The tight-end position has been absolutely terrible in 2024, and it’s something many people are talking about for redraft. However, I haven’t seen nearly enough people giving an updated set of dynasty rankings after what we’ve seen this season. To create my rankings, I use advanced premium stats from Fantasy Data, PFF, TeamRankings, sports books, film from All-22, and many other sources. Let’s dive right into these updated, dynasty tight-end rankings & Tiers.

Biggest Riser: Tucker Kraft
There’s one player that we obviously need to talk about, and that’s Tucker Kraft. Kraft has seen an insane rise after taking over the starting job from Luke Musgrave and then posting back-to-back 17+ point games. The battle to become the Packers number two target is wide open with an injury to Christian Watson and some controversy surrounding Romeo Doubs.
The tight-end landscape is so uncertain that I’m willing to bet on a talented prospect who’s going to be connected to Jordan Love. I’ll be honest, I thought ranking Kraft at six was a little crazy but once you actually compare him to the players behind him it makes sense. These players all either haven’t produced or they don’t have the same long term value due to their age. I see Kraft becoming a George Kittle type player, who could rise even further up these rankings.
