Fantasy Football Draft Advice: NFL Preseason Takeaways

Tight End

Gerald Everett has now played more snaps with starting QB Caleb Williams than Cole Kmet has in each of the Bears’ first two preseason games. And obviously, Bears WRs D.J. Moore, Keenan Allen and Rome Odunze are collectively going to take up a lot of the oxygen in Chicago’s passing game. Don’t bother drafting a Bears tight end.

With a 6-foot-7 frame and 4.51 speed, Colts TE Jelani Woods was an intriguing sleeper a year ago — well, intriguing to me, at least. Woods missed the entire 2023 season with a hamstring injury. He’s now battling for a roster spot, and he left Indy’s second preseason game with a toe injury. It’s probably safe to leave him off your draft cheat sheet.
