# Dallas Goedert NFL player. Position: **TE**. Team: **PHI**. ## Quick Facts - **Position:** TE - **Team:** PHI (Philadelphia Eagles) - **Bye week (2026):** 10 - **FantasyPros PPR rank (pulled 2026-05-21):** 127 ## 2026 Outlook Goedert is in his ninth season as an Eagle and remains stable with Jalen Hurts; he's produced TE1 fantasy finishes for six consecutive seasons. However, Eagles signed him to a one-year contract (not a multi-year extension), positioning themselves for future flexibility. As of early March 2026, the Eagles are preparing for Goedert's departure alongside Grant Calcaterra and Kylen Granson, with front office exploring converting receivers to tight end and eyeing the draft for next-generation TE talent similar to Goedert's athleticism profile. Goedert's role is secure for 2026, but 2027 succession planning is actively underway (per One Answer To Eagles' Tight End Shortage Could Already Be On Roster). If A.J. Brown departs as rumored, Eagles will have cap space and draft capital to target a next-generation TE (per Ranking 2026 NFL Draft tight end landing spots for dynasty fantasy football). **New offensive coordinator adjustment (June 2026):** Goedert is embracing the transition to new OC systems entering training camp, emphasizing his track record of success in multiple schemes and adaptability. Recognizing that the TE position league-wide continues to evolve toward increased pass-game involvement (1,000-yard receiving seasons becoming more common), Goedert is positioned to benefit from offensive coordinators who emphasize TE receiving upside rather than pure run-game blocking. His positive mindset about system changes suggests he's mentally prepared for a potentially higher volume passing role in 2026 (per As the NFL offense evolves, so does Dallas Goedert). **SI value projection (June 2026):** Sports Illustrated identifies Goedert at TE #15 ADP (#136 overall) as a significant value play. He posted a career year in 2025 with 11 TDs and 60 receptions. With A.J. Brown (121 targets) now departed, Goedert becomes Philadelphia's largest receiving threat. The Eagles ranked 4th easiest schedule for tight ends in 2026, positioning him to outperform his draft cost substantially. Expected usage should only continue to climb as the primary receiving option. (per Kyler Murray Headlines 4 Fantasy Football Must-Draft ADP Values for 2026) **FantasyPros Top-5 Potential Profile (April 2026):** FantasyPros identifies Goedert as one of four "TE2s with top-5 potential," noting his TE5 finish in 2025 was partly driven by 11 touchdown receptions—a number unlikely to repeat. However, Goedert has consistently finished as a top-12 TE in fantasy points per game in seven of his eight seasons, making him a strong red-zone threat. The uncertain futures of A.J. Brown and the "tush push" add wrinkles, potentially working in Goedert's favor in the red zone. His last season without A.J. Brown (a career-best 830 yards and 14.8 yards per reception) demonstrates his ceiling when he's the focal point. At 31 years old, Goedert has never relied on elite athleticism—his size and sure hands are his calling cards, and QB Jalen Hurts trusts him consistently. If Goedert can climb back toward TE1 production, he offers a safer path to top-five finishes than other aging TE2s. (per 4 TE2s With Top-5 Potential (2026 Fantasy Football) - FantasyPros) Primary tight end entering 2026, on one-year deal ($7M). Behind him: Grant Calcaterra (returning veteran) and rookie second-round pick Eli Stowers (from Vanderbilt, receiving threat over blocker). In Mannion's Shanahan-style run scheme, Goedert will be utilized primarily as a run-game playmaker (blocking) and intermediate-route option, not a featured pass-catcher. Stowers offers a longer-term receiving-upside profile and could steal snaps as a pass-game weapon, particularly in red zone (per Biggest Eagles questions by position in 2026: Offense). Training camp mailbag projects Goedert to contribute ~700 receiving yards in 2026, securing his role as Philadelphia's primary pass-game tight end (per Eagles mailbag: Backup QB competition, safety help, potential Jalen Carter contract). Zach Ertz (35, recovering from ACL) expressed openness to an Eagles reunion but is unsigned and rehabbing. Goedert is confirmed as Philadelphia's TE1 for 2026, with Ertz positioned only as a depth option if he clears medical and joins the team on a low-cost deal. (per Zach Ertz Open To Eagles Return; TE's ACL Recovery Ahead Of Schedule). **ESPN TE Rankings Snub (July 2026):** Goedert was notably absent from ESPN's top-10 tight end rankings created by polling NFL execs, coaches, and scouts, despite posting 11 receiving TDs and 60 catches in 2025—a career year. The top-10 list (Brock Bowers, Trey McBride, George Kittle, Sam LaPorta, Tyler Warren, Tucker Kraft, Colton Loveland, Kyle Pitts, Mark Andrews, Travis Kelce) suggests the league sees Goedert as a productive older TE but not elite. At 31 years old, Goedert's continued productivity doesn't match the athleticism and ceiling of younger options, making him grouped with "also receiving votes" alongside Dalton Kincaid, Pat Friermuth, Cole Kmet, Jake Ferguson, and Harold Fannin Jr. This ranking validates concerns about his aging profile and potential ceiling compression in PPR formats (per Eagles' Dallas Goedert Gets Disappointing News With NFL Survey). ## Recent News - 2026-06-29 — Why Dallas Goedert Should Thrive In Eagles' Tight End-Centric Offense This Year (Why Dallas Goedert Should Thrive In Eagles' Tight End-Centric Offense This Year) - 2026-06-29 — Eagles 2026 most important list: Dallas Goedert (Eagles 2026 most important list: Dallas Goedert) - 2026-07-11 — Eagles’ Dallas Goedert Gets Disappointing News With NFL Survey (Eagles’ Dallas Goedert Gets Disappointing News With NFL Survey) - 2026-07-10 — Eagles’ Dallas Goedert Gets Disappointing News With NFL Survey (Eagles’ Dallas Goedert Gets Disappointing News With NFL Survey) - 2026-06-28 — Tight End Rankings for 2026 Fantasy Football: Does Dallas Goedert Rise Without A.J.
