STACKED’s take
Elite rookie TE facing QB downgrade; still best in class but situation deteriorating.
Rookie TE whose situation is changing going forward, specifically without Daniel Jones at QB; Riley Leonard (also banged up) is replacing Jones. Warren has been afforded more opportunities than Harold Fannin due to playing in a top-10 passing efficiency offense (Colts) versus the Browns' 32nd-ranked passing offense, and has elite per-route metrics (20.4% targets per route). However, the source notes his per-route efficiency is being matched by Fannin despite these advantages. Through the first six weeks, Warren was hyped as the next Brock Bowers or Sam Laporta and has lived up to that billing; valued as a top dynasty tight end prospect. Despite the recent QB downgrade and being on IR, Ron Stewart maintains Warren has been the best rookie tight end so far and ranks him highly for 2026 dynasty purposes, noting he should be given grace through the season's stretch despite a six-target, two-catch, 15-yard performance in his most recent game.
