RotoBaller releases a fresh, 2025 PPR TE rankings ladder led by T.J. Hockenson, George Kittle, and Travis Kelce, with Sam LaPorta and Mark Andrews right behind. The midrange tier stacks Dalton Kincaid, Evan Engram, and Darren Waller, while Dalton Schultz and Jonnu Smith offer solid late-round upside. Brenton Strange, Jake Ferguson, Cade Otton, and Ja'Tavion Sanders pop as intriguing sleeper options as the season nears.

Off-season drama—Pitts potentially on the move and Jonnu Smith reuniting with Arthur Smith—shapes how managers attack TE drafts. Additional rookie and near-rookie targets like Tyler Warren and Mason Taylor draw interest for deeper leagues. Injuries, depth charts, and the rookie class could unlock unexpected weekly TE value in 2025.
