Brock Bowers (TE – LV) & Trey McBride (TE – ARI) Whether you prefer Brock Bowers or Trey McBride doesn't really matter here. Neither should be drafted quite this highly... Bowers, meanwhile, is onto his third quarterback in three years and will be hoping that Fernando Mendoza adjusts quickly to the NFL. There's no sense in reaching for one of these players.

Bowers' 15.5 PPR in 2024 trails elite WRs/RBs; third QB in three years makes him a second-round target.

Bowers should not be drafted at 1.12 despite being an elite tight end option. In his better 2024 season, he scored 15.5 PPR points per game, below the 18.5+ PPR threshold achieved by five RBs and five WRs in 2024 and 11 in 2025. Tight ends struggle to match top-tier WR and RB scoring, and Bowers faces additional headwinds: he is onto his third quarterback in three years, and new QB Fernando Mendoza must adjust to the NFL. The source advises against reaching for Bowers, as he will likely be available in the second round unless the league has tight end premium scoring.
