Latest takes
“In 2025, Fannin finished fifth among tight ends in targets (107), trailing only Trey McBride, Kyle Pitts, Tyler Warren and Travis Kelce . He also finished eighth among tight ends in receptions (72) and touchdowns (six).”
Kurt Blakeway· Aug 25“The chemistry between Travis Kelce and Patrick Mahomes is second to none. 10.”
Kurt Blakeway· Aug 23“Even though Travis Kelce is getting older and this is his final season, he should still see a fair number of targets behind Rashee Rice .”

“Round 13: Travis Kelce (TE – KC) The Chiefs didn’t add any new weapons besides Kenneth Walker III .”
Richard Janvrin· Aug 22“Round 10: Travis Kelce (TE – KC) Behind Rashee Rice, the next target will likely still be Travis Kelce, even though he’s probably entering his final NFL season.”
Richard Janvrin· Aug 22“Travis Kelce (TE – KC) The big caveat here is Kelce’s age.”
Ellis Johnson· Aug 19“Kelce should be going much higher in drafts, in my opinion. Getting him at 10.11 isn’t even out of the ordinary right now, which is the crazy part. He has looked awesome in camp, and the Chiefs still lack proven receiving weapons.”
Samwise· Aug 16“279.3 | WR104 Travis Kelce – ADP: 103.6 | TE10 Mahomes is on pace to play in Week 1, which makes him a steal at his ADP despite coming off a knee injury”
Mike Fanelli· Aug 6“Round 13: Travis Kelce (TE – KC) There weren’t many great options at this point in the draft, so why not Travis Kelce?”
Richard Janvrin· Jul 28“Tight End The TE1 cutoffs land at Travis Kelce, who one analyst views as a name to actively avoid, and Kyle Pitts for the other, whose comfort zone is built around target competition within each offense.”
FantasyPros Staff· Jul 25“Travis Kelce (TE – KC) down 4 to No. 106 and Isaiah Likely (TE – NYG) down 5 to No. 123 headline a broader tight end cooling. That’s a genuine positional trend this week: seven of the twelve biggest market-overdraft gaps on the entire board now belong to tight ends.”
FantasyPros Staff· Jul 24“Chris Jones and Travis Kelce are near the end of their careers, while Mahomes is coming into the season recovering from an ACL injury.”
Joe Gibbs· Jun 29“Travis Kelce is another year older after producing a career-low 1.47 yards per route run (YPRR) in 2025.”
Josh Shepardson· Jun 16“When Mahomes was on the field, Kelce was firmly behind Rashee Rice in target share — 28.7% to 18.8%.”
Richard Janvrin· Jun 9“Last season, he caught 76 passes on 108 targets for 851 yards and five touchdowns. Kelce's catches went down, but his yardage and touchdowns did go up.”
Richard Janvrin· Jun 9
“Liam Coen, directly from the Sean McVay coaching tree, unlocked the Jaguars’ offense and Trevor Lawrence ‘s potential.”
Joshua Poniatowski· Aug 29“Lawrence tallied the following marks through Week 7, with rankings among 34 qualified quarterbacks in parentheses: -0.04 expected points added (EPA) per play (26th) 231.5 passing yards per game (15th) 5.24 adjusted net yards per pass attempt (ANY/A) (25th) 58.7% completion percentage (33rd) 9 passing touchdowns (tied for 18th) 3.5% passing touchdown rate (tied for 24th) 5 interceptions (tied for 26th) 1.9% interception rate (tied for 18th) 40.5% success rate (27th) Lawrence was measurably bad before Jacksonville’s Week 8 bye.”
Josh Shepardson· Aug 26“Furthermore, the veteran was outstanding late in the year when Trevor Lawrence became a league winner. Washington was the WR3 over the final three weeks, averaging 9.7 targets and 21.7 fantasy points per game, totaling 19+ points in all three contests.”

“However, Brenton Strange is in a good offense and completes a stack with Trevor Lawrence and Parker Washington. 14.11: Will Reichard (K – MIN) /15.02: Los Angeles Rams D/ST Subscribe: YouTube | Spotify | Apple Podcasts | iHeart | Castbox | Amazon Music | Podcast Addict | TuneIn window.PLAYERCARDS_CONFIG={affiliateCode:"fpros_cards"};”
Kurt Blakeway· Aug 25“Trevor Lawrence has an ADP of QB10 and is coming off the board around the seventh-round/eighth-round turn.”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 22“The former Clemson star was the QB4 last year, averaging 23.3 fantasy points per game. More importantly, Lawrence played better as the season progressed as he got more comfortable in Liam Coen’s offense.”
Mike Fanelli· Aug 16“Trevor Lawrence lost a phenomenal end-zone threat, one that will be very hard to replace. Those opportunities to score in the end zone may dwindle, and Little would more than likely be the beneficiary.”
Steve Krebs· Aug 16“Lawrence is a locked-in QB1 with tantalizing upside for 2026 with his pass-catching depth chart intact from that stretch run.”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 16“The Jaguars quarterback came close to finishing as fantasy’s best signal-caller last season in just his first year with Liam Coen. From Week 5 onward, Trevor Lawrence outscored all other players at every single position (23 PPG).”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 15“Parker Washington (WR – JAC) “At one point, Parker Washington was seen as the heir apparent to Christian Kirk in a Trevor Lawrence -led offense.”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 11“Trevor Lawrence (JAC) As the 2025 regular season reached its conclusion, Trevor Lawrence was playing the best football of his five-year NFL career under first-year Jaguars head coach Liam Coen.”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 11“Trevor Lawrence (QB – JAX) outscored every player at every position in fantasy points per game from week five onward last year.”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 10“Lawrence also had his best season as a runner, establishing career highs in attempts (82), yards (359) and touchdowns (nine). It took Lawrence a while to fully arrive, but with Coen’s help, the splendidly long-haired quarterback has finally become a top-10 quarterback. There’s high-end QB1 potential here — as we saw late last season — and yet Lawrence is being drafted as a low-end QB1, according to average draft position (ADP).”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 8“Stafford was the QB22 and finished as the QB2, and Lawrence was the QB19 and finished as the QB4. Now they are both back in the bakery because apparently one elite season was not enough to convince fantasy managers.”
Javier Manzanera· Aug 6“TreVeyon Henderson, Trevor Lawrence, Jaxson Dart – 9 T6”
