| Andrew Erickson FantasyPros | I was pretty sure that Rob Gronkowski would retire after Tom Brady made his initial decision to up his cleats, but it seems more likely than not Gronk will also return to Tampa in 2022. The Buccaneers tight end was TE3 in points per game and was unstoppable after returning from his injury in Week 11. From then onward, the big-bodied tight end averaged 8.4 targets and 77 receiving yards per game. He had just one game with fewer than eight targets. If and when he makes the announcement he is back in Tampa, he will be a top-6 tight end in fantasy football. | |
| Derek Brown FantasyPros | Assuming Irv Smith is at full health to start the season, he could compete with Adam Thielen as the second target in Minnesota behind Justin Jefferson. Let's not forget that Smith was eighth in yards per target and second in QBR when targeted among tight ends in 2020. The Vikings surprised everyone by ranking 12th in neutral passing rate and eighth in neutral pace last year. If that repeats, the volume will be there for Smith. As an unrestricted free agent in 2023, Smith should be heavily motivated to post career-best numbers. | |
| Derek Lofland FantasyPros | Gronk missed 5 games with injury and still posted 665 yards from scrimmage and 6 TDs. He should be a TE1, assuming he comes back in 2022, which I expect him to do. | |
| Wolf of Roto Street Roto Street Journal | W/ Brady back it's all-but-certain he'll return to TB where he was the TE3 in PPG last year and looked completely rejuvenated -- although rumblings are he's "truly undecided" -- can't rank too high til that's settled | |
| Pat Fitzmaurice FantasyPros | Touted as a potential breakout candidate last summer, Smith missed the entire 2021 season with a torn meniscus. Has the potential to be a significant contributor on a team with a narrow target tree. | |
