 7:06pm UTC 5/14/25

Off-the-cuff opinions from random guys on the internet are not the best foundation for creating Superflex Rankings. You wouldn’t buy a house with a cracked or leaking basement, would you? No! The foundation for anything is critical.

At Draft Sharks, our Dynasty Rankings are based on data—a lot of it. We start with a player's baseline, a weighted average of this year’s projection, and their last two seasons. Then we use 3-year, 5-year, and 10-year fantasy forecasted output. This isn't guesswork. Our process has been built using machine learning for all NFL data since 1999. We determine this output using scientifically-sound performance aging curves and retirement rates. And these numbers are specific to both positional groups and archetypes of players. These are the smartest fantasy football projections on the market. Period.

3D values+ then apply a weighted average of those 1-,3-,5- and 10-year projections and a cross-positional algorithm based on your exact league setup and scoring. The results are an unparalleled single (true) value you can use universally on the site. That means you can use these values for ranking in the preseason, regular season, and trade valuations.

Ready to go for the gold? In the Draft War Room you can adjust the weighting even heavier toward year-one projection in "Win Now" mode.

Player
1Brock Bowers TE LVR1.081022.4160.7449738134331
Bowers lived up to the hype, setting the all-time rookie receptions record with 110, along with the rookie TE receiving yards record with 1,194. Doing all of that on one of the worst offenses in the NFL was tremendously impressive. Bowers projects as a high-end TE1 for the foreseeable future.
2Trey McBride TE ARI2.071125.5152407653113726
McBride was the PPR TE3 for the 2024 season, and this was despite not scoring a receiving TD until Week 17. His 147 targets and 111 catches were enough to carry him in PPR leagues, and there should be some positive TD regression coming. McBride’s talent and Kyler Murray’s willingness to lock onto him should keep McBride as a top dynasty TE going forward.
3Sam LaPorta TE DET4.05524.4121.933753893720
After a rocky start to the 2024 season, LaPorta ended the season with five straight PPR TE1 performances. The Lions’ high-octane offense means that LaPorta will always be a threat to score. He is locked in as a top dynasty TE moving forward.
4Colston Loveland TE CHI7.04721.181.4318531106119
Loveland had an injury-filled 2024, dealing with a shoulder and another undisclosed injury. With Michigan’s offensive issues, Loveland was still their leading receiver with 56 catches for 582 yards and five TDs. His awareness and quick feet make him dangerous against zone coverage, reminiscent of Travis Kelce. We like Loveland’s landing spot alongside QB Caleb Williams and HC Ben Johnson. Note that the Bears can move on from Cole Kmet’s contract... Show More »
5Tyler Warren TE IND6.071423.089.429048994117
In 2024, Warren was the Nittany Lions’ leading receiver with 104 catches for 1,233 yards and 8 TDs. He has a massive 6’6, 261-pound frame with the typical Penn State top-tier athleticism. Add in monster in-line blocking, and Warren projects as an impact rookie for the Colts. QB play might cap his short-term ceiling, though. Indy will roll into the season with Anthony Richardson and Daniel Jones.
6George Kittle TE SF7.07931.6145.830046269116
Kittle was the top PPR TE in 2024 in points per game. At 32 (in October), he should have at least a couple of years left at TE1-level production.
7Mark Andrews TE BAL8.051429.7115.628144479214
Andrews bounced back from his early-season woes to be the PPR TE6 overall and TE7 in points per game. He also ended the season with five straight TE1 games. With Lamar Jackson locked in as the QB going forward, Andrews retains a TE1 outlook.
8Dalton Kincaid TE BUF8.041225.698.826642774412
Kincaid had a disappointing 2024, ending up as the TE21 in points per game. Dealing with injuries and an uneven offensive passing game didn’t help his numbers. On the bright side, he drew 75 targets in only 13 games, so Josh Allen has not given up on the young TE. Buffalo remains without a clear WR1, helping raise Kincaid’s bounce-back appeal in 2025.
9David Njoku TE CLE9.071028.9109.126841466212
Njoku battled injuries throughout the season but was no stranger to spike weeks when he played. He ended as the TE4 in PPR points per game. He had a TE1 performance in seven of the 11 games he played. The Browns' offense is concerning, but Njoku will be a value if his current trend continues.
10T.J. Hockenson TE MIN6.11627.9106.227342471412
Hockenson returned from his torn ACL and MCL and ended the season as the TE14 in points per game. He had a few spike weeks but looked short of 100% for most of the season. 2025 brings bounce-back potential – if QB J.J. McCarthy proves capable.
11Elijah Arroyo TE SEA15.021022.159.223742984811
Arroyo joined an open situation in Seattle, which needs playmakers after trading D.K. Metcalf and releasing Tyler Lockett. His athleticism should make him a target hog for the Seahawks and new QB Sam Darnold. Arroyo has a bright long-term outlook with weekly TE1 upside.
12Mason Taylor TE NYJ13.111221.07023442388411
Taylor should slide into the starting role for the Jets immediately, potentially as the number two option after Garrett Wilson. His soft hands and red zone ability give Taylor a solid floor alongside QB Justin Fields.
13Tucker Kraft TE GB10.011024.5104.423738471410
With Luke Musgrave battling injuries most of the season, Kraft established himself as a true receiving threat for the Packers. He ended as the TE13 in PPR points per game and had seven TE1 performances. His ceiling may be capped, but Kraft has emerged as a consistent TE presence.
14Kyle Pitts TE ATL9.041224.6852363886989
Another year of disappointment with Pitts. He ended as the TE18 in PPR points per game, only posting three TE1 performances all season. The inconsistency, even with a new offense and QB, was maddening. Perhaps QB Michael Penix provides a boost, but likely, Pitts isn't long for Atlanta. 2025 is a contract year.
15Terrance Ferguson TE LAR15.10622.251.72244118009
Ferguson rose up draft boards late due to his athleticism and final year of film. He fits the Rams as a potential slot option who can run the Stick route. He has a path to starting immediately, depending on the health of Tyler Higbee. He could be a solid TE2 over the long term as the likely starter for the Rams.
16Isaiah Likely TE BAL11.041425.189.92413826648
After a TE1 overall finish in Week 1, Likely only had two more top-ten PPR performances on the season. He finished as the TE20 in points per game and did not see enough targets to be reliable. He will be a free agent after the 2025 season, so there could be hope for him as a lead TE elsewhere down the line.
17Harold Fannin Jr. TE CLE16.071020.843.22194038318
With David Njoku only having one year left on his deal, Fannin will likely be developed to become the starting TE for the Browns in a year. He broke every college football TE record and has a natural feel for catching the ball. As a long-term investment, he could pay dividends.
18Jonnu Smith TE MIA11.05629.8115.32363675618
Smith broke out in a big way for the Dolphins, ending as the PPR TE5 in 2024. Being a big slot weapon certainly helped Smith’s numbers. He remains under contract through 2025 and has a shot to repeat those numbers. He is approaching his age-30 season, however, so relying on Smith long-term isn't wise.
19Dallas Goedert TE PHI13.10530.497.92253566057
Goedert has crossed the age 30 mark and dealt with both a hamstring and knee injury in 2024. He was TE9 in PPR points per game, but the injuries and age may have started catching up to him. He is currently signed through the 2025 season.
20Oronde Gadsden II TE LAC26.10521.929.22083827446
The son of the former Miami Dolphins’ WR, Gadsden II is the ultimate tweener prospect. He is too big to be a WR, but not quite built enough to be an in-line TE. Gadsden landed in a promising spot without a long-term TE -- and alongside Justin Herbert.
