It is tight end season on the Dynasty Nerds pod as Rich Dotson, Matt O'Hara, and Garret Price dig into 2026 TE dynasty buys and sells at one of fantasy’s most volatile positions.
If you need affordable production, the crew makes the case for Mark Andrews as a low risk bet with Lamar Jackson still leaning on the position and a contract extension adding security. They also highlight AJ Barner as a cheap stash with youth, steady growth, and a scheme fit that could keep the arrow pointing up. For upside on a discount, David Njoku comes up as a player the dynasty community has cooled on, but who could rebound in a better offense if free agency breaks right.
The big sell call is Jake Ferguson, a tight end who may be priced at last year’s touchdowns and volume rather than repeatable traits. Sam LaPorta also gets the sell label due to back surgery risk and a Detroit offense that may not feed tight ends like it once did. Finally, Brenton Strange is flagged as a surprising TE13 price in an offense that has not consistently funneled targets to the position.
