Draft Note by Matt Jones
Week 1 vs Carolina Panthers
Taysom Hill is officially a tight end, for now, at least. He had a career year as a receiver, tallying 291 yards on 40 targets. Hill also found the endzone a half-dozen times in 2023.
Hill has a chance to score a touchdown week in and week out, which is good enough for a tight end most weeks. He comes in as our TE13 this week, putting him right on the edge of the roster bubble in most leagues.

Draft note
Of all the tight ends, Taysom Hill’s fantasy value depends most on the scoring format. In standard scoring, he was the TE7 last year. In half-PPR and full-PPR, he was the TE10 and TE15, respectively, so in full PPR formats, he’s more of a TE2-type, but he’s quite startable in standard and half-PPR formats. With a new offensive coordinator (Klint Kubiak) in town, Hill’s role is very much up in the air, but HC Dennis Allen said that it would be “very similar to what we’ve seen in the past.” Hill said that he had a “positive” conversation with Kubiak about his new role, so he seems like he’ll be content with his usage. ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reported in early August that the Saints are “leaning into the Taysom Hill experience.” Of course, Hill is not even TE-eligible in some leagues, but that’s where we rank/project him since that’s the only position where he’s startable.
