Tyler Warren Dynasty Value

The Colts selected Penn State TE Tyler Warren with the No. 14 pick of the 2025 NFL Draft. Warren is coming off a historically productive 2024 season. His 104 catches and 1,233 receiving yards were the fourth biggest tallies by a TE in NCAA history. Warren dominated the Penn State passing game, drawing a 31.6% target share and accounting for 38.5% of the team’s receiving yards. Warren ranked second among 86 qualifying TEs in Pro Football Focus receiving grade and third in yards per route. AND he ran it 26 times for 281 yards and four TDs. Warren lined up all over the formation last year: 45% in-line, 32% slot, 12% backfield, and 10% out wide. He’s at his best with the ball in his hands, averaging 6.9 yards after the catch per reception over the last two seasons. Warren is also comfortable making plays in traffic and has strong hands, dropping just 2.8% of his catchable targets last year. The knocks against him? The big 2024 came in his fifth college season. Warren totaled just 15 catches over his first three years at Penn State and then split time with very similar production as Theo Johnson in 2023. Warren hasn’t been much of a downfield threat, either. He had a career 7.5-yard average target depth, and only 6% of his targets came 20+ yards downfield over the last two seasons. Still, he projects as a unique weapon as a pro with perennial top-five fantasy upside.

Broncos beat writer Nick Kosmider believes TE is the team’s biggest offseason need. In 2024, Denver TEs combined for a league-low 350 yards. Former Saint Adam Trautman led the group with 188 yards in 17 games. Trautman is under contract for 2025, as is TE Nate Adkins. TE Lucas Krull is an exclusive rights free agent, per Spotrac.
