sleeper tight ends to target abound in 2024, with Chig Okonkwo, Brenton Strange and Isaiah Likely leading the charge. Okonkwo exploded in the Titans’ late-season run, flashing elite speed and per-play efficiency, and playoff production that suggested a real fantasy ceiling if his snap rate stays high. Strange seized a near-full-time role for Jacksonville when Evan Engram was out, delivering strong weeks and a clear path to a larger target share. Baltimore’s Likely emerged as a high-upside handcuff who can swing fantasy weeks when Andrews isn’t on the field. The piece notes how ADP compression at TE leaves real sleepers in play, especially on teams willing to feature tight ends in 11/12 personnel and with evolving offensive schemes. The Titans’ and Ravens’ layouts, plus Jacksonville’s rotation change under a new OC, create concrete paths for these players to crack top-12 and top-6 fantasy floors, even in redraft formats.

Fourteen tight ends sit inside the top 121 in ADP, underscoring the volatility and opportunity around the position. Loveland and Warren sit outside the immediate sleepers, but the article highlights that several veterans and mid-draft pieces can pay off if they land on a favorable depth chart or see a boost from injuries. The overall message: read the offense, watch playing time, and pounce on the off-the-radar TE who can anchor a playoff push or provide season-long upside in the late rounds.
