TE Premium Dynasty Rankings 2025

Updated on Thu, 11 Sep 2025

If you’re looking for TE Premium Dynasty Rankings, then you already know that tight ends gain a lot of value. So do these rankings.

Each player’s 3D value starts with our award-winning baseline projection. We use a weighted average of that number from this season plus his past two years of actual production to generate three-year, five-year, and even 10-year projections.

Then we apply position-specific aging curves and expected retirement rates based on two decades of NFL research. Finish with a cross-positional algorithm, and you get the 3D Value+ ratings that determine these dynasty rankings.

Tier breaks give you a clear view of the true value gaps for the TE Premium format.

Tier 1
1	Ja'Marr Chase J Chase CIN WR1	1.01	10	25.5	342	1,042	1,704	3,210	Chase became only the fifth WR ever to win the triple crown in the Super Bowl era, leading the league in receptions, yards and TDs. He outscored Justin Jefferson (the WR2 on the season) by more than four PPR points per game in 2024. It is unlikely that Chase can repeat such a performance in 2025 (or beyond) but he certainly has the talent.	100
5yr. Proj 1704 10yr. Proj 3210 ADP 1.01 Bye 10 Age 25.5 DS Analysis Chase became only the fifth WR ever to win the triple crown in the Super Bowl era, leading the league in receptions, yards and TDs.

2	Justin Jefferson J Jefferson MIN WR2	1.02	6	26.2	310	1,000	1,623	2,973	Jefferson ended 2024 as the PPR WR2, notchign his fifth straight 1,000+ yard season to start his career. With Sam Darnold’s emergence, Jefferson was able to catch 10 TDs, matching his career high. He went for 100+ catches for the third time in his career. Jefferson should continue to flourish alongside young QB J.J. McCarthy.	91
5yr. Proj 1623 10yr. Proj 2973 ADP 1.02 Bye 6 Age 26.2 DS Analysis Jefferson ended 2024 as the PPR WR2, notchign his fifth straight 1,000+ yard season to start his career.

3	CeeDee Lamb C Lamb DAL WR3	1.06	10	26.4	321	985	1,596	2,948	Even with QB Dak Prescott missing most of 2024, Lamb ended the year as the PPR WR5. Lamb had double-digit targets in six of his nine games and was a WR2 or better in those six. The high volume of targets should continue with Lamb under contract through 2028.	90
5yr. Proj 1596 10yr. Proj 2948 ADP 1.06 Bye 10 Age 26.4 DS Analysis Even with QB Dak Prescott missing most of 2024, Lamb ended the year as the PPR WR5. Lamb had double-digit targets in six of his nine games and was a WR2 or better in those six. The high volume of targets should continue with Lamb under contract through 2028.

4	Malik Nabers M Nabers NYG WR4	1.05	14	22.1	305	924	1,578	3,177	Despite having Daniel Jones, Drew Lock, and Tommy DeVito, Nabers ended 2024 as the PPR WR7 in points per game. This included five weeks as a top-10 scorer at the position. He commands volume and showcases a complex route tree from short screens to deep routes. He's a star in the making if the Giants can find a QB.	89

5	Bijan Robinson B Robinson ATL RB1	1.03	5	23.6	315	907	1,459	2,452	Robinson profiled as the best RB prospect since Saquon Barkley. Thickly built and explosive, the Texas product simply never earned a consistent role under HC Arthur Smith. With Smith out of town, Robinson's production exploded to 1,881 total yards and 15 TDs in 2024. He's on track to remain a clear RB1 for the forseeable future	85

6	Ashton Jeanty A Jeanty LVR RB2	1.08	8	21.8	277	849	1,416	2,597	Jeanty went from a 1,900 total yard sophomore season to a 2,700 total yard junior season. He boasts elite contact balance, burst, and receiving ability. Jeanty’s landing spot in Vegas should support some massive workloads over the next few seasons.	82
5yr. Proj 1416 10yr. Proj 2597 ADP 1.08 Bye 8 Age 21.8 DS Analysis Jeanty went from a 1,900 total yard sophomore season to a 2,700 total yard junior season.

7	Puka Nacua P Nacua LAR WR5	1.11	8	24.3	315	916	1,501	2,807	Nacua dealt with knee issues in the preseason and early in 2024. Still, he ended six of his 10 full games as a top-20 PPR WR. He should retain the target lead in the short term, even after the arrival of WR Davante Adams. We'll also see how L.A. approaches the QB spot with Matthew Stafford entering his age 37 season.	81
5yr. Proj 1501 10yr. Proj 2807 ADP 1.11 Bye 8 Age 24.3 DS Analysis Nacua dealt with knee issues in the preseason and early in 2024. Still, he ended six of his 10 full games as a top-20 PPR WR.

8	Jahmyr Gibbs J Gibbs DET RB3	1.04	8	23.4	300	874	1,408	2,347	Despite a slow start, Gibbs largely delivered as a rookie RB. He averaged 5.2 YPC and popped in 10 TDs on 182 attempts, adding 52 receptions. His production reached new heights in 2024, and he proved more than capable as a workhorse back following a late-season injury to David Montgomery. Only 23, Gibbs shouldn't slow down any time soon	80

9	Nico Collins N Collins HOU WR6	2.02	6	26.4	301	858	1,390	2,568	A hamstring injury knocked Collins out for part of 2024, but he was still the PPR WR8 in points per game. And that was despite a down year for the Texans' passing game. Collins has now shown two years of top production and is under contract through 2027.	72

10	Brian Thomas Jr. B Thomas Jr. JAC WR7	1.12	8	22.9	292	804	1,336	2,595	Thomas Jr. surprised almost everyone by having an incredible rookie season, even when Mac Jones came in at QB. He ended the season as the PPR WR4 with five weeks as a top-10 WR. With a new coach and OC coming in, Thomas should be the de facto top option with hopefully an even better offensive system.	68

Tier 1
11	Brock Bowers B Bowers LVR TE1	1.10	8	22.8	318	865	1,422	2,589	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.	66

12	De'Von Achane D Achane MIA RB4	2.05	12	23.9	292	749	1,177	1,936	Achane's rushing efficiency hit a snag in year two. But his receiving work went through the roof: 78 catches, 592 yards, and 6 TDs. Another RB1 season is in play for 2025, although we'll see if Miami looks to work in more of second-year RB Jaylen Wright	63

13	Saquon Barkley S Barkley PHI RB5	1.07	9	28.6	318	750	1,152	1,900	Barkley hit as our 2022 Comeback Pick. 2023 turned up an ugly QB situation and poor efficiency on strong volume. Barkley expressed interest in returning to New York but ultimately joined a superior environment in Philly. From there, he enjoyed a historic 2024 with 2,005 yards and 15 total TDs. Another 1-2 seasons of top-end RB1 production are reasonable	63

14	Amon-Ra St. Brown A St. Brown DET WR8	1.09	8	25.8	274	816	1,317	2,300	The Lions' offensive explosion favored St. Brown once again as he ended the season the PPR WR5 in points per game. It was boom-or-bust weekly with six WR1 weeks, but also five weeks at WR3 or worse. We don't love the loss of top OC Ben Johnson -- but St. Brown's volume should stick around going forward.	63

15	Trey McBride T McBride ARI TE2	2.12	8	25.8	306	811	1,320	2,453	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.	61

16	Drake London D London ATL WR9	2.06	5	24.1	288	755	1,259	2,417	London certainly saw a resurgence under OC Zac Robinson, but QB Kirk Cousins' regression still limited the ceiling. After Michael Penix took over, London averaged 13 targets per game, so the future could be very bright. Despite the tribulations, London ended 2024 as the PPR WR10.	61

17	Omarion Hampton O Hampton LAC RB6	2.10	12	22.4	241	736	1,158	1,969	Hampton has carried the North Carolina offense for two years (including when Drake Maye was the QB). The former four-star recruit tallied two straight years of 1,500+ rushing yards and 15 TDs, and he brings solid receiving potential. A shifty runner who can hit the home run, Hampton showed his athleticism by crushing the Combine with a 4.48 40-yard dash and a 38" vertical. He landed in a dreamy long-term spot with HC Jim Harbaugh and the Chargers. Hampton should work in tandem with Najee Harris this fall – and then handle a clear lead role in ‘26	60

18	Ladd McConkey L McConkey LAC WR10	2.07	12	23.8	256	753	1,253	2,327	McConkey exceeded expectations and ended 2024 as the PPR WR12 overall. He played through knee and toe injuries throughout the season, missing only one game of his rookie season. McConkey had three top-10 WR performances during the season. The Chargers low pass rate limited his ceiling at times, but McConkey appears locked in as Justin Herbert’s top target for the future.	58

19	Breece Hall B Hall NYJ RB7	3.09	9	24.3	237	681	1,101	1,946	The 36th overall pick, Hall looked to be on his way to an excellent rookie year. Then came an ACL tear in Week 7. Only 22, the Iowa State product returned for Week 1, 2023, proving both durable and effective in a tough situation. A largely ineffective Aaron Rodgers limited Hall this past fall, while the RB also battled through a knee injury. 2025 turns up a contract year as he competes with Braelon Allen for carries	56

Brown A Brown PHI WR11	2.11	9	28.2	281	756	1,212	2,154	Brown missed a few weeks in 2024 due to a hamstring injury and had to deal with an Eagles offense that shifted to the run, but he still ended as the PPR WR13 in points per game. He’s entering his 28-year old season, and his contract runs through 2029.	56

Then came a nightmare 2024 that included multiple lower-body injuries (and only 50 total carries). He'll be a rebound candidate in 2025 -- but durability concerns figure to remain for the 29-year-old	55

22	Garrett Wilson G Wilson NYJ WR12	3.06	9	25.1	230	726	1,194	2,286	Wilson’s talent is clear; he had a stretch of three top-five PPR WR performances within five weeks last season. With WR Davante Adams off the roster, Wilson's lone concern remains QB stability.	54

23	Jonathan Taylor J Taylor IND RB9	3.04	11	26.6	255	663	1,030	1,734	Ankle issues and a sluggish Colts offense forced a major drop in production in 2022. Injuries and a contract dispute made headlines in 2023, but when healthy, Taylor flashed his high-end talent. Taylor missed three games in 2024 but remained busy on a per game basis (23 touches per). The former Round 2 pick is under contract for two more seasons	52

24	Tetairoa McMillan T McMillan CAR WR13	3.11	14	22.4	234	688	1,165	2,273	At Arizona, McMillan tallied two straight years of 1,300+ yards and 8+ TDs. He brings a clear X WR skill set at 6’5, 212 pounds. He supplies some deep speed but still has the footwork and route tree to freeze defenders. With long arms and a good catch radius, McMillan boasts tremendous fantasy upside. The Carolina landing spot supplies a path to WR1 targets within a couple of seasons.	51
