Ts and Cs apply. TE rankings and TE tiers: Ian Hartitz ranks his top 30 tight ends for Week 5 of fantasy football and sorts them into four tiers. Isaiah Likely is the TE6 with 36 targets, nine more than Malik Nabers, Tyler Higbee is the TE13 with a full-time role and a Monday night shootout against the Bills, and Mike Gesicki is the TE15 in a revenge game that still feels a little trappy. After the first three tiers Ian stops for a bigger question about the position. TIER 1: THE BIG FIVE Trey McBride, Brock Bowers, George Kittle, Sam LaPorta, Dalton Kincaid. Key question: how special have these hot starts been? McBride's 69.2 PPR points are the most by a tight end through four weeks in at least five years, and Bowers' 24.1 per game is the best single-season mark in NFL history (small sample). TIER 2: TE1S WITH A QUESTION MARK Isaiah Likely, Tucker Kraft, Juwan Johnson, Kenyon Sadiq, Harold Fannin Jr., Tyler Warren, T.J. Hockenson. Key question: who have been the best and worst defenses against tight ends? Spoiler: it is the Lions, with the Chiefs not far behind. TIER 3: STREAMERS AND POTENTIAL FLEX PLAYS Tyler Higbee, Colston Loveland, Mike Gesicki, Jake Ferguson, Michael Mayer, Brenton Strange, AJ Barner, Greg Dulcich, Mark Andrews, Pat Freiermuth. Key question: who has the best and worst upcoming matchups? Through Week 10 the Steelers, Rams, 49ers, Jets and Vikings have the easiest TE schedules; the Raiders, Bills, Commanders, Jaguars and Colts the toughest. TIER 4: THE OTHER GUYS Kyle Pitts, Cade Otton, Oronde Gadsden II, Chig Okonkwo, Dalton Schultz, Hunter Henry, Darnell Washington, Zach Ertz.
