Other Positions: QB | RB | WR | TE
11. Chig Okonkwo, TE, Redskins. Bye: 7.

Chig Okonkwo is coming off a decent season, considering that he was working with a rookie quarterback. He’ll do better with Jayden Daniels.

Projected 2026 Fantasy Points: 121.

12. T.J. Hockenson, TE, Vikings. Bye: 6.

Projected 2026 Fantasy Points: 118.

13. Brenton Strange, TE, Jaguars. Bye: 7.

18. Jake Ferguson, TE, Cowboys. Bye: 14.

20. David Njoku, TE, Chargers. Bye: 7.
