Dallas Goedert Opens Regular Season With Plenty Of Target Competition
Dallas Goedert will travel to Brazil to take on the Green Bay Packers in the regular season opener on Friday night. The 29-year-old suffered an oblique injury a few weeks ago, but returned to the practice field Tuesday and is slated to suit up on Friday. Goedert had a down year in 2023, finishing with his lowest fantasy point total since 2020 when he played in just 11 games. Goedert is no stranger to target competition and has been able to deliver for fantasy managers at times, but he has been an inconsistent option. After the acquisition of former Washington Commanders wide receiver Jahan Dotson a few weeks ago and the addition of running back Saquon Barkley this past offseason, Goedert is in the most crowded receiver room of his career. The veteran is a threat to score a touchdown every week as apart of the Eagles offense, but he is going to be tough to trust on a weekly basis. Fantasy managers should consider him a fringe TE1 in Week 1 against the Packers.

Dallas Goedert Could Remain An Eagle
Dallas Goedert, Philadelphia Eagles general manager Howie Roseman was non-committal about whether he might still be traded, per the team's transcript. "Dallas is part of the team as we speak," said Roseman. "Obviously, as we go forward, we're going to continue to address things on this team and right now nothing further." There's been speculation that Philadelphia would move on from the veteran, due to his $11.7 million cap hit and zero guaranteed money heading into 2025. However, the Eagles did not opt to draft a tight end in a class with a myriad of intriguing names; instead, they brought in free agent tight ends Kylen Granson and Harrison Bryant. Teammate Grant Calcaterra will return for his fourth season with the team, too, but Goedert is far and away the best of that bunch. If he can stay healthy, 2025 could be a productive season for him, though that seems unlikely as he's played just one full season in seven years as a pro.

Eagles May Be Interested In Future Draft Picks For Dallas Goedert
Dallas Goedert is a name to watch on the trade market as the 2025 NFL draft approaches, sources tell FOX Sports' Jordan Schultz. Interested teams think that the Eagles would be open to future draft picks in exchange for Goedert if they don't receive any 2025 draft capital. The 30-year-old veteran is heading into the final year of his deal in 2025 and could be looking for a new contract. Goedert helped the Eagles win the Super Bowl over the Kansas City Chiefs in convincing fashion, but he had only 42 receptions on 52 targets for 496 yards and two touchdowns in 10 regular-season games in 2024 while missing time with hamstring and knee injuries. His 496 receiving yards were his fewest since his rookie season in 2018. Goedert has been a borderline TE1/2 in fantasy, but a trade away from Philly could actually benefit him.

Philadelphia Expecting Fourth-Round Pick For Dallas Goedert
Dallas Goedert in a potential trade. Anderson reports the team would be willing to accept a pick from the 2026 or 2027 draft. Furthermore, a lower pick and salary adjustment from some teams could get the job done. Health has been a knock on Goedert. The 30-year-old veteran missed seven games in 2024 while battling through knee and hamstring injuries and has played just one full season -- his first -- despite seven years in the league. However, he's been productive when healthy and even had a ten-catch, 170-yard performance as recent as Week 3 this past season. Trades in the NFL don't typically go at the asking price, but a fourth-round pick seems reasonable for a player who still has some juice left in the tank. Additionally, several teams could use a dynamic receiving tight end.

Dallas Goedert Reportedly On The Trade Block
Dallas Goedert is reportedly on the trade block, according to team beat reporter Eliot Shorr-Parks. With the new league year set to begin on Wednesday, the Eagles are making no secret about the fact that they would like to move Goedert, with Parks stating that it feels like the tight end's time with the team is nearing an end. Goedert has been productive when on the field for the Eagles, but he has struggled with injuries, missing 23 games over his seven-year career. Veteran Grant Calcaterra is listed as the team's No. 2 tight end on the depth chart and showed some flashes in 2024 when Goedert was out, but the Eagles could also opt to address the position in the 2025 draft in what is a strong year for tight-end prospects.
