Dalton Kincaid is a year-four breakout candidate following the Travis Kelce model; Kelce had his first 15+ PPG season in year four, and Kincaid is now in year four and 'looks unbelievable.' The Bills drafted him in 2023 first round to replicate Kelce's impact after Kelce torched them in consecutive playoff games. Through two weeks: 5 catches, 130 yards on 6 targets in Week 1 (historically best Bills tight end performance in ~50 years) and 7 catches, 95 yards, 1 TD on 8 targets in Week 2. Kincaid is 'completely locked in' with Josh Allen and forms a league-winning stack candidate.

Kincaid was characterized as a swing-for-the-fences tight end play with potential for a career year, operating as a number-two target in Buffalo. Projected as a potential 12.5 points per game in PPR scoring; drafted at the 9/10 turn over George Kittle and Jaylen Hertz as an upside swing at tight end, enabling double tight end lineups with Kyle Pitts. The source preferred Kincaid over safer tight end options like Isaiah Likely and Dallas Goedert, viewing him as higher upside despite the risk profile.

Kincaid is a small-miss, big-hit tight end with top-4 to top-5 upside at current ADP. Over the last two years, he's posted 27% target per route run and phenomenal yards per route run, metrics in line with Trey McBride and Brock Bowers; however, Kincaid achieves this at an average depth of target over 8 yards, whereas McBride and Bowers operate under 7 yards, making him unique in combining high target per route run with deep target depth. Camp reports suggest he's progressing from a 55% snap count toward 70–75%, which represents a major profit opportunity at his current ADP. He dealt with a PCL injury last year that did not require surgery and has settled into the tight end 10–12 range depending on format, representing an appealing entry point and the easiest it's ever been to draft him.
