Evan Engram finished as the TE2 in fantasy football in 2023. Where should fantasy managers target Engram in 2024 drafts?
BALLER MOVE: Target Around ~75 Overall
CURRENT ADP: ~73
ANALYSIS: Is Christian Kirk or Evan Engram the PPR king in Jacksonville?
The tight end led the position in targets (143), receptions (114), and routes run (603) en route to a TE2 finish. He ran a route on over 97% of Jacksonville's passing plays. Touchdowns (four) held him back from the top TE spot.
But he was the TE7 through Week 12, the game before an injury ended Kirk's season. After that, Engram secured all his touchdowns and recorded double-digit receptions in three of six games. His average was 10.1 targets without Kirk versus 7.4 with the slot receiver. A similar story played out in the Jaguars' preseason game against Atlanta when Kirk did not play.
4 catches for 27 yards and 2 TDs 🔥

Kirk is back and healthy, alongside new receivers Brian Thomas Jr. and Gabe Davis. The outside duo replaces Calvin Ridley and Zay Jones. The target competition inside will be one to watch, especially if Kirk comes off the field during two-receiver sets. Engram is the TE8 off the board, similar to his pace last season with a healthy Kirk.
