This is the biggest projection edge on the list. The Giants were not bad against tight ends over the full 2025 season, allowing the 10th-fewest yards and sixth-fewest touchdowns to the position. The interesting part came late. From Weeks 12 through 18, New York allowed the most yards per target and the 14th-most fantasy points per opportunity to tight ends.

Ferguson's TE6 projection vs. TE14 ECR is the biggest edge; pressure can funnel targets to him at the goal line.

Ferguson is TE16 on Yahoo and TE14 in ECR but projects as TE6 with a 17% boom rate and 52% hit rate against New York—the biggest projection edge on the list. The Giants allowed the 10th-fewest yards and sixth-fewest touchdowns to tight ends over the full 2025 season, but from Weeks 12-18 allowed the most yards per target and 14th-most fantasy points per opportunity to the position. Ferguson caught 9 of 12 targets for 78 yards against the Giants last season. Dallas will be without All-Pro left guard Tyler Smith, while Brian Burns, Abdul Carter, and Kayvon Thibodeaux can pressure Dak Prescott. Ferguson had a 16% target share and 17.6% first-read share last season, then finished second among tight ends in red-zone targets. If Dak needs quick answers, Ferguson is an easy way to neutralize pressure, and his red-zone role gives those targets real touchdown value.
