Noah Fant 2024 Fantasy Football Outlook: Potential Tight End Sleeper In New Look Seahawks Offense
6 months agoSeattle Seahawks tight end Noah Fant enters the 2024 season as an intriguing sleeper. The former first-round pick has flashed potential throughout his career but has yet to put it together for fantasy. Will this be the year? Fant's physical prowess is truly exceptional. Standing 6'4" and weighing 250 pounds, he blazes through a 40-yard dash in just 4.50 seconds. This remarkable combination of size and speed makes him a nightmare for linebackers and safeties. In 2023, he may have only recorded 32 receptions for 414 yards and no touchdowns, but as the TE1 on his team, the potential for a breakout season is undeniable. With the likes of DK Metcalf, Tyler Lockett, and Jaxon Smith-Njigba demanding defensive attention, Fant could find himself in favorable matchups down the middle. Adding to this potential advantage is the arrival of Seattle's new offensive coordinator, Ryan Grubb, who hails from the University of Washington, a team renowned for its prolific passing offense. This strategic shift could significantly boost Fant's fantasy value in the upcoming season. With an ADP of TE28, which aligns with RotoBaller's TE ranking of 26, Fant is a low-risk, high-reward pick for those willing to gamble, especially in tight end premium leagues.
