Our article Tiers and How to Use Them During Your Draft provides an explanation of fantasy football tiers.
Rankings have their place, except they lack a piece of essential information: how big is the gap between RB8 and RB9? To understand this, we break the straightforward ranks into groups of similarly talented players, called tiers.
For example, the elite tight ends of 2021 are Travis Kelce, Darren Waller, and George Kittle. After that, a new tier begins. While there is general consensus in expert rankings regarding the top three at the position, there is more debate when it comes to who should be the fourth tight end off draft boards.
Continuing our collaborative series, we’re asking our writers for their TE4 of the 2021 fantasy football season.
