RotoWire NFL Articles on Isaiah Likely
From the article
Isaiah Likely, Giants - ADP: TE14... Likely has the sort of YAC ability to make the most out of any low-aDOT/screen targets thrown his way, and his penchant for getting open during the scramble drill could mesh pretty damn great with Jaxson Dart... I have Likely ranked ahead of older, more expensive, and lamer options like Kelce, Ferguson and Andrews.
STACKED’s take
Likely's YAC ability and lack of target competition make him a top TE sleeper ahead of Kelce and Andrews.
Giants TE Isaiah Likely is ranked as a top tight end sleeper for 2026 at TE14 ADP (126.8). Despite finishing 2025 with just 4.4 PPR points per game (TE43) due to a broken foot in August, Hartitz projects significant upside under John Harbaugh in a wide-open passing game with potential absence of No. 1 WR Malik Nabers early in the season. Likely's YAC ability and scramble-drill effectiveness could mesh well with QB Jaxson Dart; he has virtually no target competition at TE or WR and carries one of only eight tight end contracts worth at least $40M, suggesting organizational commitment. Hartitz ranks Likely ahead of older, more expensive options like Travis Kelce, Kyle Ferguson, and Mark Andrews.
