PPR Fantasy Football TE Rankings - Preseason Draft Updates Include George Kittle, Jake Ferguson, Kyle Pitts, Brock Bowers, David Njoku, Luke Musgrave

George Kittle - Fantasy Football Rankings, NFL Injury News, Draft Targets

RotoBaller's updated tight end (TE) PPR fantasy football rankings for 2024 drafts. Identify the top sleepers with our tiered fantasy football TE rankings.

Welcome back fellow RotoBallers to our team's updated PPR fantasy football tight end rankings for 2024 drafts. Week 1 is fast approaching, and we are in the final stretch of the fantasy football draft season. Tight ends have been boom-or-bust over the years, but in 2024, the drop-off in the position doesn't happen until the top nine tight ends are off the draft board.

There is a lot of value in the middle rounds, and fantasy managers don't want to be left scrambling for a TE once it reaches tier five. So let's see where tight ends such as George Kittle, Kyle Pitts, Jake Ferguson, Brock Bowers, Luke Musgrave, and more rank.

These tight end PPR fantasy football rankings are a consensus by NFL lead analysts Nick Mariano, Scott Engel, Andersen Pickard, and Brandon Murchinson. Before the rankings, you'll also see some recent fantasy football news and important NFL headlines for TEs, all of which are accounted for within these updated WR draft rankings. RotoBaller's TE PPR fantasy football rankings are tweaked all preseason long, so bookmark the fantasy football rankings portal and check back regularly for updates.

Jake Ferguson, Dallas Cowboys - Fantasy Football Outlook

After a relatively slow start to the 2023 season, Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson flashed some serious potential in the second half of the season. From Week 8 on, he was the TE7, averaging 11.9 PPR points per game. His route participation increased from 66% before the Cowboys' Week 7 Bye, to 86% after the bye.

For comparison sake, Travis Kelce also had an 86% route participation rate last season. We know Ferguson is going to be utilized as a pass-catching tight end, as evidenced by his utilization in just his second season. In fact, he was 2nd on the team in targets with 102 behind CeeDee Lamb. In the Wild Card game that mattered most for the Cowboys, Ferguson racked up 10 receptions for 93 yards and three touchdowns on 12 targets.

He's earned Dak Prescott's trust, and that's imperative for his success going forward. Those three touchdowns don't show up in the fantasy football stat sheet for Ferguson since they happened in the playoffs, but that's indicative of his role on this team. In fact, he led all tight ends with 25 red zone targets in 2023.

Sam LaPorta, who had 16 red zone targets last season, ended up scoring five more touchdowns than Ferguson. If the Cowboys' 3rd-year tight earns a few more targets and finds paydirt a few more times in 2024, we could be looking at a Top-5 finish at the position.

Brock Bowers, Las Vegas Raiders - Fantasy Football Outlook

The Las Vegas Raiders selected tight end Brock Bowers with the 13th overall pick in April's draft. It was a bit of a surprise given the team had just used a second-round pick on tight end Michael Mayer the previous year. Nonetheless, Bowers takes over as the clear TE1 for Las Vegas. While he is arguably the most talented tight end prospect to come out in recent years, things might be tough in 2024.

The Raiders figure to have a run-oriented offense and Gardner Minshew or Aidan O'Connell as QB1 is less than ideal. There is also significant target competition with Davante Adams and Jakobi Meyers in the mix. Put it all together, and it's hard to envision a highly productive rookie year for Bowers. He's a fantastic dynasty football investment. For redraft purposes though, we may need to brace for a tough rookie year.

Fantasy gamers should not expect a Sam LaPorta-esque rookie breakout as the Raiders' ecosystem is not as friendly as Detroit's was last year. Managers who select Bowers should invest in an additional tight end to hedge against him struggling as a rookie. Bowers is talented, but he's going to need a lot to go his way to be a difference-maker in 2024.

- David Ventresca, RotoBaller

George Kittle, San Francisco 49ers - Fantasy Football Outlook

San Francisco 49ers tight end George Kittle quietly put together a very nice 2023 season. Despite seeing just 5.6 targets per game, he finished as the TE5, averaging 10.7 half PPR points per game. He did so on elite efficiency, averaging career-highs in yards per target (11.3) and yards per catch (15.7).

Per PlayerProfiler, Kittle led all tight ends in yards per route run (2.3), was 2nd in average target distance (9.5), and 3rd in yards after the catch (5.4 per target). Kittle isn't the most consistent producer at the tight end spot, but he consistently produces spike weeks. Last season, he had seven games of 16+ PPR points.

In comparison, the overall TE1 Sam LaPorta had six games of 16+ PPR points, while TE2 Travis Kelce had just four. With a 91% snap share and 95.3% route participation in 2023, Kittle's opportunity doesn't appear to be tailing off in the slightest. Consider him a mid-range TE1 for the 2024 season with weekly top-3 upside at the position.
