Average depth of target: tight ends ranked

How far downfield his targets are, on average. It is a role, not a grade.

Why the box score misses it: Receiving yards blend depth with everything else.

Best so far: Dalton Kincaid (BUF), 12.6 yds. A typical tight end is 6.3 yds. Players need at least 12 targets to qualify, so nobody is ranked on a handful of plays.

How to read this table
  • The number on the left is the league rank among tight ends, even when the list is filtered to one team.
  • “Against the league” draws each player on the same strip: the ends are the 10th-best and 90th-best player, the shaded stretch is the middle half, and the tick is the median. Right is always better.
  • “Lately” is the change in grade between a player's last 2 games and the games before them. The tag says whether the change is bigger than what a few plays could cause.
  • Tick “Show the box score” to put the traditional totals next to the advanced number and sort by either.
